Obsessed with these rugs!

I admit I'm a bit late to the party on these rugs since they have been circulating around the Instagram/Blog world for a while now, but I'm SO glad I finally found them! They are exactly the look I've been searching for literally for years. I love the look of vintage rugs but it's near impossible to find one with the right colors in the size you need that is affordable.Why these rugs work for me:- I'm a renter and don't want to invest a lot in authentic area rugs in the event I move and they don't work in my new space- I am using these rugs over carpet in some areas and actually need them to be thin to accommodate door swings- I am also using these in the kitchen and bathroom which are high traffic areas. I like that they are inexpensive and not preciousI'm repeating what a lot of other reviewers have said, but this is what you will want to know about these rugs:- They are photo of a vintage rug printed on a pad- They are meant to look aged and worn so they will have faded areas. I also noticed areas where the pattern looks distorted but again, I think this is an attempt to make the rug look vintage and worn- The rugs are thin so you'll probably want to use a rug pad if using on a hard surface- The material is very soft underfoot- I found the colors to be true to the online images although I will say, the dark areas read more 'eggplant' to me than 'charcoal' (I purchased the Layla in the Olive/Charcoal color). I do find though that charcoal is a tough color. It either tends to read green or purple/lavender- Additionally, one end of this rug is more green and the other is more golden. I think they are trying to give the effect of age and fading- These are new to me so I can't comment on the durability or cleanability yetIf this sounds like what you are looking for I think you'll be happy with these rugs. Also, the shipping was very quick! Overall I'm very happy with my purchase :)
