I bought this rug with a dual purpose in mind. I'm getting ready to sell my house and become a full-time traveler in an RV. I wanted a good looking rug for my front porch while the house is on the market that I can take and use outside the RV once I'm traveling.

I had debated with myself about whether to get a rug for the RV because of weight issues and I was also concerned about rolling it up when it was soaked if it rained right before I was going to relocate.

When I picked up the box it came in I was shocked by how light it felt. My worries about adding too much weight with a rug are gone! This is very light. It is also kind of plasticy, so I don't think it is going to soak up water and get heavy when it is out in the rain. It will add great color, help keep dirt out of the trailer, and not become a headache when it is time to pack up.

I'll see how it lasts and update this later. I've already decided that when I'm in a location that doesn't have much shade, I'll put the side I like less on top and when I'm in shadier locations, I'll put up my favorite side. I don't know if fading will be an issue, but if it is, this choice will make the side I like most last longer.

The blue is vibrant. The green is soothing. I am very happy with this mat. (They don't call it a rug -- they refer to it as a "mat" on the box and I think that's a good description.

The colors are so vivid. Bright seafoam green and blue. It's just beautiful. My patio umbrella is a "Caribbean blue" which I thought might clash a little with the colors of the mat, but they are perfect together. The design around the outside edge of the mat is prettier than the online pictures. I had some difficulty deciding which side of the mat to start with.

It is folded in 3 on the long side and then folded on the short edge to fit into the lightweight storage bag. Not sure I'll get it into that bag but appreciate the thoughtful addition. The edges lay flat. It's somewhat breezy today and the mat edges are staying put.

Design does not exactly match up along the 3 major folds where joined together, but that's not a deal breaker for me. It's not that far off.

To get the patio table onto the mat without damaging the mat, I put one table leg onto the mat at a time, placing a furniture slider under each leg. Once all 4 sliders were in place, I carefully moved the table where I wanted it. The weighted umbrella stand has rubber feet so it slid into place easily. If you have someone to help lift your heavier furniture onto the mat, I would still recommend putting the sliders under the legs to prevent damage to the mat.

I'm very pleased with the quality of the mat for this price point. I paid over $300 for the last 9x12 mat and it was faded and ripped after 4 or 5 years. I could buy one of these every year or 2 for that price. I'm not wasteful, but these mats are made of woven plastic so they're not intended to last forever. I'll treat this well and hope for a good long run with it

The pattern and colors weren't for us so we returned it.

Looks great on our back porch
