The rug is a beauty in person. Colors are just on the right side of bold. I’m very pleased with how it looks in my space. The only (to me biggest) issue is that it’s a very fussy rug. Fussy meaning that you have to vacuum it almost daily as it develops little tufts of wool that will tumbleweed all over if you’re not paying attention. I literally use the extension on my vacuum cleaner that has a flocked lint roller type head every other day to clean this rug. We don’t wear shoes other than slippers in my home and have hardwood flooring. I must say that is a bit of a disappointment  I would give it 3.5 stars because of that.
