While this rug is more of a runner than I thought, and it is rather narrow, as others have commented, it is very soft dusty blue and feels great on my feet. I placed it in front of long, double-vanity and cabinets. I even ordered another one just like it to fully extend the area there. Too bad it isn't offered in wider shapes, since I could really use a 5'x8' and a smaller one in the master bath!
