I gave this little mat a four star rating because it is my little fur buddies favorite "rug" to sit on while waiting to be fed. (Those heavy duty mats you put at your entry way that are super absorbent, are actually her all time favorites) Anyway, it looks exactly like the photo, it is really soft and is small enough to fit in any room of your choice. Nice design. It did take months to receive it though. I honestly was surprised when it showed up. So long I'd forgotten about it -Brought it downstairs to my neighbor and she is this yours? Ha ha - Looked it up and they through my foggy brain, remembered I had ordered it months and months ago for the bathroom. I now keep it in the kitchen in a small area that really needed yet another rug. ( I rent and the linoleum is so ugly I can't stand looking at it. It is also freezing! Rugs were my way of covering the hideous flooring. All different sizes and styles. Very eclectic and also bought many of them from Amazon. Would not buy from this particular third party vendor again due to the insanely long wait. The dog would be sad to hear this. Such is life. She has a coat that is not only Superior in style to my own but warmer as well so she really shouldn't complain.^-^ Happy shopping.
