I had to replace a rug that my puppy had stained beyond hope. I wanted something I could more easily clean and resist staining so I decided to try an outdoor rug. I was getting so discouraged because I couldn’t find a pattern suitable for my formal living room, but when I came across this one, I figured it would do. I am so happy I bought it. It is light enough that I could lay it myself, thin and of a material I can easily wipe off, but best of all, the color and pattern look great in my room. I chose not to use a pad because my furniture will hold it in place and I had to put some weight on the corners but I’m sure it won’t take long to smooth out. All in all, I think it was a great value for the size alone. The pattern and color being just right is a bonus.
