Very nice navy carpet. (I wanted something to match kitchen cabinets in an adjacent room.) The color is more a muted navy than a bright navy. I bought both a 9x12 and a 2x8 and the color matches nicely. The pattern is there but also more muted with the intensity of the whitenavy changing. Not thick enough to use without a carpet pad but not super thin. Have vacuumed several times so far and I’m not noticing threads pulling loose. Only complaint was that the 9x11 was folded in half before rolling and the resulting creases have been needlessly hard to flatten out. Spent multiple days with heavy objects on top before it could be put under furniture.
