The quality of this rug is very poor.  The edges are not bound.  They have a dark backing that shows around the edges of rug.  Since the design is light and bright, it is noticeable that these uneven dark edges are showing from the back of the rug.  I purchases two rugs for a long hallway and the colors are perfect.  I actually took a pair of scissors and snipped the backing off one side that was showing the most.  Pretty rug but poor quality.  You get what you pay for!
