Love this rug! Thick, soft and well made. I was worried about buying it sight unseen, but it is just beautiful in my dining room. Not sure I would call it Brown & Beige, it is more a subtle yellow with rust and tan tones, at least with my lighting. I have pale yellow walls and this is about 2 shades darker against them. I have dark maple hardwoods and wow, is it pretty sitting on that. I could not be happier, it's perfect. Others have talked about it shedding, but I have not seen any of it. Came very well packaged, but easy to open. I got the 8 X 10 and it rolled out flat immediately. I could not have made a better choice for my home.
