I got the rug last year because it was neutral and inexpensive. My dog doesn't always hit the weewee pad and I didn't want another fancy rug getting ruined. After a year of her missing the mark many times and having my cleaning efforts only working to a point, I decided to simply replace it - easy peasy since it's so affordable. I might be imagining it, but this new one feels a little more plush than the previous one. I'll most likely buy it again in a year if her aim doesn't improve!

Pros: can't beat the price, good size, color goes with anything
Cons: can't think of any
