This rug is fabulous! Orange color in rug matches my pumpkin color kitchen walls. The multi-color is enough to add some splash! The 5 x 7  fits perfectly under my 48" round kitchen table. With chairs at each corner, there is room to back up and not end up on the bare floor. Enough rug to keep the echo out of my large dining area. I may add color to my living room and get another one to set in front of my large brown sofa. Not a cheap feel to the rug. Threads are thick enough, so you don't see the underside when you spread the matting with your finger. Soft feel. I was prepared to buy the extra suggested padding, but it doesn't need it. Creases at inner side of roll came out fine after setting books on the end for a couple of days. You won't be sorry with this purchase!
