Be sure to clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean, white dry sponge or cloth. We highly recommend using a rug pad (see ours here!) on all surfaces to prevent slipping, add cushion, and improve durability. Please know that the color of The Rug may transfer and should not be placed directly over any existing carpet. Professional cleaning is recommended for tougher spills or stains. For vacuuming, use a vacuum cleaner without a beater bar or one where you can set the bar to the highest pile setting. If your vacuum has variable power settings, set it on low. Vacuum the full length of The Rug, turn and repeat to the next area, rather than the age-old back and forth motion. The Rug is NOT machine washable.
