I have this rug in my second bedroom/area and it lends a great casual and simple look to the room. I like that it's easy to wash/clean and provides a nice contrast to the dark stained wood floors I have. In any case, I recommend this rug if you're looking for something to style and soften a space (although I'm not sure I would keep it in a very high traffic area without being prepared to clean it as its color is light).
