Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Carefully unroll your new rug in its desired location.
- Flatten: Allow the rug to settle. Any creases from packaging should relax within 24-48 hours. You can speed this up by reverse-rolling the rug for a few hours.
- Secure: A rug grip is strongly recommended for safety, especially on hard, smooth floors (e.g., hardwood, laminate, tile) to prevent the rug from slipping and bunching. Place the rug grip directly underneath the rug.
Compatibility
This rug is suitable for placement on most indoor floor types, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and even over existing low-pile carpet. Its soft texture is particularly beneficial on hard surfaces, adding warmth and cushioning.
Care
- Regular Maintenance: Vacuum regularly with a brushless attachment or shake the rug out gently to remove loose dirt and maintain fluffiness.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills and stains, act immediately. Blot (do not rub) the affected area with a clean cloth. Use a surface shampoo designed for rugs. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth, dab the stain, then blot dry with another clean, damp cloth. Always test the shampoo on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the rug's fibers and color.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning, consider professional rug cleaning services.
