I love this rug. It’s exactly what I wanted. Giving four stars because when I unrolled this rug, it smelled so bad. It’s not a new upholstery smell, which is a smell I love, it’s a stale cigarette smoke smell, which is horrible. I sprayed it with half a bottle of extra strength Febreeze, and now it smells like an ashtray half full of Febreeze. My next step is to use the carpet shampooer on it, although I’m worried that getting it wet will make things worse. Would love to put it outside in the sun, but I live in the Seattle area, and we won’t be seeing any sun for a few more months. Also, doing this much work on a brand new item is really frustrating.
