This is such a beautiful rug! It is a crisp white and very plush under your feet. The only problem is that it discolors easily with use.  We do no wear shoes in our house and yet it discolors wherever trafficked as the black threads blend into the white. 
The first one we got had a terrible chemical smell no matter how much we aired it.  Even after over a month, the smell made us sick (my youngest would get physically sick and avoided the room at all costs).  Luckily, Wayfair heard our complaint and sent us a new one and sadly, we had to dispose of the 1st.
