How to use the "Rug Search" menu
On left side of all pages you’ll see the 'Quick rug search' menu. All the search options have been preset to 'Any' for an effortless start.
Your search result becomes more focused as more options are specified. However, if you are not sure about an option, leave it as 'Any'. Once you try a few options it will become clear.
You may want to refer to our 'How to choose a rug guide' to find out more about these options.
If you know the sizes of the rug, start with setting the 'Rug length' and 'Rug width' options. Please note the length must be greater than the width, unless the rug is a square or circular shape; which case the length and width options should be set as same.
The 'Price' option helps you to set a budget. Leave this option to 'Any' if you want to see a larger range of rugs.
Click on the search button to browse through the result pages or the rug details.
You could also sort your results based on the rug prices, newest stock, special offers and rug ratings.
