I looooove this rug!!! It goes so well with my colors in a subtle manner.
It has gray,cream,teal,black and gold! 
I feel it is comfie w/o a pad. Always do your measurements  so that the rug fits the space appropriately. 
Not a loud rug but it does make a statement. 
And the price is the best I have ever seen and I didnt have to run around the county looking for it!
Now to chase the cat off of it as he rolls around on it....sheesh!
