oh my gosh! I absolutely love this rug. we put it on our deck as our deck gets very hot, too hot to stand on, and this rug makes it feel like we have a lovely extension to our living space. The dogs love it and it couldn't be more beautiful. Bought two and put them on the deck. Bought a third one just recently because we have a patio downstairs but I may put it in my room (love it that much!). It rained for a few days and I was amazed at how quickly it dried out. Really is a fabulous buy. Highly recommend it.Love the vintage faded feel to it.
