FAQs
How often should I vacuum my Oxford Shaggy Rug?
Vacuum your rug at least once a week, or more frequently in high-traffic areas.
Can I use a steam cleaner on this rug?
It is generally not recommended to use a steam cleaner on this type of rug. The heat and moisture can damage the fibers. Spot cleaning is recommended.
What should I do if my rug gets wet?
Blot up any excess moisture immediately with a clean cloth. Allow the rug to air dry completely. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight while drying.
How do I prevent the rug from sliding?
Use a rug pad underneath the rug to prevent it from sliding and to provide extra cushioning.
Is the rug suitable for use with underfloor heating?
Yes, this rug is compatible with underfloor heating systems. However, ensure the heat setting is not too high to avoid damaging the rug.
How do I remove wrinkles or creases from the rug?
Lay the rug flat in a warm room. The wrinkles should naturally disappear within a few days. You can also gently stretch the rug from opposite corners to help smooth it out.
Troubleshooting
Rug appears matted or crushed.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to lift the fibers. You can also gently shake the rug to restore its shape.
