This rug is more beautiful in person than in pictures.  It replaces an incredibly expensive rug that got super dirty and stained after barely 1 12 years.  If you live on your rugs and have pets, it makes so much sense to purchase more affordable rugs from Wayfair.  Yes, it is lighter than the rug we had in weight, and I would suggest a rug pad under it, but it is cushy, soft to walk on and was delivered on THREE days!  It looks perfect in our living room.  The colors are dark and medium teal and white.  So happy with this purchase!  We will see how it wears over time.
