I saw this rug and decided to wait (I had already purchased a few other things).  Later the price went up so when I saw another rug, I bought it.  This price went back down, and I bought it.  I should NEVER had purchased the other!  This is perfect for my room, matches my couch as if I had it made for it (or vice versa).  Excellent quality, looks better than the picture.  I couldn't be happier!
