I love the rug, it's design, color (which was accurate according to the photo) and texture. I am using it in our entryway. My only issue is that the rug has been rolled up for so long, it is hard to get the edges to lie flat...makes me wonder if rolling it the opposite way before sending would be a good solution. I realize there are problems with that too as the upside will be exposed. Also, this rug, if set on a smooth surface (like my tile), definitely needs a rubber mat of some sort under it. As my rug in the entryway gets dirty here and there, I bought this rug, so I can scrub it in the summertime and rinse off with a hose and dry in the sun. We'll see how that works because the one I bought is long! Oh...and I love the width (the width of our front door) and it was not easy to find this width in runner form.
