This is exactly the colors I wanted, Light Grey and biege Accents. I didnt necessarily what the bright white backgground but it worked out. It has a strong sheen accent but I've gotten use to that tone. They washed well in delicate cycle. The backing is not grippy but I havents had issues slipping. My bath tile is honed finish.  Rug isn't very absorbent however I just throw a towell tub rug over it sometimes.
