I like the coloring of the rug just okay. It’s not as light as the picture, more of a dull coloring on the creamwhite area. It’s fine for now but what drives me nuts about this rug is that it will not lay flat! We’ve had it for a month and it still bunches up in areas even if no one has messed with it. I’ve even tried rug tape to keep it down and it doesn’t help much. I might try ironing it next. The other rugs ive gotten from here are great so this one just wasn’t as good sadly
