Oh man is this rug pretty. It’s BEAUTIFUL!!!

HOWEVER, I purchased the rug from this manufacturer - “Penrock Way Flatware” and I received a “Safavieh” rug. 

I NEVER would have bought a rug if I knew it came from “Safavieh” - every single rug I have bought from them comes with a very strong odor. This one is no exception. 

I love the look of this rug so much, I am hoping it will air out as it does seem natural and isn’t very thick.  
As I live in an apartment with no outdoor area, I have placed it in front of my fanair purifier on a drying rack. 

Meanwhile, Wayfair customer support was AMAZING. I explained my issues with this purchase and they really helped. 

I’m giving this rug a few days. I love it but it has to lose the mold smell.
