What Do You Think Of This Rug - Honest Opinions Please

I'm looking for an area rug for my living room. I want a formal look, but I'm not a fan (no offense to anyone) of persian rugs. So I've found this:

http://www.domestications.com/ProductS.asp?deptid=16000&sid=45D3A2804CE7617F&subdeptid=16100&product=J10433x&Nao=30&R=10433A%5FRD%5F8RD%5F44&dept_id=16100

I'm looking at the red one. My living room has hardwood floors and an olive green, microfiber wrap around couch. The walls are off-white and there will be a muted yellow accent wall eventually.

TIA!

I like the red color, but not the large white roses in the center - if it was a diff shape and not as large, I'd like it more.

It's hard to tell without seeing the room it would be in....it's a busy looking rug so if the room is busy it might be a bit much

I think that its a little too loud for my taste. I would try to find something a little more subtle. Have you tried Ballards?

It's a nice color (the red) but the white blooms make it too busy for my taste.

I like red but don't like the big flowers on it. Not my style!

Re: What Do You Think Of This Rug - Honest Opinions Please

I dont know if I like the red and olive green together to be totally honest ( I know you were only asking about the rug) I have the same color couches and yellowish beige walls and too much red would strike me as christmasy. If anything Id go with the yellow rug and do some red accents. Or a rug with the primary colors being the olive/yellow and a hint of red.

It's a little too bold for my liking.

While it's not necessarily my taste, I think it will look fine with what you've described.

Re: What Do You Think Of This Rug - Honest Opinions Please

i just dont like it.
not sure why- i just dont care for it

(i do, however, like the moroccan rug on their website- to me these rugs look rich and add depth to the room)

decent as a small throw rug in the kitchen but IMO, not for appropriate for a LR. definitely check out rugsusa. they have a huge selection and GREAT prices.
