To use this rug, simply place it in your desired area in your home. Since it's not machine - washable, for cleaning, you can use a soft - bristle brush to gently remove dirt and debris. Vacuum it regularly on a low - suction setting to keep it looking fresh. As it doesn't have non - slip features, you might want to use a rug pad for safety. Keep in mind that the sizes can vary a bit, so measure your space well before placing it. And because it's made in India with natural fibers, avoid exposing it to excessive moisture to prevent damage.
