Using your new area rug is a breeze. Simply place it on your hardwood or tile floor in the desired location. For safety, it's a good idea to use a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and protect your floors. There's no need for assembly, so you can enjoy it right away. When it comes to maintenance, vacuum regularly to keep it clean. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods to maintain its vibrant colors as it's fade - resistant but still best to take precautions. Spot clean any stains as soon as they occur using a mild detergent and water. With proper care, your rug will look great for years to come.
