NOT AN OUTDOOR RUG!!!    It will NOT dry!  
It should NOT be advertised as an Outdoor Area Rug!  When I first laid the rug on my deck, it was terrific! Beautiful! I purchased the insurance because I loved it that much! 
 However, it is not meant to be used outside; at least not exposed to the elements.  The deck gets a lot of sun, but takes 3 days to dry. I am worried what it will do to the wood under it. I have tried picking up the rug and put things under it to make it dry faster, but it is unrealistic! It is very large.  I don't have a covered porch, but that would be the only place to use this as an outdoor rug!  Unfortunately, I am not going to be able to use this rug.  I have no clue if or how I would be able to return it.
