Stair Runner Samples — Order Before You Buy See and feel the carpet before you commit. With over 40 stair runner styles available as individual carpet samples, you can test colors, textures, and patterns in your own home under your actual lighting conditions — the only reliable way to ensure a perfect match before placing a custom order. 5 samples is $35 and ships fast. Custom stair runners are cut to order and cannot be returned, so ordering a sample first is always worth it. Why Order a Sample? Carpet colors look different on screen than in person — your home’s lighting changes everything Test the texture and pile height against your existing flooring and decor Confirm the exact width and pattern scale before placing a full order Samples ship fast — most leave our facility the next business day How It Works Select the carpet style you want to sample from the dropdown. Each sample is a generous cut of the actual carpet — the same material, construction, and finish used in our full runners. Samples are non-returnable and non-refundable. Ready to Order Your Runner?
