I'd been looking for a rug for awhile. I wanted a worn out look. I found a bunch of distressed rugs with an oriental design but that wasn't the look I was going for (rustic farmhouse type of style) and I also have one in another room and wanted something different. I like the design a lot. Colors are nice. I wouldn't say it's super nice quality but not super cheap either. My other rug is way softer but that was $799 vs this being $500 (can't remember exact amount I paid.) Came in a couple of days.
