Swift delivery - and the rug is true to colors. Pinks feel bright at first, but then seem to fade into the background after a few days. It works well with my gray wall color - gives some pop of color while still feeling traditional. I went with a heavier rug pad from another company under my runner, because the rug is on the thin side. (Nothing wrong with that -- just prefer a little more sound deafening when my 60 lb dogs are chasing through the house.) I love the value, the delivery was very easy, and the quality is great.
