You can never be absolutely certain of what you will get when ordering online without seeing the item up close and personal. In this case my wife and I were extremely pleased with the item we received. Form, fit, and price were great! We have only used Wayfair twice now. In both instances we have had great results. I am sure we will make additional purchases from Wayfair. We expect to have the same experience in the future as we have had so far. The 8' x 10' rug is beautiful!
