I purchased this rug for my vacation home.  I wanted a stylish rug that also functions well with the never ending tracks of wet / sandy feet of my children and weekend guests.  If there is a little spot, a wipe with a paper towel cleans it right up.  However, the ivory in this rug is more tan than white, and the blue is not a dark navy.  Okay for me, but not a navy/white rug if that is what you want.  For me, a perfect rug and great price.
