Product Information
Full details
The JVL Vector Black Indoor Washable Runner is designed for homeowners seeking to protect their floors from dirt, moisture, and wear while adding a modern geometric touch to their entrance, hallway, or kitchen. Its key benefit is the dual action of trapping debris and absorbing liquids, thus maintaining cleaner and safer floors. A minor caveat is its specific size (57 x 150cm), which may not fit all spaces. This runner features a visually appealing criss-cross pattern in two shades of black, effectively traps dust and dirt, absorbs moisture, and includes a non-slip latex backing for stability. It is also conveniently machine washable.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the JVL Vector Black Runner?
The approximate dimensions are 57cm x 150cm.
Can this runner be used outdoors?
No, this runner is designed exclusively for indoor use to protect against dirt and moisture tracked into the home.
How often should I wash the runner?
Washing frequency depends on usage and soiling. For high-traffic areas, washing it once a month or as needed will keep it fresh and effective.
What kind of flooring is best suited for this runner?
It is suitable for most hard indoor floor types such as wood, tile, and laminate, as well as low-pile carpets.
Will the black color fade after washing?
Washing at 30 degrees Celsius with standard detergents should preserve the color. Avoid harsh chemicals or high temperatures.
Is the backing non-slip on all floor types?
The latex backing provides slip resistance on most floor types, but its effectiveness can depend on the specific floor surface and its condition (e.g., smoothness, cleanliness).
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
It is generally recommended to avoid fabric softeners, as they can sometimes reduce the absorbency and grip of the latex backing over time.
Troubleshooting
Runner is not staying in place.
Ensure the floor beneath is clean and dry before placing the runner. The latex backing works best on a dry surface. If the backing appears worn, it may need replacement.
Runner still appears dirty after washing.
Check the washing machine load size; avoid overcrowding. For heavy soiling, a pre-soak or a second rinse cycle might be beneficial. Ensure the correct wash cycle (30 degrees Celsius) is used.
Fibers are flattening or becoming matted.
Regular vacuuming can help maintain the loft of the fibers. Avoid excessive heat during drying, as this can flatten them.
