Colors true to online photos, tight weave but still soft to walk on! I wasn't expecting an indoor/outdoor rug to be this soft, but am I glad it is, as I'm using it in the living room. Cleans easily (I have one dog and one cat that never stop shedding), easy pass with the Roomba has kept it out-of-the-package nice since it arrived. The lightest color is really an off-white (not a bleach-white) so I don't worry about keeping that area perfect.
