I love everything about my new rug.  I am so happy with my purchase.  I love the color and design.  It's an indoor/outdoor rug.  I think it's perfect under my dining table.  It's tough, easy to clean and beautiful.  Now, I just need a new table.  Ha!  It does come in a box.  It took about a week to flatten out.  If you are looking for a soft rug, this is not for you.  But, it's perfect for what I was needing it for.  Couldnt be happier.
