I received this rug a few days ago. I wasn't quite sure at first but I do like it.  The color is a little less bright than the picture shows.  It is a true navy.  It has more of a shag feel than a cut pile.  However,  it does look and feel very nice.  I expected the rug to shed a lot but it has not at all.  Overall, it seems like a good quality rug for the price and I could recommend it.
