I bought two of these rugs in 5x7 for the family room and for under the breakfast table since the rooms are open to each other. The colors are true to the photograph and couldnt look nicer with my wall color. The rugs are not too thick that you would trip on them, and I like that. They had a smell for 2 days and were fine after that. I dont like a distressed look, and this rug does not look distressed at all. Happy about that.
