I bought this rug for my dining room. I knew that it was indoor/outdoor which was appealing because I have two very messy kids, but it has a fairly offensive sheen to it. I am not sure whether it is because it was built to withstand weather, but I do not like it at all for an interior rug. Eventually I am going to move this rug out to my patio and replace it with something else. All this said, if you do not mind a prominent sheen, this is a descent rug for the price.
