This rug is beautiful. It has a soft vintage look and even without a pad it is comfortable. It's hard to believe that it is an indoor/outdoor rug. It was definitely a good purchase. No problems vacuuming the rug or keeping it clean. I am extremely happy with  the look and feel of this rug and would definitely purchase it again. The price and quality is better than any I've seen. You won't regret purchasing this rug.
