Perfect for me as i have a busy household and the rug is beautiful glam and stylish yet  easy to care for it is a fairly light grey keeping my living room light and airy and the dense low pile is easy to keep clean and wipe over regularly and  especially if you have pets as an area rug it has bought my living room up to date brightened it up and made it much more welcoming i also love the pattern i am more than happy with it for style and practicality
