Bought the 9x12 for my bedroom. The rug looks fantastic.   As others have mentioned, the grey has a silver sheen to it, especially if the short tufts are flattened.  The grey seems lighter or darker depending on the viewing angle relative to the light.  This is a great medium weight rug.  The rug was a little smaller than the listed dimensions.  It was 4 inches short of nine feet and two inches short of 12 feet.  If the dimensions are critical to you, you could have a problem.  Also, plan to trim your rug pad as it's probably going to be a few inches too long in each direction.  Being off by a few inches wasn't a problem for me.

Pros: Beautiful rug!
Cons: Slightly smaller than specifications
