I loved the rug for about a week until I needed to spot clean it. It seems there is something they put on the gray parts of the rug that completely come off if u even so much as get it wet with water and you are left with a brown discoloration that was once a pretty silverish taupe gray. As other reviewers said it's more of a warm grey taupe color with a hint of silver and off white. The different textures are great and it looked more expensive than the cost; however, having a light colored rug that you cannot spot clean is not very practical. Very disappointing because otherwise I absolutely loved the rug, but it seems to be ruined now. So if you purchase whatever you do don't get it wet or feed it after midnight lol!
