Purchased this rug for the area between my sink and cooktop and the size is perfect. Background color is a medium beige/grey with a teal colored pattern. It is an indoor/outdoor rug, so has that feel on your feet, but it has a softer feel than most outddor rugs. I'm hoping that it will be easy to clean with soap and a hose, but time will tell. Liked it so much I will order the smaller one for my back door.
