One thing to consider is if your walkway is painted or not. When we had our driveway and walkway to the front door painted, it was suggested that we NOT get mats with a rubber backing.....they can stick to the paint in the heat and pull it up when you pick up or move the mat. [QUOTE]

Pooh makes a good point. That is exactly what happened with us. The floor of our birdcage is painted. We had a mat outside the sliders. It started looking tatty so we threw it out. Now the floor has white spots where the rug pulled up the paint. But I guess we can cover it up with another rug.
