We bought this rug for the kitchen and it looks great. We needed something for the kitchen that would look nice, make the kitchen feel warm and could withstand the footfall and food spills. Food and spills wipe up nicely and so far it’s looking clear ( especially after the busy Christmas period). Good value for money as similar item cost twice as much. You do need a slip mat underneath but otherwise a great item. I have bought a small size for elsewhere in the kitchen.
