Love Love our new rug!  We were a little concerned with the rug not laying flat and curling like past rugs, but it's heavy enough to stay put and not curl.  We did purchase a rug pag to help with keeping it in place as well.  It's soft under foot and the color is true to the picture posted but I would say it's a little on the greyer side of taupe.  You can't beat the price either!
