This rug has a nice rustic appearance.  Looks good in my spare bedroom.  The rug I received is much lighter than the one pictured on the website which worked out okay for me.  The negatives: furniture does not easily slide on the rug (have to lift the furniture to move/not good for my back and age); the rug is not perfectly squared off at corners (if that matters to you).  I have not decided whether I will be keeping this rug or returning it.  FYI: The rug is shipped folded in half and then rolled up. The fold did come out after a week of laying on the floor.
