I like this rug (bought it to replace a wool blend rug that my dog had messed up). Pictures are accurate regarding color. I took one star off because of texture - rug has zero softness or padding, and is a bit rough to texture. However, it is durable which was a priority for me. My dog already caused a mess and it was pretty easy to clean it up, compared to the prior rug which would’ve been irreparably stained.
