Lovely rug on the whole. Is a bit darker than it appears online. One of two stray threads on arrival too and, not sure if it was due to condensation because it was cold? But the rug was actually a little damp when we received it. Deceptively small too, we ordered the 120x170 rug and when we measured it fit perfectly, but when we got it we realised that it'd be better if it spread over the gap rather than just sat inside it, our fault, but the price does leap considerably between sizes, still I'd advise save up and get a larger size. 
On the whole though, as a cheap oriental/traditional style rug it serves real well, not slippy at all either.
