How to choose and care for a shag rug

Shag rugs have a long, dense pile, which makes them cozy underfoot but means they suit some rooms better than others.

  • Best rooms: bedrooms, living rooms, kids' play areas and reading nooks.
  • Avoid: dining rooms, where chair legs catch, and entries or kitchens with heavy traffic and spills.
  • Sizing: in a bedroom, extend the rug 18 to 24 inches beyond each side of the bed; in a living room, let the front sofa legs rest on it.
  • Pattern: solid shag shows texture; geometric and wave patterns hide footprints and vacuum lines.

Care matters with long piles. Vacuum with the beater bar turned off or use a suction-only attachment, and shake out smaller rugs outdoors. Rotate the rug every few months so traffic and sunlight wear it evenly. Blot spills immediately instead of rubbing.

A rug pad keeps a thick shag from shifting and adds cushioning. For more on pile types, read choosing a rug by construction, and see rug pads to finish the setup.
