We installed tile-like-wood in our living room after ripping out the old icky carpet. This provides a nice echoing sound effect in the with the 18 ft ceilings. Our old 5X7 rug just looked too small so I upgraded to the (almost) 7 X 10 size on this rug and I paid less for a larger rug than I did for the smaller rug I bought from a local dept store 3 years ago! I believe the colors will fit perfect with my décor as I am still waiting for the shipment to arrive. Tracking order says it's almost here. I'm super excited!
