Bored? Help me find a rug.

We redid our living room and need a new rug for the front entryway. The colors are basically those that are in the pic below--mostly reds and browns/tans. I'm thinking of getting this rug (it's at JCP), but it has only one review--a negative one that says that it kind of looks cheap in person. Boo.
But I don't want anything super modern (this design is as modern as I'd want), but also nothing super traditional. It needs to be about 3' x 5' --ish. I probably wouldn't want to spend more than $150, $200 tops. I'm not having a lot of luck so far..
So...help! TIA!

Re: Bored? Help me find a rug.
Here's the new furniture we got for the room... It has a matching chair in a tan/straw color. Our pillows are different than shown, but similar colors.
Here's a close color match for the chair
So this one is out since it is quite pricey! I love it anyway so I am going to post it
I am still looking!

Ooh.. I love that! But DH would never go for that floral (or the price. hehe)
We're actually getting our rug from Walmart. They're not super high quality, but the price is good and it will be fine for our less than fabulous home.
I saw some I really liked at Lowe's too.
I love these at Target, but if florals are a no-go for your DH, then they won't work. Also, I'd definitely rec Target. We bought a rug from there when DH bought his first house (before we were even engaged!) and it has lasted great - even through J. They're prices are great

Here's another non-floral option that would introduce a third "pop" color for you. (I know this is not the right size, but usually in the stores you can find a variety of sizes).

These are at World Market, and I think they are all $150 or less. Some are Indoor/Outdoor, but that's not a bad thing IMO!
Thanks y'all--those are some great recs!
I checked Kohls, Walmart, Target and Lowes. Lowes had one I'm interested in, and Kohls had a couple, but not the right size.
I do like that floral BTP posted.. Who knows, maybe I could talk DH into it. hehe.
I'll check out World Market too--I love that store!

DH and I looked all over for a rug for LO's room and finally found one at the Capel Rug Outlet on Hwy 70/Glenwood Ave in Raleigh. I had a hard time comparing colors and textures online although I am usually an avid online shopper, but for this I needed to see the real thing. Capel has a lot of expensive rugs, but also some that are really affordable. They even let me take 2 home to compare in the room and bring back the one that didn't work.
