Bought the taupe rug, it's exactly as picture.  I was looking for a muted, indistinct pattern that would add color to the space without interfering with my ability to add other colors and patterns to the room.  This fits the bill.  It is quite a light-colored rug so if you have pets with muddy paws this wouldn't be for you.  On the floor it appears lighter than the submitted photo which suits my purpose.  The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of 5 is that is too light a weight for edges to stay down without a little carpet tape to secure them.
