I have always loved this rug and finally pulled the trigger.  I really needed some color in our living room and this was it.  Funky with an edge of old fashion.  Our sofa is a linen color and like a previous buyer said, this rug just pulled everything together.  I feel like I can go any direction with additional color in the room.  I've had other hooked rugs and this one seems to feel more plush???  The colors are truly wonderful.  I knew that I need to go wool in lieu of cotton just for durability.  In the past I order another rug from another retailer and it came just bagged in a heavy poly wrap.  It had been dragged during shipping and was opened, soiled and fraying at one end by the time it made it to me.  Wayfair's rug came boxed and bagged in a poly wrap so it made it no problem.  Very happy with my first purchase from Wayfair.com.
