Best entryway runner rugs

Top pick: Ottomanson 2'7" x 10' Non-Slip Hallway Runner — a true hallway length with a built-in non-slip backing and a low polyester pile that shrugs off wet shoes and vacuums in seconds. The red is bold; it's the one I'd put in a busy entry.

Who the others suit:

• Garvee 2x8 plaid, washable — best if you want to machine-wash it; the plaid hides dirt well.
• Ivalue 2' x 10' jute-look — long, neutral brown, non-slip: the quiet choice for a wood floor.
• Safavieh Madison boho runner — for a patterned, traditional look at a small outlay.
• Lecolaco 2'x6' vintage — shorter spaces, like a back door or galley kitchen.
• Findosom 2'x6' jute — natural texture on a tighter budget.

Skip the tiny 16"x31" and 20"x59" mats — too short to read as a runner.
