To use your Montauk cotton flat weave rug, simply place it in your desired area. It's great for living rooms, bedrooms, or even entryways to add a coastal or contemporary vibe. When it comes to cleaning, use a vacuum cleaner regularly to keep it free of dust and debris. For spills, blot them immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the cotton fibers. If you need to wash the rug, it's best to take it to a professional cleaner. Store the rug in a dry, cool place if you're not using it for a long time to prevent mold and mildew growth.
