Having a machine-washable rug makes everything easier! Washing this rug is super easy and it air-dries super fast. It really is a timesaver! The stitches look super durable and I'm sure I'll use this rug for a loong long time. When it comes to its design, the pictures do not do justice to this beautiful product! It is much more beautiful in person. It actually has a more warm-undertone compared to the one I purchased along with this, but this rug can surely be used with all colors of furniture. Mustard, aqua blue, and light peach... What a beautiful color combination! It may sound odd, but believe me, they stay in great harmony together!
