The rug is beautiful and arrived fast but the odor was so bad. I live in NY it was hatlrd for me to leave it outside. But I had to as I was getting headache. I left it one week in the staircase of out building and had it two days on the fire escaper... It was still smelly after that for about a week. Now it's fine... But make sure you leave it hanging somewhere after opening package. It smells like dust, chemicals, mold... But look, price are great.
