I've never bought an indoor/outdoor rug before and I love this one. Its texture seems strong but it's not abrasive to the skin. The pattern is as lovely as it was on the website. The rug unrolled really well given how tightly it was wound for shipping. It's wrapped well in order to protect the rug when first slicing it open, which is nice. Wayfair, when you package these things, please consider making sure the interior edges are flat so that there are no stubborn edges that we have to flatten with heavy boxes for days and days. That's my only complaint.
