160 x 230 cm Rugs
160 x 230cm is the standard living room rug and the size we sell most of. Nearly every design we stock comes in it, so this is the best place to browse the whole range in one go. Close sizes from 160 x 220cm to 170 x 240cm are gathered here too.
Also written as 160x230, 160 x 230 cm or about 5ft 3in x 7ft 7in. For how a rug this size should sit with your sofa, read our room-by-room rug size guide.
It works because it is big enough to reach under the front legs of a three-seat sofa and two chairs, which is the arrangement that makes a seating area look furnished rather than floating. You will find everything here: pure wool classics (Kashqai), traditional Persian-style designs (Da Vinci, Galleria, Ziba), distressed abstracts, carved and lustrous piles (Cleo, Quartz), deep shaggies (Twilight, Mehari), natural jute and cotton flatweaves, washable ranges, and the Calvin Klein, DKNY and Nourison designer collections.
If the room is open-plan or the sofa is a large corner unit, 200 x 290cm is usually the better buy — a rug that is slightly too big for a room looks generous, while one that is slightly too small looks like a mistake.
Every rug comes with free delivery to UK mainland addresses, and our family team — rug specialists since 1961 — is happy to help with sizes, colours or care. Order online, or see the rugs for yourself at our showroom in Lostock Hall, Preston, open Monday to Saturday.
