Frequently asked questions
What rug size works in a living room?
An 8 × 10 ft rug suits many living rooms, while larger seating groups often need 9 × 12 ft. At minimum, the front sofa legs should sit on the rug.
How large should a dining rug be?
Add about 24 inches on every side of the table so chairs stay on the rug when pulled back.
What rug works under a queen bed?
An 8 × 10 ft rug is a common balanced choice under a queen bed.
Can a rug be too small?
Yes. A small rug can make furniture look disconnected. Choose the next larger standard size when between options.
