After I unwrapped my rug and spread it out on my patio, I was immediately impressed with the obvious quality and beautiful colors that made this rug stand out. When I looked closer I could see that there is thoughtful detail put into each pattern on the rug. The flowers on the rug are woven higher than the rug, and seem to pop out as an extension of the pattern. I have received many compliments on the beauty of my new rug. I use the lowest setting on my cordless vacuum to clean it and remove outdoor debris.
