This rug was needed to put on a covered porch -- so it was ideal for what I needed. I do like the fact that the fibers are the softest that can be made from polypropylene -- so it's very comfortable to the feet. Note, however, the length is not a true 12 feet, if that makes a difference -- it actually came in at ll feet, 7 inches. All in all, a beautiful carpet if dark green is needed.
