If anything the whites on this are more vibrant in person than can be captured in this picture. Very nice feel to the tuft, very brightly whites -- blacks have some white fibers in them. Pros: Very comfortable, matches picture accurately, goes well in rooms where there are blacks, whites or greys Cons: Black stripes aren't solid black, they have some white in them

Awesome rug. I love it and it matches perfectly with my furniture. It shipped fast and looks exactly like the photos. Only negative is that it is having a hard time flattening out after being rolled up for shipping, but that's expected.
