Using this area rug is easy. Just place it on your hardwood or tile floor to instantly spruce up your living space. For its long - term use, it's a good idea to use a rug pad. This will not only prevent the rug from sliding and shifting but also increase its lifespan. If you notice creases on the rug when you unpack it, roll it in the opposite direction and use your hands to massage the visible creases. This will help flatten the rug more quickly. Remember, this rug is for home use only and not for commercial purposes. Also, it doesn't require any assembly, so you can start enjoying it right away.
