I received this rug today and overall I am pleased. The light beige color in the pictures is more of a natural straw-like color in person, and the grey section isn't as dark. I took photos but Great Offer Stock doesn't let you upload pics to reviews I guess? Also, keep in mind this rug wasn't quite 5x8 but 5'1"x7'8". I feel it adds a homey feel and modern look to my dining room. I purchased this rug from another supplier (which I regret due to customer service and shipping issues), so order it from Overstock!
