FAQs
What material is the rug made from?
The product information does not specify the exact material, but it features a plush shaggy pile suitable for adding warmth and comfort.
How often should I vacuum the rug?
It is recommended to vacuum the rug regularly, ideally once or twice a week, to keep the pile clean and prevent dirt from settling. Avoid using a brush roller on your vacuum cleaner.
Can this rug be used in a bathroom?
While the rug adds warmth and softness, it is generally intended for living areas or bedrooms. Its absorbency might not be ideal for consistently damp environments like bathrooms, and lighter colours could stain easily.
What is the best way to clean a spill?
Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry cloth to absorb as much liquid as possible. Then, use a slightly damp cloth with a very mild detergent, blotting gently from the edges inward. Allow to air dry completely.
Will the cream colour fade over time?
To maintain the colour and prevent fading, avoid placing the rug in direct, prolonged sunlight. Rotating the rug periodically can also help ensure even exposure and wear.
Does the rug come with a non-slip backing?
The product description does not mention a non-slip backing. It is advisable to use a rug gripper or pad, especially on hard floors, to prevent slipping and add extra cushioning.
What are the exact dimensions of the rug?
The rug measures 160cm in width and 120cm in height (depth).
Troubleshooting
Rug does not lie flat
Ensure the rug has had sufficient time to settle (24-48 hours). If creases persist, try rolling the rug tightly in the opposite direction of the crease, or place heavy objects on the corners for a few days.
Pile appears matted or flattened
Vacuum the rug gently without a rotating brush. For stubborn matting, use a stiff brush or comb to carefully lift the pile fibres. Regular vacuuming and occasional brushing can prevent this.
Visible dirt or stains
Blot spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. For stains, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild, neutral soap. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Professional cleaning may be required for severe stains.
Shedding fibres
Some initial shedding is normal for shaggy rugs. Regular vacuuming will reduce this over time. Avoid overly aggressive vacuuming or pulling at loose fibres.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Unroll the rug carefully upon arrival. Allow it to lie flat for at least 24-48 hours to settle and remove any creases from packaging. For initial flattening, you can place heavy books on the corners.
Compatibility:
This rug is suitable for most indoor flooring types, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and low-pile carpet. It is not recommended for use with underfloor heating without an appropriate rug pad. For safety and to prevent slipping, consider using a rug gripper, especially on smooth surfaces.
Care:
- Vacuuming: Regularly vacuum the rug using a vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush or on a low setting to avoid damaging the pile. For shaggy rugs, consider using an upholstery attachment or vacuuming in the direction of the pile.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mild detergent mixed with water for tougher stains, blotting gently from the outside of the stain inwards. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Deep Cleaning: Professional cleaning is recommended for deep cleaning or for significant stains to maintain the rug's texture and colour.
- Rotation: Periodically rotate the rug to ensure even wear.
