Shipping was a little slow, but boy is this rug nice! the pattern isn't as defined as on the website because the shag is so long it's kind of harder to make out, but boy is this a soft nice rug to walk on and the 6x9 size is perfect for my living room! i like that it kind of has a subtle blend of tan with the grey in it. didn't notice an overwhelming chemical smell either like some people have noted..
