Love this rug! I purchased it to use on my front porch to cover my outdated ugly tiles and I could not be happier! It shipped quickly, was well packaged and arrived in perfect condition. Time will tell how it holds out. It I am happy with the look and the price was right! I ordered the 6ft square. I would not call it brown but more of a taupe, with some black woven in and beigetan print. Neutral to go with most decors and gorgeous oriental print gives it a nice touch of class and elegance. I highly recommend it!
