I purchased this rug to replace a similar rug purchased 15 years ago for my entry way.  My previous rug had fringe which I never cared for and over the years had turned quite dingy.  This one is slightly smaller - 3x5, which I am very happy with.  No fringe, yeah!  Pile is very nice.  My other rug was more blue dominent which I liked, this one has more red in it, but not a surprise from the picture.  The blue is not a dark navy, it's more a medium navy.  I am very happy with my purchase.
