I haven't got this put down yet, but I purchased it to replace an off white shag rug in my living room.  I bought it because of the colors and design. I'm sure it's going to blend well with my decor.  Also because of the easier care of this rug.  It should be a lot easier kept clean, especially with four legged kids.  Plus it must have been time for the other rug to be replaced. My youngest decided this, as he was de-stringing the shag  rug.
