I was reluctant to order a rug online as I really wanted to see the color and quality of the rug. I decided to take a chance based on the positive reviews and I was so happy that I did. I absolutely love the rug! The neutral, off-white color is a perfect match for our grey sofa and white walls (Benjamin Moore Cloud White) and the quality is excellent. I love the design which reminds me of a cozy, cable knit sweater. I plan to order a rug pad to add a little extra cushioning. One very positive feature that I liked was the fact that the area rug did not give off a strong "chemical" odor that so many new synthetic carpets typically do.
