For what I spent on this area rug and runner, I am elated. The rugs were delivered quickly despite the holiday timing. When they arrived, I admit I didn't expect them to be very nice. I spent very little on these rugs. I shopped around for awhile and had actually found something I liked in my price range at a large box store nearby. Then I saw these rugs online for half of what I was going to spend. The colors are just as pictured. They are way thicker than I was expecting also. Because of the pattern, our little dog hair problem isn't so obvious either. As I said to my husband as I finished unrolling them and setting them in place. "They class up the joint." And they do. Beautiful rugs, great price.
