The rug is VERY comfortable. It is so rare to find a single rug that runs this long to cover the whole floor in front of a couple sink. I browsed through many listings of bathroom rugs and found nothing that beats this. It is thick, long, wide, soft, non slippery (even though there's no non-skid), I haven't washed it yet so can't tell what the after-math would be but I am just going to use gentle-cycle when I do so should be alright. For the size I got, it costs me $100+ but I think it's worth it. It really dresses up the bathroom and super, super comfortable. It has even become a new favorite rolling spot for my dog . :D
