First, this rug is about an inch THICK and soft. I find it doesn't need a mat (though I bought one). I wanted exactly a rug like this and bought what I thought was the closest fit. So I was very pleasantly surprised. It is perfect for high traffic areas like my little kitchen. I wanted softness, easy to haul & hose outside, and something to filter litter box strays and other small dirt. Once a week, I vacuum it, then roll it and vacuum the floor beneath. It is working GREAT, FEELS great on my bare feet, and LOOKS so much cleaner and nicer than the linoleum beneath it. So, maybe I got lucky, but the quality is very good and I just bought another one for a small sun room. I'm happy! :)

I have hard wood floors and some of the reviews have said that the rug sheds a little bit. I have had the rug for about a month and I haven't had any shedding or fraying. Love this rug. Wish they had it this rug in a bigger size because I would be buying another one then.

This rug looks great. It is a little more knobbly than I expected and more so than another jute rug I have but the chunky texture looks and feels great. I've had to pull a couple of loops back through the other side but so far it's holding up well.

For some reason this rug got sent to my son in California. I did click the button that said ship it to the payee or what ever it says. The thing that impressed me was, the courteous, expedient way the Overstock representative handled the mistake. No excuses, no whineing, no broken promises. Just, "yes mam we will get your rug to you asap". and they did! Nice rug, lots of character with the bumpy weave.

I bought 3 of these rugs and they are quite nice. The only negative is the rug is very thick. It can't lay in front of a door if the door needs to be opened and closed. The rugs rolled out well, had really no smell and layed flat almost immediately. I did tape the edges of the rugs down for the first few days because I was afraid of tripping on them since they are so thick. It's been a week and I still have to be aware of stepping on the rugs because they are so thick. Nice rugs but I would have liked them much thinner!

This rug is the worst. First of all it smelled horrible, like vomit, until I saturated it with Febreze. It is hard and uncomfortable, even awkward to walk on, bunches up under table legs, really looks bad. For $$$ I got what I paid for, nothing. I may buy another but I need some help picking out something that is decent. Tom

I got this rug very quickly in the mail. It has a very nice color. Unfortunately, that is the only good thing I can say about this rug. After less than a week, the edges started to unravel. Also, the worst part is that this rug leaves a very heavy dust/dirt residue underneath of it due to the natural fibers. It has made a mess of my wooden floors. Don't waste your money!

I am a little disappointed with the quality of the rug. It does not look exactly like the one in the picture.
