FAQs

Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas?

Yes, the 100% polypropylene fiber is highly durable and engineered to retain its volume even with regular use.

Does it need a rug pad?

The rug includes a sturdy jute backing that provides good grip, but a rug pad is recommended if you have very slick flooring or want extra padding.

Can I use a vacuum cleaner on it?

Yes, but use a vacuum with low suction and no beater bar to prevent damaging the deep pile fibers.

Is the rug safe for children?

Yes, it is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, meaning it has been tested to meet strict safety standards for chemicals.

How do I deep clean the rug?

The rug is designed for hand washing; use cool water and a mild detergent, then allow it to air dry completely.

What is the exact pile height?

The rug features an ultra-thick 45mm deep pile for maximum softness.

Troubleshooting

Rug edges curling after unrolling

Reverse roll the edges in the opposite direction and weigh them down with heavy books for 24 hours.

Pile looks flattened in high-traffic areas

Use your hands or a soft-bristled brush to gently tease the fibers back up, or carefully use a vacuum on low suction to fluff the pile.

Spill or stain on the rug

Blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth; do not rub. Follow with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Extremely soft and thick texture
Sturdy jute backing prevents sliding
Safe for households with children due to OEKO-TEX certification
Resistant to moisture and everyday wear
Easy to clean and maintain

Cons

High pile can trap debris more easily than low-pile rugs
Requires regular vacuuming to keep fibers standing
Not machine washable, requires manual surface cleaning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your rug, unroll it in your desired location and allow it to lay flat for 24-48 hours to remove any curling from packaging. The integrated jute backing provides excellent traction on wood, laminate, or tile floors, though a rug pad can be added if you require additional cushioning.

For regular maintenance, vacuum the rug on a low-suction setting without a beater bar to avoid pulling the fibers. For spot cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild detergent to blot spills immediately, as the moisture-resistant polypropylene material prevents stains from setting deeply. Since the rug is hand washable, you can perform periodic deeper refreshes using cool water and a gentle brush to maintain the pile's bounce.
