I'm very pleased with this purchase. The colors are well represented in the photos and it is a short pile. We added a rug pad and it feels great under bare feet now, whereas previous to the pad, it was just ok.  The colors look great in the space and we'd been looking for a more subtle pattern than many other offerings for rug patterns--this one is beautiful.  We purchased the 9x12 size and enjoy how it pulls the room together.  We had a delivery issue due to the rug's arrival at the same time as Hurricane Harvey, but the folks at AllModern helped us out without missing a beat--much appreciated the good service.
