This rug arrived extremely quickly (one day earlier than expected) and looks great in our dining room. I'd say the accuracy of the online picture to the real life colors are about a 8 out of 10 - the blue and white elements had greater contrast than the online photo but overall the rug ended up working for our space. The size is ideal for a 6 or 8 person dining table and with a pad underneath, seems soft and comfortable. At a price lower than Home Goods plus free delivery, this one feels like a win.
