The rug was just as it appears in the photo.  It is rug is a great addition under a breezeway.  Excited, we powerwashed the area, let it dry and then laid out the carpet.  Instantly, it laid completely flat with no wrinkles.  Instantly, it poured rain and wind blew.  The wind blew the corners up and sopped up the carpet.  It's not the heaviest, but it's still a great bang for the buck.  It dried nicely too.  It looks great with our black patio furniture and warms up the spot.
