I use this for a bit of luxury in the bedroom, and it is glorious to step on first thing in the morning. It is a little slippery on account of the longer pile, but not so much that I worry about falling. Somehow I had expected something more faux-fur-like, and this is not; it is "silky" like the name suggests, so if you're just shopping based on pictures, be aware the fabric here is different. For the price, I definitely recommend it.
