I got this rug for my home office so I didn’t want to spend a lot since I’m just going to be rolling my office chair all over it. I chose this rug and, well, you get what you pay for - it’s not bad but it’s not gonna like blow your mind or anything. The pile is all one height so there’s no texture really, which works well under an office chair but also looks a little cheap. The only thing I really don’t like about it is that I don’t think it can really be called “taupe” at all. Its beige and the zebra strips are shades of grey with very blue undertones. It would work better in a room with cooler colors.
