The color, size and design is exactly what I was looking for. The rug is a bit thin but that's ok, because I didn't want anything too expensive and it is in a rarely used guest room. It took 3-4 days for the corners to stay down and for the odors to gas off, but now it smells ok. The one thing that bothers me about this rug is that there is a nap to it and if you rub the rug against the nap, it makes it look dirty/like there are spots on it anywhere the fibers go against the nap. I would have also preferred it if the pattern ran the width of the rug, rather than the length, but I knew the pattern direction when I bought it, so I can't really complain about that. It's just something to keep in mind as you think about how you plan to position the rug in the room.
