This is the third time I've ordered this rug.  The first time I ordered a 5x8 and it was a little small for my outdoor living area so we moved it under our outdoor dining table.  That area is uncovered and the rug wore beautifully. The second rug I ordered was the perfect size and after having that a year, we replaced the rug under the dining table with that one, and ordered another one (the same size) for the living area.  I can't say enough about how nice they feel under your feet, how easy they are to clean, and how lovely they make our outdoor areas look.  Highly recommend!
