Extra Large Rugs (240cm+)

An extra large rug is the simplest way to make a big room feel finished. In an open-plan home, a small rug tends to float in the middle of the floor. A rug of 240cm or wider can sit under the sofa, armchairs and coffee table at once, so the whole lounge reads as one zone.

Our large and extra large rugs come in 240cm x 330cm, 240cm x 340cm and 300cm x 400cm, across modern, traditional, Persian-style, natural and shaggy designs. Every rug ships free Australia-wide, which matters for a piece this size.

Which size do you need? A 240cm x 340cm rug suits most large lounge rooms and six-seat dining tables. A 300cm x 400cm rug suits open-plan living areas, eight-seat dining tables and king beds with room to spare. If your room is more modest, a 200cm x 290cm rug may be the better fit.

Measure before you buy. Mark the rug's footprint on the floor with painter's tape and live with it for a day. Aim for 20cm to 40cm of visible floor between the rug and the walls, and check that doors can still clear the pile. Rugs are only returnable if they arrive damaged or faulty, so this step is worth the few minutes it takes.

Choosing a style. At this scale a rug becomes the main feature of the room. Pale, plain and softly textured designs keep a large space calm, while Persian-style and abstract patterns add character and hide everyday marks.

What is the difference between a large and an extra large rug? There is no industry standard. We treat 240cm wide and above as extra large, and 200cm x 290cm is usually described as large.

Do large rugs need underlay? Their weight helps hold them in place, but underlay adds comfort and protects hard floors.
