Hesitated to order a rug online not being able to see the quality and color ahead of time. I was concerned with the idea of fringe on the rug. All of those concerns were erased when the rug arrived and I unrolled it. The colors are perfect and allow me to incorporate many others colors in the room. A nice way to make the brick fireplace and the blue couch both come together. The colors also hide dog hair and other dirt wonderfully. The fringe has not been an issue, even while vacuuming. It is a very small fringe. Would definitely recommend this rug.
