Absolutely love this rug under my dining table.  It's taken me 3+ years to purchase one that I thought might go well - my table chairs are neutral in color but have a definite pattern to them.  Keeping both rug and chairs neutral in color and the pattern in the rug more than anything gives the rug a bit of texture so it doesn't compete with the patterns on the chairs.  Haven't had any spills yet so will be fun to find out how easy this is to clean..
