So this rug did what we needed- it blends the various wood colors we are trying to make work, and keeps the table the focal point while bringing warmth and softness to a room with a lot of hard surfaces). The edges were pretty even all the way around (especially for a jute rug), and the rug measured exactly 12 feet long as stated. I will say though, it came in a plastic bag and was DEFINITELY wet and had the off-gassing odor, which the paper insert said was normal and went away in a few days. The rug dried up within 24 hours (it was not “dripping wet” so to speak, but there were certainly condensation drips inside the bag which was gross and concerned me initially).
