Really loving this rug! It turned out just as I was expecting from the photos which is a relief when ordering a rug online. Colours are vibrant in bright light and more muted in shadow. Has many different colours interweaved, dark and light, so doesn't confine you to a specific palette. I was worried about the whites of the rug looking too beige as our walls are a light grey and trim is all white, but there's enough light grey and beige in the rug that it doesn't look bad (see closeup image). The rug is super soft, feels great on the feet, so far no shedding, and seems to be made very well. We are using a .25" underlay and it's perfect for thickness, otherwise on its own the rug is thin. I ordered the 8'x10' and the actual measurement is 7'9" x 10'1".
