Jute rugs, runner rugs, or even washable rugs homes are not just for decor — they play a bigger role in the daily rhythm of life in the UK and US. They provide soft comfort to your feet after a long, hectic day and warmth on chilly mornings. At Chouhan Rugs, we’ve seen how the right rug can turn a house into a home.

Today, we’re talking about two of our most beloved categories: runner rugs and washable rugs — with a special note. While not all our rugs are washable, we do have carefully curated pieces that are designed for easy cleaning without losing their original charm.

Why Runner Rugs Belong in Every House of UK and US?

Let start with runner rugs — the slim, long, and grossly underappreciated heroes of interior design.

Whether it's a long, skinny hallway, gallery kitchen, or the edge of your bed, runner rugs do more than look good. They cover and preserve your floors, provide warmth underfoot, and create harmony in oddly shaped rooms.

Ideal For:

• Hallways: Introduce warmth and personality to what is usually the most neglected area of the house.
• Kitchens: While doing tasks like chopping or washing up a bit more convenient with our runners.
• Bedrooms: Position it by the bed for a comfortable morning touchdown.
• Entryways: Create an impressive first impression with a strategically placed, high-quality runner.

At Chouhan Rugs, our runner range is a showcase of world artistry ranging from handwoven jute designs to modern kilim patterns. Every runner is carefully designed, and we provide custom sizing on most of them to fit UK and US room layouts.

The Truth About "Washable Rugs"

We need to clear the confusion about the Term washable rugs. The term "washable" is denoted around a lot when it comes to rugs, and it tends to mislead consumers into believing any rug can be washed using a washing machine.

Here at Chouhan Rugs, we believe in honest communication and spotlight on decision-making.

So, here's the reality: Not all of our rugs are washable.

But the ones that are? They're a game changer.

What Makes a Rug Washable?

Washable rugs are designed using materials and construction techniques that allow them to withstand machine or hand washing without damage. These rugs are often thinner, flexible, and woven in a way that avoids glue, harsh chemicals, or backing that would deteriorate in water.

Our Washable Rug Collection

We have a limited collection of washable rugs, perfect for homes with pets, kids, or just everyday spills. These include:

• Cotton flatweave rugs: Light, portable, and machine-washable.
• Low-pile rugs without backing: Perfect for hand or gentle machine wash cycles.
• Indoor-outdoor hybrids: Great choice for patio or kitchen areas, easy to hose off or lightly scrub.

And yes, each washable rug we sell includes care instructions — because we want you to enjoy your rug for many years to come.

Why Do Our UK & US Customers Love Chouhan Rugs?

We proudly ship around the world, but the US and UK have become two of our biggest customer bases. Why? Because our rugs check the boxes homeowners care about most.

1. Style that Feels Global, Crafted Locally

Our rugs are truly made in India, where rug-making is part of deep tradition. At Chouhan Rugs, we combine this tradition with contemporary tastes — from boho runners for London flats to natural kilims that fit American farmhouses.

2. Quality Over Quantity

We're not about mass-produced floor rugs. Every Chouhan rug is hand-loomed or handwoven to perfection, guaranteeing durability and authenticity. Whether washable or not, each piece is testimony to craftsmanship.

3. Realistic Expectations

We don't exist to sell fantasy. If a rug is not washable, we will inform you of the fact. We will then advise on how to clean it and care for it accordingly. We prioritize long-term customer trust over short-term sales.

How to Choose the Right Rug for Your Space

If you're unsure where to start, here are a few tips which we also share with our UK & US customers:

✔ For Busy Homes

Choose flatweaves or low-pile rugs. If you have children or pets, look to our wash-friendly options — they're practical, easy-going, and stress-free.

✔ For Slim Spaces

Runners are your friend. They not only stop slipping and floor damage, but also create the illusion of length in your hallway or kitchen.

✔ For Statement Style

Dare to be bold. Select bold patterns, geometric designs, or a timeless Persian-inspired design from our hand-knotted collection.

Taking Care of Your Rug – Even if it's Not Machine Washable

So, what happens if your rug isn't machine washable? That doesn't mean it's impossible to take care of.

Here's how you can make your rug last longer:

• Regularly vacuum (without a beater bar).
• Micro-clean spills right away with mild detergent.
• Rotate every 3–6 months to prevent uneven fading or wear.
• Professional cleaning once a year for deep restoration.

And in case of doubt? Our customer care team is just an email away to provide personal cleaning recommendations for your selected rug.
