Safavieh Sumak Floor Decor sku-47219743 683726214922

Safavieh's Sumak rug collection is listed as Floor Decor and is available in multiple sizes. A rug pad is recommended to reduce shifting and sliding. For indoor rugs, vacuum regularly with a canister vacuum, preferably without beater bars, and clean high-traffic areas more often. Avoid vacuuming fringes.

Blot spills promptly without rubbing; for stains, apply the foam from a mixture of water, white vinegar and mild detergent, then blot away residue. Professional cleaning is recommended for stubborn stains. Viscose, a cellulose-derived fiber sometimes called art silk, blends with other fibers and takes dye well but is highly absorbent.

For a 100 percent viscose rug, use a carpet sweeper or a vacuum on low power with the beater bars disengaged or raised. Clean stains with a damp cloth and mild cleanser; a small amount of fabric softener on the stained area can help preserve softness. New wool rugs shed.

A rug pad can reduce friction, and vacuuming 1-2 times a week for the first few weeks, with low suction and no beater bars, can reduce shedding. Vacuum with the pile. Shedding generally diminishes within 4-6 months. Clip loose ends or stray loops with scissors rather than pulling them. Shipping creases usually settle; reverse rolling can help.

Use protectors beneath heavy furniture, and shade the rug from direct sunlight to limit fading. For indoor-outdoor rugs, follow the material-specific label instructions. Sweep or vacuum frequently, blot spills without rubbing, and sponge stains with a little cold water. For periodic cleaning, sweep, vacuum and rinse with a garden hose, then dry both sides over a railing in sunlight.
