The rug is fairly similar in color to the photo shown, except for there are more brown tones.  It's more plush than I expected.  It's very comfy to walk on.  I did put an anti slip pad underneath it.  This is the second time that I've purchased rugs from Wayfair.  This manufacturer did a great job packing it.  It was rolled and double bagged(the other manufacturer folded it, which caused major creases that took days to flatten out).   My only complaint was that the distributor sent the wrong size.  It was resolved quickly by Wayfair's customer service at no expense to me.
