The rug brought hygge to my living room.   I am delighted that this rug enabled me to tie the grey (sofa), sage green (walls and cellular blinds, and cream (chairs) in my living room into a bright, calming, restful retreat.   With the recommended pad, it is comfortable for walking and even lounging.    The rug arrived tightly wound around a strong tube, with extra padding around the ends.  It rolled out easily and only took about to settle flat on the floor.   Its medium pile is not super dense, but has a relaxing pattern of cream, sage green and shades of grey.  The creams keep it from being too dark and drab.
