The area rug arrived quickly and in good shape.  We unrolled it and left it in the garage to 'air out' and have a chance to flatten out.  Once in place we were a little surprised at how light it was, especially in the middle part.  It also is a little more grey than it looked on the website.  We are still getting use to it.  The size was perfect for our living room and matches well with floor and stone, but leaves a little to be desired with our furniture colors.
