Better than the photos!
Love, love, LOVE this rug. You never know when you buy something tactile on the internet, but this rug is thick, the colors are rich and deep, it lays nicely, and the design is true to photos. We paired it with the thicker rug mat, and that created a softer, more padded experience. Also, it was very easy to cut the rug mat with scissors to match the oval design-- we were worried about this, but it turned out to be no problem at all.
