Elite Traditional Handmade Wool Rug Runner (2'6 x 8')

Rating

The runner was better than represented on the net. It is plush, rich in color and beautifully made. Every time I walk on it, it makes me happy.

My spouse was concerned that I'd blown our budget on such a quality product; but was relieved when he learned I'd purchased it from Overstock. A visitor has commented that the rug is stylish and high-quality. The colors are spectacular. Great value.

I bought the same rug in the 12' length and absolutely loved it so I ordered another one but in the 8' length. The minute I opened the plastic bag it was shipped in I knew something was wrong. There was a strong odor that permeated the bag, a chemical-like smell and when I laid the rug down on my hardwood floor, there was what felt like fine sand all under the rug. I vacuumed the rug (which filled my vacuum canister twice with lint) and flipped over the rug and vacuumed the bottom side. When I slide my hand over my hardwoods, I still feel this sand. I don't know why this rug came in the condition that it did. The odor will probably go away eventually (I hope) and I will keep vacuuming until all this sand is gone. I am keeping this rug only because it is too much trouble returning (with the shipping costs, etc). Don't get me wrong. The rug is gorgeous, with its beautiful colors of burgundy, black and hints of green. It's very plush and looks expensive. I only wish it arrived in better condition.

I ordered this to coordinate with a foyer rug ordered at the same time from OVERSTOCK (the Traditions Black/burgundy Silk/Wool 4'x6' run. I was looking to "reverse" the color pattern. The other rug I have has a black middle and burgundly border and this has just the opposite, though with a different pattern. I was told by my deocorator friend not to get this to be too "matchy matchy" or the same, so having the same coordinating colors and different pattens and two different shapes (a runner and an area rug) really achieved that goal. The colors are true--the burgundy IS burgundy and not red, as I had noted from other write-ups by other customers about other rugs offered by OVERSTOCK. It is a plush rug, feels good underfoot. It is also wide enough--you should check the measurement of your hallway, both the length and the width before purchasing as you are charged for returns. I was charged over $20.00 at UPS for the return shipping on a runner that I returned.
