I recently bought several rugs for my main level.  I had one spot that I couldn't find the right size rug in stores so I took a chance and ordered this rug hoping it was the right color to match the others based on other reviews that said it was more taupe than true grey.  It is, infact, a taupe grey and I absolutely love it!  It is so plush and great quality.   I only wish I hadn't bought the other rugs because I would have ordered a few more of these in different sizes.  Great purchase!!!!!!
