I bought this to use during the spring and summer months to lighten up my kitchen a bit.  I typically have such warm colors (oriental rug) that I use in the fall and winter months.  So I have not placed it in use yet. Everything looks good.  I did select this rug over another that looked identical because the listed weight was 35 pounds versus 10 pounds for the other rug.  When I picked it up, I knew right away that it couldn't weigh 35 pounds.  I opted for the heavier rug thinking it would be a bit more substantial.  Turns out the poundage is listed incorrectly.
