As others have reported, the colors are good. The rug is nice and thin(our doors are low to the ground) and for those with little children who like to run(us) it will definitely need additional padding and/or rug pad. 

I bought two of the 2.5' x 9' and one has flattened quite well, while the other one must have been at the bottom of a shipping container as it has stubborn soft creases that haven't flattened out yet (had rug in high traffic area for two weeks) and the corners do curl up - which will be a tripping hazard(thus the four stars).
