King bed rug size FAQs
What size rug for a king bed?
9×12 is the standard under a king (76×80), leaving 22–28 inches of rug per side. 8×10 works as a tight-budget fit. 10×14 grounds the whole wall in large rooms.
Full nightstands on the rug or off?
Both work: run the rug under all the nightstands (usually 9×12 minimum), or keep nightstands off it in smaller rooms. The calculator above handles both.
How do I avoid the expensive mistake?
When torn between sizes, go bigger, but never at the cost of a walkway or door swing. Tape the 9×12 outline, open every door, check 24–30 in of walkway, then order.
