This rug is absolutely beautiful! The colors are bright and vibrant. However it would not flattened out. I have tried everything from steaming out the folds to ironing , you name it I have done it nothing seems to work. I have been doing this for the last month. The more I walk on it   the more it folds. This is a tripping hazard. I was not worth the purchase, I think it may be too late to return it. I tried to make it work.
