Not sure which rug size is right for your room?

What rug size do I need?

Measure the room before ordering. The rug should connect the furniture and leave a visible border of floor around the room.

Helpful rule: When you are between two sizes, the larger size usually gives the room a more balanced look.

Placement tips

Living room

Center the rug with the seating. At minimum, place the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug. Larger rooms usually look best when all furniture legs sit on the rug.

Dining room

Make sure chair legs remain on the rug when the chairs are pulled out. About 24 inches of rug beyond each side of the table is a useful target.

Bedroom

The rug should extend beyond the sides and foot of the bed. Place the rug under the lower two-thirds of the bed when it does not fit beneath the entire bed.

Runners

Leave a few inches of visible floor on both sides. Center the runner in the hallway or open walking path.

Round rugs

Round rugs work especially well under round tables and in square entry areas. Choose a diameter large enough to hold the furniture, not just the table top.

Measure before ordering

  1. Measure the exact length and width of the area.
  2. Use painter's tape to mark the rug outline on the floor.
  3. Check that doors, floor vents, and walking paths remain clear.
  4. View the taped outline from the room entrance before choosing.

Care Information

Polyester Care Instructions:
• Vacuum regularly using suction only or with the beater bar turned off.
• Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Do not rub or scrub the rug.
• For small spots, use mild detergent mixed with water. Test in a hidden area first.
• Blot with clean water to remove soap residue, then blot dry with a clean towel.
• Allow the rug to dry completely before placing furniture back on it.
• Rotate the rug periodically, especially in high-traffic areas, so wear and fading are distributed more evenly.
• Use a rug pad to reduce movement, help protect the floor, and extend the life of the rug.
• Indoor or outdoor use is recommended only if the product is specifically marked outdoor safe.

Warnings:
• Do not machine wash unless the product is specifically labeled machine washable.
• Do not bleach.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive brushes, or high-powered vacuums.
• Avoid prolonged moisture. Do not leave the rug wet or folded while damp.
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight unless the rug is specifically marked outdoor safe or fade resistant.

ALWAYS REFER TO THE LABEL ON THE BACK OF THE RUG FOR CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Nice Rug But ...

Rug looks good and meets my needs. I put a good quality pad under the rug and I think it needs it. My only concern is that it sheds fibers. My friend told me she thought it would quit shedding but it's been 5 months. Fibers don't seem to make the rug look thinner or sparse, so I'm not sure what will happen over time. It's a long shag and maybe if shedding is a concern, not buying a shag would be a better choice.
