I love this area rug! The colors are exactly what I was looking for and were represented as well as possible in photos from the site. It is very low pile as a screen printed design on a rubber backed material more like a mat than a rug actually but that’s exactly what we needed so our daughters wheelchair would maneuver over top with ease. I have not washed it in a machine yet but have had to clean up cat vomit a few times. This is where I was concerned on how it would hold up & happily the cleaning product I prefer, Woolite Carpet & Upholstery with a convenient brush attachment for scrubbing, did not affect or damage the surface of the rug. The edges are well embroidered & the rug laid flat as soon as I rolled it out with the slightest lip from the inner most edge of the roll direction. This rug will definitely last a long time & with the classic design won’t appear dated anytime soon. Very pleased with this purchase!
