Using this rug is a breeze. You can place it indoors on your hardwood or tile floors to spruce up your living room, bedroom, or any other space. Outdoors, it's great for patios or decks. Since it's UV - treated, it can withstand some sunlight exposure. No assembly is needed, so you can just unroll it and start using it right away. When it comes to maintenance, vacuum it regularly to keep it clean. For stains, spot - clean with a mild detergent and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the polypropylene material. Also, make sure to keep it dry if it gets wet to prevent mold or mildew growth.
