Using your new area rug is easy. Just place it on your hardwood or tile floor. For safety and to protect your floors, it's a good idea to use a rug pad under it. Since it's stain-resistant, small spills and stains can be easily wiped off. Just use a clean cloth or a mild cleaning solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the polypropylene material. Regularly vacuum the rug to keep it looking fresh. There's no need to assemble the rug as it comes ready to use. Remember, this rug is for home use only, not for commercial spaces.
