More designs than ever make outdoor rugs a stylish and durable choice for high-traffic rooms

I can't tell you how many rugs my family and I have gone through in our family room. It's a very high-traffic area with a family of five and two dogs, so I am thinking that an outdoor rug would be more practical for the space. Outdoor rugs come in all colors, shapes and sizes and are very inexpensive. They are more durable than a typical indoor rug, and you can easily clean them with a hose. The rugs will withstand heavy traffic and they don't skimp on style. Here is a roundup of a few of my favorites. — Kristin from My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia

I'm looking for a really bright red rug for our front hall - any suggestions? Other secondary colours are ok, so long as they're darker (ie no whites!).
rugs are fantastic. I have had their rugs for seven years and they still look brand new.
My husband thinks they are the bomb. UVA protected, good weight so no rug pad needed and best yet due to absorbing fibers your spills disappear in minutes. No I do not work for them but confidently sell this product to clients.
