I like this rug, in person it’s predominantly beige light brown and light blue, muted neutral colours. It laid flat over a day or so and only had a bit of that ‘new’ smell, nothing overpowering. I got the 6x6 square for my condo den and it fit perfectly under my desk (also from wayfair). My chair wheels over it easily, it’s not too thick. I’m happy with the purchase, good value for the price.
