Tired of having my doors snag on my old rug every time I went out to my patio,  I needed a cheerful rug by my French doors that was thin enough for the doors to clear it.  This rug met all my requirements:  inexpensive, with bright colors that blended nicely with my large, expensive oriental rug in the center of the room; tightly woven and very low profile, easy to spot clean and quick drying, can endure heavy foot traffic.  Now, I smile every time I walk outside.
