This doormat is very well made and seems quite durable.  I love the fact that it was a wider rug and fits across our front door space.  I originally bought it for outside our front door, but the rug is so pretty I ended up placing it just inside the front door.  Its good at catching dirt from shoes when you walk inside, and its easy to clean just by shaking it out or hosing it down if any mud gets on it.  Im also able to vacuum it, and it stays in place well.  I bought another one to put outside the front door!  Great buy and lovely design.
