Overall, this is a good rug. It did not take long to relax the folds from shipping. I was a little disappointed in the coloring, I was expecting it to have an overall light grey color. The grey is incorporated as little splotches (hard to explain), instead of being solid. From a distance, you can't really tell, so not a huge detractor. I figure the splotches might actually help to blend in any stains in the future. Since I was hoping for a light grey overall, and was expecting that from the description, I took one star away. Other than that, it is a good rug, and I am happy with the purchase.
