​​Kitchen Rug Sizes: What Size Rug is Best?

Some of the most popular sizes of kitchen rugs include large and extra large rugs, like runner rugs that make the space feel cohesive. Medium and small kitchen rugs are also useful in bringing together smaller spaces.

• Large and extra large rugs

Large and extra large rugs, including long runner rugs, are perfect for large kitchens because they provide comfort underfoot during long periods of standing, and can define specific areas within the space. Kitchen rugs protect the flooring from spills and scratches, and enhance safety by preventing slips. 

Runner rugs are particularly suitable for narrow spaces like kitchen corridors and high-traffic areas like in front of the sink or around kitchen islands. If you have a kitchen-dining area, a large or extra large rug under your furniture can help to create a cohesive area within the room.

• Medium rugs

Medium-sized rugs are ideal for kitchens as they offer a balance between comfort and practicality. Placing a medium-sized rug in front of the sink or stove can provide cushioning and reduce fatigue while working in the kitchen. It also adds warmth and a touch of your own personal style to the space, without overwhelming it like a larger rug might. 

Medium-sized rugs are easy to clean and maintain, making them a convenient choice for busy kitchen environments. They can also help to define a designated area or create a visual focal point, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your kitchen.

• Small rugs

Small rugs are excellent additions to kitchens as the are both versatile and practical. Placing a small rug near your sink or work area adds a cosy and decorative touch to the space as well as a soft landing spot for your feet. 

Small rugs are also portable, allowing you to switch them out or move them to different areas as needed. They are an ideal choice for compact kitchens or for adding a pop of colour or pattern to your kitchen decor without overwhelming the space.

​​Where do you put a rug in the kitchen?

When it comes to placing a rug in the kitchen, there are several spots to consider. One of the most popular areas is in front of the sink, as standing for extended periods while washing dishes can be tiring. So putting a rug in this location provides cushioning and extra comfort underfoot.

Another great place is in front of the stove or cooking area, as it protects the floor from spills and splatters. This makes cleanup easier, and provides a soft surface for cooks who spend a lot of time in the kitchen.

If you have an island or a designated dining area in your kitchen, placing a rug underneath it can define the space and add a touch of warmth and style. This placement works well for larger rugs or runner rugs, and can be easily moved if you rearrange your furniture.

Small rugs or mats near entryways can also help to trap dirt and debris from outside, preventing it from spreading throughout the kitchen.

Ultimately, the best place to put a rug in the kitchen will depend on your specific needs and the layout of your space. But consider high-traffic areas, comfort, functionality, and the overall aesthetic impact when choosing the perfect spot for your kitchen rug.
