What a great price on this rug!  My husband's newly finished "man crack" (because it is too narrow to properly be considered a man cave) needed an inexpensive, easy to clean rug and this does the trick.  Rug is comfortable without having too high of a pile.  Considering that our cats hang out in there I think it will make it easier to keep clean.  Also, the pattern is busy enough to hide cat hair and dust - so I don't need to venture in there as often to clean.
