This is a beautiful rug. I was impressed with the great feel underfoot - this rug is so soft and smooth! Its primary hue is definitely a "tan" or "beige." Even though I was hoping for a bit more grey tone, the color is quite lovely and seems like it would compliment many color schemes. The one thing that bothered me was that, when rubbed in the opposite direction by something like a foot walking across, the textured material resulted in the appearance of spots. I don't know if this would become less prominent with vacuuming/more wear, or if it's something I'd get used to. Unfortunately, I have to return this because it wasn't quite the right size for the space. Disappointed as it's a really nice rug and I got it at a great price. If you're thinking about this one, I say go for it!

Pros: very soft, neutral color palette 
Cons: couldn't find the right size for my needs
