Beautiful, comfortable, and unique. I have a very neutral color scheme in my house, and wanted one room that stood out a bit more. I've had this rug for about 6 months, and the color is still great. It is very comfortable to stand or sit on. I bought a rug pad, although I do not think one is needed for this rug. I use it in my daughter's play area, so we spend a lot of time on the floor. I was concerned it would look too fake or overly-bright, but I must say I am impressed with its quality and design. Very solid purchase.
