LOVE THIS RUG! The colors are gorgeous. I love the mandala like center, the dark greens, blues, and teal, with hints of hot pink and orange, with cream pairing.. I did think it would have more emerald or alpine green (darker) instead it was dark navy blue background. Still, I love it. I get compliments on it all the time.  Cleans easy with spot cleaning. I have a 6 year old. We take our shoes off in the home, but occasionally have had food or drinks spilled. I cleaned them immediately and they were gone. (Soap, water, vinergar) Happy with our rug! And even though the pile is short, we lay on the floor often. Couldnt remember if it was supposed to have the distressed look or not, as there are these stripes that go all the way through the center that are not symmetrical.  Didnt remember it described that way. Included a pictures of that.
