CB2 seems to have a knack for finding items that are stylish, affordable and fairly durable. This rug fits nicely into that niche as a great choice for brightening up a room without taking out a second mortgage for a 'designer' rug.
The screen colors I see are accurate but somewhat darker than perceived under bright lighting. The colors (gold and red orange) pop quite a bit and are pleasing tones. I like the gold so much I bought two accent chairs to match.
As to wear, I agree that it is better placed under a cocktail table or in a low traffic area; it can scuff up tuffs without too much trouble. And cat owners beware: they're going to like the weave to try out their claw and stretch move.
All in all, another pleasing selection from CB2. After looking at many so-called designer high end rugs high in price and low in tasteful patterning, I think this rug is a very good value for the money.
