I purchased this for my home office meditation space. I normally wouldn't feel comfortable with a white rug, even though I love how they look. But since this is my "room of one's own" it's a low traffic area where my step-dog and the man have to obey a specific set of rules or they're not allowed! The pattern is sewn with a dark grey so the contrast with the off-white is not alarming. It's soft underfoot without being difficult to maintain (so far) and thick enough that you can lie on it comfortably for quite a while. . P.S. The pouf is from World Market and matches perfectly!

First, this is a really beautiful rug and I really do like it. Great price, too. Feels plush and rich under foot, looks both modern and traditional, and complements any color scheme. And, I love the braided tassels! I'm glad I bought it. The reasons for only 4 stars are as follows: . 1. Not quite as big as stated. Only 8' - 10" wide. not 9' - 2". . 2. The pattern shown online is not quite as shown (no "crosses") and is not scaled to every size offered. I don't know which size the picture is showing, but I'm guessing it's maybe the 5' x 7' size. I got the 9 x 12 and the pattern is much more repetitive. Not sure how you can know what you'll get.

I will say I was very disappointed at the least upon receiving this item. I ordered the round 6 foot size and was confused when the print was vastly different than what was pictured. The design looks like it was blown up and in person you can’t really make out the chevron diamonds. My round rug ended up displaying one enlarged chevron diamond vs the 4 or so on this larger rectangular version. Disappointed but would have cost me more money to ship it back which really just didn’t sit well w me. Ended up keeping but would not purchase another from this seller

WOW

I was scared to order a rug sight unseen (and unfelt). I've been looking all over for a shag-ish soft rug, Moroccan style, that was not too shaggy so that it was still easy to vacuum in either white/off white or light grey. The best deal I had found in stores was at Home Depot for a 5x7 rug - It was very soft and cost about $250 plus a delivery fee. . . . . I loved this instantly online and couldn't believe the price. Based on the reviews I went for it. I was impressed that the rug was at my apt in just 3 days. I LOVE IT! It is soft and shag-like but not so thick and shaggy that it would be hard to vacuum. It's also not super thick which I like, the price is more than $100 less than Home Depot was charging for a bigger rug. . . . . I wouldn't describe it as oatmeal, I'd say it's white but not a super bright white. It looks amazing in my NYC apt which has both off-white and bright white furniture as well as a black coffee table. The pattern is beautiful. My only nitpicks are I wish it had been 2 inches wider, though that's minor, and the tassels on the edges are not perfectly even, but I simply cut the fringe with scissors to get them all the same length. You may need to smooth the fringe with your hands to get them to look more polished. . . . . One thing about a white or off white rug - they tend to get dingy looking but this was so cheap, I wouldn't feel weird going at it with mild dish soap or a Magic Eraser. And if it gets ruined it's not like you're out $400 or more bucks. Just get a new one. Highly recommend!!!
