This rug is actually 22.5 inches across, so a bit shorter than what is on the product label.  The blue in this pattern is more of a teal color, with the olive green color and then the beige and the dark brown background.  I actually prefer that teal color better than the blue color pictured, but for some who are looking for that blue color in the photo, you might be disappointed.  I bought this runner because it says it can be washed, resist water and stains, and has a rubber backing, and I have other small rugs that have similar properties and they are on the thin side, but not at all as wafer thin as this rug is.  I was expecting this to be on the thin side, but this is even thinner than I expected it to be.  It's basically like placing a towel on the floor thin.  Overall, not bad for the price though.  Hopefully I can find something with similar properties that is not as wafer thin as this rug.
