nuLOOM Bess Persian Vintage Machine Washable Area Rug, 8' x 10', Ivory

I bought this design as a runner for my entry way in FL home. I have pets and we get some weather so I needed something soft yet durable. So far it is working perfectly as expected...I did purchase a rug pad for underneath as it is on a tile floor and there is no trouble opening the door - plenty of clearance. There is more of a blue tone going on in some of the gray than I expected but it still works perfectly in the space and I may end up liking it more with this added perception of color as I finish decorating the space. The blue is not so bright or deep as to warrant knocking off any stars and I probably should have read all the descriptions and reviews a bit more closely. All in all a great purchase and I expect it to hold up well based on the use it has received thus far. The few messes my dog has brought in on it have cleaned right up with no problems or staining.
