I was so worried about getting this run because I wasn’t sure if the colors were going to be correct. However, it is the perfect addition to our living room and matches exactly. The blue is more of a denim dark blue. And go throughout. The Browns are a bit more muted than what they appeared in the picture but that is fine with me. The teals are perfect. I think that the colors looked more saturated in the website picture, but this is an exceptional rug. I sat on it straight out of the bag in black pants, and though there was a little bit of fiber shed on my pants, it was next to nothing. I have yet to vacuum it and have noticed little shedding. I did not even put a mat underneath it. It is a nice thickness.
