I love this rug and it took me a long time to find one with these undertones. There is no yellow to this rug - true sand and non-yellow ivory colours. None at all. When we first unrolled we didn't like it, but we turned it the other way and the light hit it perfectly. The creases take months to totally disappear. My dog has accidents on this rug all the time and they come out no problem with a green machine. Very easy to clean and even the light colour hides dirt and stains. My only wish is that it came in a 8 x 11/12. highly recommend.
