What sizes are bath rugs available in?

It is important to measure your floor space before making a bath rug investment. It might also be a good idea to know how much space you have below your bathroom door because if you choose a bath rug with a high pile, but your door has a low swing, you will constantly be frustrated every time your door gets stuck on the rug.

 

·        Standard Size: The typical standard size for a bath rug is a 24” x 36” rectangle, though they can be found in a variety of dimensions from 21”x26” to 32”x24”.

·        Premium Size: Oversized rugs generally come in a 30”x50” rectangle, but can also vary in their dimensions.

·        Bathroom Size: Bath rugs can be found in sizes to cover the entire floor of the bathroom. These range from 6’x4’ on up to 6’x12’.

·        Specialty Sizes: Circle rugs are usually around 27” in diameter.

·        Ovals: Ovals can be found in as wide a variety as the rectangle rugs, with 59”x24” being a common size.

·        Bath runners: These tend to be much longer than a regularly sized bath rug. 22”x60” is a general size for a bath runner.

·        Unique Shapes: Bath rugs can be found in almost any shape you can think up. With a little creative searching, you can find them in the shapes of flowers, lions, dinosaurs, or race cars, to name a few. Special consideration needs to be taken when thinking of purchasing a bath rug of unique shape as sometimes companies, in their quest for cuteness, forget about quality. This can result in a product that looks great the first week you have it in your bathroom, but after a few uses is too quickly ready for replacement. Trusted brands are probably the way to go even when considering a clever decorative enhancement for your bathroom floor.

·        Made to Order: For the bathroom in which a standard size bath rug simply will not do, bath rugs can be custom designed to a customer’s specifications. It is important to note that your measurements and color choice should be extremely accurate when placing your order, as custom cut bath rugs are non-returnable.

·        Sets: Bath rugs can be purchased as separate items or as a package deal. Many stores offer bath rugs in the following ways:

o       Individual rugs, any size

o       Sets of two of the same size

o       Sets of two; one bath rug for outside the bathtub, one for under the sink

o       Sets of three; the same as above with the addition of a toilet seat cover
