This Bianca area rug is great for high - traffic areas. It's made of polypropylene and polyester, power - loomed in Turkey. For spills, quickly blot them with a clean, dry sponge or cloth. It's a good idea to have it professionally cleaned. Always use a proper rug pad on any surface. This will prevent the rug from slipping, make it more comfortable to walk on, and make it last longer. When you vacuum, choose a vacuum without a beater bar or set the bar to the highest pile setting. If your vacuum has different power levels, use the low setting. Vacuum the full length of the rug, turn it, and then do the next area. Don't just move the vacuum back and forth. The rug has a 0.25 pile height.
