This is exactly what we were looking for. It’s well-made, attractive and understated. We needed it to give the dogs some traction on the hardwood floors. So far it has held up well with no sign of wear and tear. The texture is what you’d expect for an indoor/outdoor rug - not particularly soft - so I wouldn’t recommend it if you have crawling infants or toddlers. It’s perfect for our needs, though.  I’m completely satisfied with the purchase.
