This is a perfect kitchen rug as it's not too expensive and it won't show dirt of stains easily. It gives my feet and my dogs a nice warm place to put our feet (or in their case, lie down) while cooking or at the kitchen sink.

Pros: Disappears on a gray floor, which is what I wanted. Doesn't show dirt, stains or animal fur.
Cons: Feels a bit artificial but I don't mind for a kitchen rug.
