I really like my rug. It's huge! It had a slight gluey, factory smell initially, but it dissipated over time. One side didn't want to lay down, but I kept books on it and bent it backwards for a week. It looks great. I agree with the other reviewers, depending on the color of your furniture/room, the rug has more blue tones than gray. I'd describe it as a tan, grey, blueish gray color. Almost like a water color painting or those acrylic paint pours that are all over youtube right now.
