We have tried JC Penny, Target, WalMart, Bed Bath and Beyond, and internet searches.

It seems the current offerings of 24" x 36" washable throw rugs which we use in the MH are very limited.

Where did you find your washable throw rugs?

I got a couple of cheap throw rugs from a closeout type store and I use my carpet cleaner to wash them in the driveway.
Word of warning on carpet cleaners: they will ruin hardwood floors but for throw or area rugs that you can do in the driveway they are great.

Our friends with pets seem to use thick bath towels, HarveyP

Ikea. Cheap, washable, cotton throw rugs for less than $4-5 each.

Hope that helps.

Looks like you have searched all the right spots we got ours at Bed bath in
San Diego how ever we are in the desert at present and they have a limited
supply and nothing that will match anything !! any time we travel I fold and lay cotten painters tarps in the walk area thru the coach and they wash up real nice ! we always
have clean spares when needed

Got mine at a craft fair. They were made from tube socks. Seen the same thing at permanent flea market sites.

X3 IKEA is the best and very reasonably priced! We get all our bedding there too.

Oh yeah, forgot about the ones I picked up at Ikea. Fun place to spend a day.

Thanks we will try to visit Ikea.

Their website certainly sucks.

A search for "rugs kitchen" turned up a huge number of pages of hits. The first pages were all window curtains and place mats.

Obviously there is a translation problem for their web designer.

I always find these at Big Lots for around $4-$8 tops. Lots to choose from.

i bought 3 - 36" X 72" at Bed Bath and Beyond. These are about 1' too long, but fit from the front of our coach all the way to the bathroom door. They are backed by a non-slip surface and don't slide on the floor. I overlap the front two and it seems to work out okay.
