Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack the Rug: Carefully unroll the rug from its packaging.
- Allow to Settle: Lay the rug flat in its desired location. New rugs may have slight creases or curl at the edges from packaging. These will typically flatten out within 24-48 hours. For faster flattening, you can reverse roll the rug or place heavy objects on the corners for a short period.
- Ensure Proper Placement: Position the rug on a clean, dry floor. The anti-slip backing works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
Compatibility
- Indoor Use: This rug is designed exclusively for indoor environments, including living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, home offices, and hallways.
- Floor Types: The anti-slip PVC dot and felt backing is effective on most hard floor surfaces such as hardwood, laminate, tile, and vinyl.
- Under-door Clearance: The 22mm low pile is generally suitable for placement under most doors without impeding their movement.
Care & Maintenance
The Comfy Washable Rug is designed for stress-free maintenance.
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly with a brushless attachment to remove loose dirt and debris. Avoid using a beater bar, which can damage the low pile.
- Spot Cleaning: For small spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild rug cleaner or a mixture of gentle soap and water, dabbing gently and blotting dry.
- Washing Instructions:
- Machine Wash: For full cleaning, the rug can be machine washed. Use a large capacity washing machine (check rug size against machine capacity). Wash with cold water on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent.
- Hand Wash: Alternatively, you can hand wash the rug using cold water and mild detergent.
- Drying: Do not bleach. Air dry flat or hang to dry. Avoid direct sunlight which can cause fading over time. Ensure the rug is completely dry before placing it back on the floor to prevent mildew.
- Avoid Heat: Do not tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. High heat can damage the anti-slip backing.
