The colors in this rug were a little brighter than they looked online, but still attractive. I like the colors and design of the rug. I have bought many area rugs in my life, and I must say that this rug is over priced considering its quality. The pile on this one was sparsely distributed and looked a little cheap. It was the quality of a $200 rug but I paid over $300. I'm keeping the rug because its under my dinette table and the colors match my decor so well.
