OK
I went to look today. I just came back .I will check it with Olefin.
thansk again
.If you look at the manmade fibres like Olefin (THERE ARE A WHOLE BUNCH OF THEM WITH THINGS LIKE 'POLY' IN THEIR NAMES) THEY ARE GREAT FOR AREAS WITH DIRT. YOU CAN WASH THOSE THINGS WITH A GARDEN HOSE THEY ARE SO DURABLE SO IT'S EASY TO KEEP THEM LOOKING CLEAN. THEY ALSO COME IN VARIOUS QUALITIES, SOFTNESS, STYLES, ETC. WHICH CAN LOOK VERY EXPENSIVE (WELL AND SOME ACTUALLY ARE). ALSO AVOID RUBBER BACKING AT ALL COSTS AS IT WRECKS MOST FLOORS. YOU CAN GET THE ANTI SLIP UNDERMATS.
ONE OTHER CAUTION, ONE YEAR I HAD A VERY THICK SORT OF RAG RUG BY MY DOOR. IT ENDED UP BEING TOO THICK AND THE DOOR CAUGHT IT EVERYTIME.
EDIT: Sorry for the caps... the font I see when typing doesn't show the case and apparently I had caps lock on but couldn't tell until I hit submit.

I have been reading it. I was thinking it was good option.
Sisal but it is not good option.It 's very hard to clean. Can you recommend something nice for foyer?
thanks a lot
As beautiful as wool rugs can be, I don't think it would be practical to put one in the foyer. Something easy to wash woud be my first choice considering the dirt, water and salty snow that can abuse such entryway (foyer) areas.
