We use two adjacent mats laid a carpet on a covered terrace. This is, as they used frequently occurs, covered with concrete slabs. Now we have set up there rocking chairs and wanted to protect their wooden skid. The Art coconut matting we have chosen because they are working Border and a soft rubber backing - no hard PVC backing - possess. They have been very well met all expectations. Due to the rubber fexibelen back they were wrinkle-free from the outset. The upper material is very dense woven or matted and dried to cross falling rain down quickly. The mats reliably take on the dirt and can be very good suction. Even sweeping is possible. The runners of the rocking chairs left no lasting bruises. The color seems to course. An unpleasant smell we did not notice, but this may be due to the use outdoors. Anyway, the terrace now acts almost like an enlarged living room. Overall, a withdrawal free Buy recommendation.
