Purchased this 5' rug for a utility room which serves as primary entrance from the garage into home.  Major consideration was COLOR, to coordinate with new flooring here and adjacent kitchen.  Also wanted something to collect the usual dirt and "crud" people track in.  We're used to a heavier type, washable rag rug and this is pretty light in weight, so not sure how well it'll hold up long term.  And the care instructions, it was made in India, do not indicate it's machine washable, a concern, as it will be picking up all those things tracked in from a garage in all types of weather.  There was also a long piece of fabric sticking out from its back side on arrival, which had to be trimmed off (they recommend cutting, not pulling on them).   But it was also on sale for $24, so what so you expect for that type of price.  Hopefully will last for at least a few years and washings.
