FAQs

Can this rug be used outdoors?

Yes, the Homemaker Rug is hard-wearing and suitable for both high-traffic indoor areas and outside the home, such as patios or balconies.

What is the best way to clean this rug?

For general cleaning, vacuum regularly. For spills or stains, use a surface shampoo clean only. Do not machine wash or iron the rug.

Is an anti-slip rug grip necessary?

The rug features anti-slip gel backing. However, for optimal safety and to prevent slippage on very smooth internal hard floors, we strongly advise using an additional anti-slip rug grip like the 'Rug Grip Hold'.

What material is the rug made from?

The pile of the Homemaker Rug is made from 100% Polypropylene. It also features an anti-slip gel backing.

Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas?

Absolutely. Its flatwoven pile and durable polypropylene construction make it ideal for high-traffic areas both in and outside your home.

Can I iron this rug?

No, do not iron this rug. The materials are not designed to withstand high heat and could be damaged.

How heavy is the rug?

The rug has a weight of 1.2kg per square meter.

Troubleshooting

My rug slides on my hard floor.

While the rug has anti-slip gel backing, for very smooth internal hard floors, it is highly recommended to use an additional anti-slip rug grip (such as a 'Rug Grip Hold') underneath for optimal stability and safety.

How do I remove a stain or dirt?

This rug is designed for surface shampoo cleaning only. Do not machine wash or immerse in water. Gently clean the affected area with a suitable rug shampoo according to its instructions, then allow to air dry.

The rug has creases or is not lying flat after unrolling.

This is common with new rugs. Allow 1-2 days for the rug to settle and flatten out naturally. You can also try reverse rolling the rug tightly for a few hours before laying it flat again to help accelerate the flattening process.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable and hard-wearing, perfect for busy households.
  • Easy to clean with surface shampoo, simplifying maintenance.
  • Built-in anti-slip gel backing enhances stability.
  • Versatile for both indoor and outdoor use in high-traffic zones.
  • Stylish flatweave design inspired by sisal, offering aesthetic appeal.
  • Offers good value for money due to its durability and practicality.

Cons

  • An additional rug grip is advisable for internal use on very smooth hard flooring to prevent slippage.
  • Not suitable for machine washing; only surface shampoo cleaning is recommended.
  • Cannot be ironed, which is a specific care instruction to note.
  • Flatweave construction means it won't offer the plush comfort of a high-pile rug.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Getting your Homemaker Rug ready and keeping it in top condition is simple.

Setup Instructions

  1. Unpack & Unroll: Carefully remove the rug from its packaging and unroll it in your desired location. It may take a day or two for any temporary creases from shipping to flatten completely.
  2. Placement: For internal use on hard flooring, it is *highly advisable* to use an anti-slip rug grip (e.g., 'Rug Grip Hold') underneath to prevent movement and enhance safety. The rug's built-in gel backing provides initial stability, but extra grip ensures optimal performance on very smooth surfaces.

Compatibility

This rug is designed for versatility. Its durable construction makes it suitable for:

  • High-traffic indoor areas: Hallways, kitchens, living rooms, dining areas.
  • Outdoor use: Patios, balconies, or other covered outdoor spaces.
  • Various floor types: Works well on carpeted or hard floors. On smooth hard floors, an additional anti-slip grip is crucial.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will ensure your Homemaker Rug remains a long-lasting and attractive part of your home.

  1. Cleaning: For general maintenance, vacuum regularly. For spills and stains, perform a surface shampoo clean only. Do not immerse in water or machine wash. Follow the instructions on your chosen rug shampoo.
  2. Drying: After cleaning, allow the rug to air dry completely.
  3. Do Not Iron: The polypropylene material and gel backing are not designed to withstand heat from an iron. This could cause damage.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Use only mild cleaning solutions designed for polypropylene rugs.
