Our 5x7 area rugs suit bedrooms, dorm rooms, home offices and small living rooms. All of them can go in a home washer: most are washable low-pile prints with a non-slip backing, while Wash Free styles shed spills and need washing far less often.

Bedrooms, Dorms and Offices
A 5x7 is about 60 x 84 inches, enough to cover the open floor of a bedroom, a dorm room or a home office without reaching the walls.
Turned sideways under a queen bed it shows only about a foot on each side, so many people set it at the foot of the bed instead.
| Room | How to place it |
|---|---|
| Bedroom | Foot of the bed |
| Dorm room | Between bed and desk |
| Home office | Under desk and chair |
Pets, Kids and Spills
Most 5x7s here are the everyday choice for bedrooms and pets: when one gets muddy or has an accident, it goes in the wash.
Wash Free 5x7s add a spill-resistant finish, so drinks bead up and wipe off if you catch them quickly. They suit a dining nook, a kids' play table or a dorm, and need washing far less often.
5x7 Rug FAQs
Is a 5x7 rug big enough for a small living room?
Yes, if it sits under the coffee table with the sofa on the bare floor around it. If you want the front legs of the sofa and chairs on the rug, a 6x9 or 8x10 fits better.
Does a 5x7 washable rug fit in a washing machine?
Yes, a 5x7 fits any washer of 2.2 cu ft or more, which includes many compact models. Wash it on its own so it moves freely, on a cold, gentle cycle without bleach.
Is a 5x7 rug considered large?
No, it is a mid-size rug: 35 square feet, larger than a 4x6 but well under the 80 square feet of an 8x10. It suits a bedroom or a small seating area rather than a full living room.
