We were looking for a doormat for the entrance area. It should not be too thin mat with rubber back. These fairly robust, because we have kids and pets. And as we wanted even a colorful eye-catcher - not too colorful. This mat had all met. As it is in constant use, I can not say yet. But lying sick on the floor, does not slip. You can suck good - even with dog hair. When unpacking yet noticed that this mat is not terribly stinks of chemicals. Therefore: 5 stars. Now have even bought a 2nd.
