Have a buckwheat-color sectional coming and trying to find the right rug to tie it together with the brown wood tones of the coffee table (and matching media console), but worried the rug blends in too well. Is this okay or did I screw up?

I think it does blend too much honestly
Thank you all for the feedback. I’m currently looking at finding something a bit more crème/light brown to tie the colors together. Only challenge will be making sure it doesn’t look too similar to the couch.
I assume you haven’t opened the rug in case you decide to return it? (Of course, it would be easier to tell with the rug on the floor!) Just from what you’ve shown it, it looks WAY too similar for me. I’m not sure what buckwheat color IS (a taupe shade? light brown? do you have a swatch or a photo of the sectional?), but maybe a brown rug would tie the sectional and the flooring together?
IMHO the wood tone clashes horribly with the flooring, but that may be just me.
Looks too pale wrapped up. Maybe there is more to it if you unroll?
When I was looking to buy rugs online, I would buy the smallest rug as a “sample” if I like it, I would return the smallest rug and purchase the correct size
