Perfect entry way rug...exactly what I was looking for! Needed a very low pile rug for the entryway so the door could open over it. It definitely needs a rug pad underneath so it won't slip. I also needed a somewhat neutral color so it could coordinate with 2 other rugs within eye-sight. I love that this rug is neutral and gray, but the ivory color throughout makes it much more interesting than a solid colored rug.
