Love this rug! It was a bit lighter than expected, almost completely ivory with a few touches of tan but it works perfectly in our living room! Upon arrival, it was pretty lumpy and bumpy having been folded up for shipping  but after a week, it’s perfectly smooth without having to steam or vacuum! It’s perfectly soft, while still being thin and very low pile, will probably purchase a rug pad for it, but for now it’s more than fine without one.
