Love these mats. We first ordered the brown, but it was more of a terra cotta color. LL Bean made the switch for us to charcoal. It was easy. They sent us a return lablel and shipped out the new color. I have the charcoal and green now. Both true colors to the picture on the website. These mats last forever. We have them on our deck and leave them outside all year long.
I had initially purchased a smaller version of the 'waterhog' rug for my dog and really liked it. So, I decided to purchase another for our main hallway by mud room. I am pleased with the look of material. The only drawback is the comfort factor on the feet; not very supple and you need footwear if standing on for a time. Also, I wish that the sizes could be more customized; a little bit too short w/current size, but upgrade would not have worked. I will see about durability when the winter has passed, but for right now, I would recommend this mat.
I honestly don't even know how many of these I've ordered so that should speak for itself! We have all different sizes/colors. Our laundry room looks so nice now with a large one in there - no more stepping in the occasional water drain overflow. The big one in our covered porch added more color and now there's less tracking in the house as we have a mat by every outside door to our house. Thank you, LLBean!
