I know that this rug got so many great reviews. I even bought it because Studio McGee sells the exact same rug!! I wanted to love this rug soooo much. 
The rug in the pictures look so beautiful. First, the color is a lot  darker in person. Not as light and airy like the edited pictures. And most importantly the quality for the price. One customer compared it to a pricy rubber mat, and I agree with her. For almost $250, you will be buying a "rug" that looks and feels like a mat. Don't let the pictures fool you.
