I have two of these smaller rugs in the kitchen and just got the larger one for under a kitchen table. These things wear like iron and seem to be impervious to stains and dirt. I dropped some spaghetti sauce on the new one just a day after I got it and it simply wiped up without leaving any kind of stain--important in a kitchen area with a klutzy cook! Delivered quickly, well made and they add a bit of flair to the kitchen!
