The rug came promptly and all in tack. It took some time to get it to lay flat since it comes in a large roll. This only took a day or two with heavy weights on the corners. That being said, the blue color pictured is true and it looks fantastic in the space. Mine is in my dining room under my table since outdoor rugs are easier to clean and more durable. I would recommend this rug to anyone who is looking for a rug to use in a similar situation.
