This rug was perfect for my kitchen.  The colors are muted and go perfectly with my "old world" kitchen style.  Bonus....I wash it in the washing machine and air dry and it comes out perfectly every time so I don't have to worry about spills and crumbs.   I do use some double stick tape on the corners to keep it in place or you could use a non-skid rug pad.  It does slip around because of the felt-like backing but overall an A+!  Love!
