Blueriver Charcoal 2'6 x 7'10 Runner Rug

Measuring 2'6" wide by 7'10" long, this rug fits perfectly within the standard 2-to-3-foot width recommended for most household hallways. To achieve a professional, balanced look, we suggest leaving at least 2 to 4 inches of floor visible on either side of the rug. This creates a frame of flooring that provides visual definition and keeps the space from feeling overcrowded.

This runner’s transitional Oriental pattern and charcoal color palette are ideal for smaller urban layouts. The intricate design provides a "visual path" that draws the eye forward, helping to elongate a cramped hallway. Furthermore, the blend of charcoal, gray, and black is exceptionally effective at disguising the dirt and debris often tracked into apartment entryways, keeping your home looking pristine between cleanings.

This rug is specifically engineered for durability, featuring a power-loomed construction from a blend of 90% polyester and 10% polypropylene. These synthetic fibers are highly resilient and naturally resistant to the wear and tear typically found in busy transitional spaces. The low pile height further enhances its performance by providing a smooth surface that is less likely to catch on swinging doors or create tripping hazards.

For maximum safety and to protect your flooring, we highly recommend using a non-slip rug pad underneath. A pad provides the necessary "grip" to keep the runner securely in place during high foot traffic. Additionally, using a rug pad prevents the backing from rubbing against your floor and adds a subtle layer of cushioning that helps the rug retain its shape over time.

Based on our expertise with these materials, synthetic fiber rugs like this one are among the easiest to maintain. For day-to-day care, regular vacuuming is essential to prevent dirt from settling. For spills, our care guidelines recommend blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth and using a mild detergent for spot cleaning. Because it is made of polyester and polypropylene, it can also be professionally steam-cleaned when a deeper refresh is needed.

Absolutely. The tight weave of the polyester and polypropylene fibers makes this rug highly resistant to snagging from pet claws. The low pile is also a strategic choice for busy families, as it does not trap pet hair or dander as easily as high-pile rugs, making it much easier to keep clean and allergen-free with regular vacuuming.
