Runner Rug 2 ft x 71 ft Indoor/Outdoor Low Profile - Slip Resistant

In this review the ZGR HOME&GARDEN runner rug proves itself as a practical solution for busy hallways and entryways; it is aimed at homeowners who need a long, low-profile runner that withstands heavy foot traffic and occasional outdoor exposure. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a thin 1/4 in pile with a non-slip rubber backing, which keeps the rug low enough to clear doors while staying firmly in place on tile or wood floors. Overall this is a functional, easy-care runner for everyday use.

Key Features

• Low-profile 1/4 in pile: The thin pile sits flat under doors and provides a comfortable surface without adding bulk to transitions.
• High-density polyester: The material is stain resistant and non-shedding, making it simple to maintain in high-traffic areas.
• Non-slip rubber backing: The rubber backing prevents slipping so no additional rug pad is needed for most floors.
• Custom sizes available: More than 200 sizes can be made to fit unusual spaces or be trimmed for stair and shelf use.
• Indoor/outdoor versatility: Designed to perform in kitchens, entryways, patios and garages where durability and water resistance matter.
• Easy care: Spot clean with mild soap, blot moisture, rotate and vacuum to keep the runner looking like new.

Who It's For

This runner suits families, pet owners and renters who need a long, durable rug that handles heavy use and occasional outdoor exposure; it is especially good for hallways, kitchens and entryways where a low pile and strong backing matter. It is also useful for RV owners and garage thresholds where a long, narrow, weather-tolerant mat is handy.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers wanting a plush or high-pile decorative carpet, or anyone planning to machine wash the rug frequently since the rubber backing may be damaged by heat and heavy washing. Also, shoppers seeking highly detailed oriental patterns or wool construction should consider other options.

Pros & Cons
