Using this rug is easy. Just place it on the floor in your desired room. For safety, it's a good idea to use a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and protect your floors. Since it's stain - resistant, you don't have to worry too much about spills. But if something does spill, quickly blot it with a clean cloth. To keep it looking its best, vacuum it regularly. This will help remove dirt and debris. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods as although it's fade - resistant, too much sun can still affect the colors over time. There's no need for any assembly, so you can start enjoying it right away. Remember, this rug is for home use only, not for commercial settings.
