For the price (i got it during one of the area rug sales) it was worth it. i bought the 10' x 13' rug for our deck. definitely more washed out than the picture, which was a little annoying since easier to see any dirt. cleans amazingly! girlfriend spilled a bottle of red wine on it...cleaned it off the next morning with some dish soap a sponge and the garden hose! can't even see a mark!pros: cleans easily, dries out quickly after rainy day...cons: more faded than the picture...
