I received the rug and put it down immediately and I absolutely love it. The colors are not exactly as portrayed in the picture, but I knew that in advance after reading the reviews and seeing another purchasers picture. It is lovely and adds just the right color needed to complete my front room.  Its soft and comfortable to walk on. No piling problem as noted in other reviews, at least not yet. Waiting for my new couch and chair to complete the space. Stay tuned!
