This rug is not even close to the color of the photo. I expected that it might be a bit darker, but it's a deep, dark gray, not the silver gray pictured. I've purchased rugs online before, and they've never been this far off. The quality of the rug itself is as expected for the price, and it did not have the strong smell that new rugs often have, which is nice. It doesn't work in our space being this dark, though, and return shipping is over fifteen dollars. I won't use Wayfair again.
