I absolutely love this rug! I originally bought this for my hallway, which needed a runner a little wider than the typical ones. After it arrived, however, we tried it out in the kitchen and loved it there too. So I ordered another one to go in the hall. The colors are nice and rich-- the red is more of a barn red than a cherry red. Undertones of brown, gold and blue. It is nice and thick for a runner. The tassels on the end are cropped a bit shorter than I would prefer; they kind of remind me of a crew-cut. But overall it doesn't really affect the quality or look in a room. Definitely recommend!

I like the interesting red used in this carpet, more of a brick red than the usual more cherry or fire reds used in Oriental style carpets. Nice carpet, I enjoy walking on it with bare feet.
