The colors are exactly as shown in another's review and I felt they were true to what was listed online so I was satisfied with that. The rug itself is thinner than what I expected but I wasn't looking for something plushy so I didn't think that was a big deal at all. If that is what you are looking for, I suggest you get a different rug or at least get a rug pad. When I received the rug, the one side of it was actually folded back by about 1" and superglued to the back of the rug which was EXTREMELY difficult to pry back off and left a huge line of superglue down the back of the rug which then rubbed on my real hardwood floors. This was obviously an issue so I called Wayfair and they sent out a rug pad at no charge. Awesome customer service! I would recommend this rug to others besides that one small mishap I had.
