Nether. Both patterns are too busy and the second one is bland and extra ugly. The colors of the first one are okay.

I got this wool kilim rug from West Elm as a runner and I was very disappointed in the quality. http://www.westelm.com/products/tile-wool-kilim-aquamarine-t981/?pkey=cpattern-rugs-flooring&cm_src=pattern-rugs-flooring||NoFacet-_-NoFacet-_--_- It's thin and the edges curl up. I've had much better luck with Pottery Barn rugs.

I hate that first one.

Thanks! The first it is. And you are right. Not my style, though I'm sure they are nice.

The first with blue is wool. The second is jute and cotton. Little kids would be happier playing on a soft wool rug.

I don't think the second one would go at all. Cream and tan with pale gray and dark gray?

Have you looked at Bassett?

I'm having trouble finding such a thing I don't hate. Any suggestions?

Get a kilim rug with lots of reds to warm up the gray room.

Why not Overstock? We bought from them and were quite happy.

OP here, I like that one, too. I bought a rug from them and it was a completely different color than the description and photo indicated. And it was so cheaply made. AND it looked slightly worn. Mailing back a rug was a pain! I have bought things from there before that I was happy with. I think the difference was that this one didn't have any reviews, positive or negative, so I wasn't warned.

Dark gray sofa, very pale gray walls. Which rug do you like better? This is for a house with young kids, fwiw.

Thx.

PS: Don't buy a rug from Overstock. Ugh.
