I bought this rug a week ago.  I absolutely love it!  The colors are so vibrant and the material on the patterns are soft on your feet.    I have the rug located in our courtyard which is in full sun and the other half is completely shaded.  It rained three days ago and has been sunny the last two days, the rug went from completely soaked but now is completely dried (very pleased; since I was concerned about mildew or moss growing...)
