I ordered this rug for our outdoor cement patio that is covered by a gazeebo. the old green indoor/outdoor rug would constantly roll or fold  whenever the wind blew and was getting frayed around the edges. this rug so far lays flat in the wind and looks real sharp. i only wish it came in a 10x10 size which would fit the patio perfect. it has received positive comments from friends who have been over for cook outs.
