I wish I would have returned this within the allowed time.  This rug has an odor of being musty and sour.  It was wrapped in plastic , but there wasn't any absorbent packs in it.  I have aired this rug out, in sunlight and fresh air, for several days, and I've done this 3 times.   I also put 3 charcoal aire cleaner bags inside the rug, to try to eliminate the order, but that didn't help at all.   I'm very disappointed, it cannot be used in the house, it just stinks!  I would NOT recommend it at all.  I'm stuck with the loss.
