I chose this rug because it was a little different than most of the rugs I've seen. I liked the vibrant colors, but I didn't know one of them was a pinkish red. I thought it was red or reddish orange. I don't like fushia. That's the downside of buying without seeing things in person, and it isn't anyone's fault. Colors often look different than the photos. My husband did like the fushia though. The rug seems to be well-made and I think it's a great addition to the room.
