Choosing washable rugs

Washable rugs can be cleaned at home, either in a washing machine or by hand, depending on the size and the maker's instructions. Always check the care label on the product page for the temperature and method. Large washable rugs may not fit a domestic machine, so hand washing or a launderette with a large drum may be needed. Washable rugs suit kitchens, children's rooms and homes with pets.

Is 120 x 170 cm the right size?

A 120 x 170 cm rug measures roughly 3 ft 11 in by 5 ft 7 in and covers about 2.0 square metres. In a living room, a common guideline is to leave 30 to 60 cm of floor between the rug and the walls, which suggests a room of roughly 1.8 x 2.3 m to 2.4 x 2.9 m. Its 170 cm length sits comfortably in front of a sofa up to about 140 cm wide (allowing about 15 cm of rug beyond each end). It is generally too small to sit under a dining table with the chairs, which needs about 60 cm of rug beyond the table on every side.

Care and cleaning

The care instructions given by the makers of these rugs include: "Machine washable at 30 degrees" (1 design); "Machine wash on a delicate cycle and lay flat to dry" (1 design). Vacuum regularly, ideally with a suction-only head or with the beater bar raised for deeper piles, and blot spills straight away from the outside in rather than rubbing. Always follow the care label on the product page, and test any cleaner on a hidden corner first. It is usually lighter and more affordable than wool and does not shed in the same way, but the pile can flatten in heavy traffic over time.

What are washable rugs in 120 x 170 cm made from?
