We purchased this rug to go under our kitchen/dining room table. We have a 6 person rectangular table and it fits perfect. When people are sitting in the chairs all the legs of the chairs still fit on the rug. In addition, this rug is thick and durable. However, it is not fuzzy so if food falls onto it, it should be easy to clean. Further, when we first received the rug it looked bright blue, but we have had it about 3 weeks now and the blue looks more blue/ gray.
