I really like the rug, it’s nice it’s comfy, but it looks a bit like an old sweater. I had read this before ordering and I ordered anyways, and I’m keeping it, but because the braiding is not perfect throughout it has more of a rustic feel than a modern vibe. Either way, I have paired it with navy velvet reading chairs which are very modern and it looks great. Just a thought! Also very hard to clean and sheds onto socks.
