Better Descriptors Needed

I chose this rug based on the color and the size and am satisfied with both. I was well aware that this was described as an 'indoor-outdoor' rug but I did not realize that this would be a woven rug without any kind of pile or depth to it. The description gave a pile depth that was miniscule but I have found 'pile' to be non-existent; it is more like a piece of cloth than a carpet. While I have not had any problem with the edges curling up or rolling, which would seem to attest to the rug having some heft to it despite the lack of pile, after two weeks on the floor it still shows lumps from being stored/shipped rolled up. I am using this rug to protect a hardwood floor in a study, and while I would have preferred a rug with some pile depth and softness, it is serving its purpose, and the color and design were just what I wanted..
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The onscreen color was an excellent match to the actual product.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Satisfactory within limits
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Did not emphasize enough that this is a rug without any pile.
