Runner Rug 4 ft x 56 ft Low Profile Indoor/Outdoor Runner - Non-Slip

In this review the ZGR HOME&GARDEN runner rug is judged on durability, comfort and practicality for busy zones. The bottom line: this long, low-profile runner is best for high-traffic hallways, kitchens and entryways where a slim, non-slip surface is needed. The 1/4 in pile keeps doors clear and the rubber backing eliminates the need for a pad, making installation and cleaning straightforward for households with kids, pets or frequent visitors.

Key Features

• Low-profile pile: The 1/4 in surface lies flat underfoot so doors clear easily while still feeling comfortable when you stand on it.
• Non-slip rubber backing: The rubber back keeps the runner firmly in place on hard floors and reduces the need for extra pads.
• Durable polyester face: Dense polyester construction resists shedding and fading for long-lasting use in heavy traffic areas.
• Stain-resistant surface: Spills are easy to spot clean with mild soap and a damp cloth, helping maintain appearance in kitchens and entryways.
• Custom sizes available: More than 200 sizes can be ordered or cut to fit stairs, shelves or other nonstandard spaces for flexible installs.

Who It's For

The runner is ideal for homeowners or renters who need a long, slim solution for corridors, kitchens, patios and RV entryways; it suits families with pets and children because it is easy to clean and resists stains. People who want a rug that stays put without an extra pad will appreciate the built-in rubber backing and low clearance under doors.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers wanting a plush, high-pile decorative rug or anyone who plans to machine wash a rubber-backed rug, since the manufacturer advises against machine washing to avoid backing damage.

Pros & Cons

• Dense polyester face is non-shedding, fade resistant and simple to spot clean.
