Area Rug FAQs

What size area rug should I choose?

The right size depends on your room and furniture layout. In living rooms, many homeowners choose a rug large enough for at least the front legs of the furniture to rest on it.

Can area rugs help protect hardwood floors?

Yes. Area rugs can help protect hardwood and other hard surface floors from scratches, scuffs, furniture movement, and everyday wear in busy areas.

Are runner rugs good for hallways and stairs?

Yes. Runner rugs are designed for long, narrow spaces and can add softness, visual interest, and floor protection in hallways, entryways, and stair areas.

Should I use a rug pad under my area rug?

A rug pad is often recommended because it helps keep the rug in place, adds cushioning, and provides an extra layer of protection for the flooring beneath.
