The colors of this rug are perfect and match the description and picture! The rug DOES shed - A LOT - as also explained by other reviewers.... We've vacuumed the rug about 4 times now and for the most part, the shedding has ceased - unless you're sitting on rug (which, when you have two small children is often) - in which case I usually have small hairs on my pants. It definitely wouldn't stop my from purchasing this again though - it has made a wonderful addition to our newly painted living room.

Price, color, durability 
Just the shedding which I'm hoping eventually stops!
