The reason for the 5-star review is that it was one of the few runners of this length (14 feet long) and I needed that for my hall. It's got a nubby, high-quality, handmade-looking texture, which I like. It does seem to have some slightly greenish undertones, at least with the lighting and yellow walls of my hall. This is not exactly what I expected or wanted to go with the yellow walls, but I am ok with it.
