I absolutely love this rug! It is EXACTLY what I needed to fit the space I’m using it in and the design is beautiful! It’s soft under the feet, but in my opinion, it should not be used in a high traffic area (unless shoes are being removed) I’m going to buy a larger one for the front door, but we will be entering our home through the rear. This is my 3rd purchase and I’m already looking for more items as we are remodeling and redecorating.
