I think I liked these runners a lot more when I paid $80 each for them. The price increase over the past 2 years or so is unbelievable. These rugs are virtually not able to be cleaned when you spill on them. I wouldn't continue buying them except I have 2 others in my house so to keep the uniformity I continue replacing with these. Eventually I'll just have to replace them all. I love the sisal look which is why I keep coming back to them.
