Kitchen Rugs

Really?  I know I should be able to make a decision by myself, right?  LOL!
Michael has never been a fan of rugs.  He is a minimalist to the bone.  Anything fluffy is not his forte.  I guess that is why I am seeking advice and help from the internet… aka YOU!
I have been on the search for a kitchen rug since Michael made mention about thinking we might need one.  I took that non-committal comment and am running with it.  I wanted something that was simple, not too “showey” or “themey”, I know those are not real words but who is judging?  My kitchen space is small… sufficient but small so I don’t need flashy either.  My kitchen dimensions are nine and a half feet from counter to counter and eleven feet from stove to pantry… it is a “U” shaped space.
The kitchen rug hunt has been on.  I have looked at Target, Kohls, Ross, Costco, Home Goods, Bed Bath and Beyond and the internet.  My budget was no more than $20, for one rug to go under my kitchen sink – the place that I spend much of my kitchen time.  This is what I have come up with…

This bathroom rug I found at Bed Bath and Beyond for $16

Or this entry rug that I found at Home Goods for $9
Please excuse the finger prints, dust and mess… the pantry renegade is still taking place and I have found that it is pointless to sweep/clean until that is done.
My kitchen cabinets are chocolate brown as you can see.  The space is small and feel s a little dark because of the shape so I wanted something that was lighter in color.
Which one?  Or neither?  Suggestions?
