FAQs
What material is the Maestro Rug made of?
The front pile is 100% Polypropylene. The reverse is made of 87% Polypropylene, 8% Synthetic Latex, and 5% Polyester.
Is this rug suitable for bathrooms?
While the polypropylene is somewhat resistant to moisture, it is not specifically designed for wet areas like bathrooms. It is best suited for living areas and hallways. Spot clean only applies.
How often should I vacuum the rug?
Regular vacuuming is recommended to keep the pile clean and free of debris. Aim for at least once a week, more often in high-traffic areas.
Can I use a carpet cleaner machine on this rug?
We do not recommend using carpet cleaner machines as they can oversaturate the rug and potentially damage the backing. Spot cleaning with a mild detergent is the preferred method.
What are the dimensions of this specific rug?
This listing is for the 160cm x 120cm size in the Green Checkered pattern.
Does the rug come with a rug grip?
No, the 'Rug Grip Hold' is sold separately but is highly recommended for safe use on smooth surfaces.
How do I deal with strong odors if they occur?
Ensure the rug is completely dry after any spot cleaning. For persistent odors, sprinkle baking soda over the rug, let it sit for several hours, then vacuum thoroughly.
Troubleshooting
Rug won't lay flat
Ensure the rug has had sufficient time to relax after unrolling (at least 24-48 hours). You can also try placing heavy books on the curled edges for a temporary fix.
Stain remains after spot cleaning
For stubborn stains, try a specialized rug cleaner suitable for polypropylene, following the product's instructions carefully. Always test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
Rug is slipping on the floor
Use a 'Rug Grip Hold' specifically designed for rugs. Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry before placing the rug and grip.
Fraying edges
Trim any loose threads carefully with scissors. Avoid pulling on them, as this can cause further unraveling. Ensure the rug is not placed in a way that causes constant friction on the edges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unroll the rug completely and allow it to lay flat for at least 24 hours to help remove creases from packaging.
- If placing on a smooth surface like tile, laminate, or hardwood, it is strongly recommended to use a 'Rug Grip Hold' underneath to prevent slipping and extend the rug's life.
Compatibility:
- The Maestro Rug is suitable for most indoor areas, including living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining areas.
- It is particularly recommended for high-traffic zones.
- Due to the polypropylene and synthetic latex backing, consider potential interactions with certain floor finishes. Using a rug grip is advisable.
Care:
- Spot Clean Only: For immediate attention to spills, gently blot the affected area with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-bleach detergent. Avoid soaking the rug.
- Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner without a beater bar (or set the beater bar to its highest setting) to avoid damaging the pile.
- Rotation: Periodically rotate the rug to ensure even wear, especially in high-traffic areas.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading over time.
