FAQs
Can this rug be used in a hallway?
Yes, the Ainsley rug is durable enough for hallways, provided you ensure it is secured with a rug pad to prevent slipping.
Is this rug suitable for households with pets?
While the rug is durable, pets with sharp claws may snag the long shaggy fibers. It is best suited for low-pet-traffic areas.
Can I machine wash this rug?
No, machine washing can damage the jute backing and the construction of the pile. Spot cleaning or professional cleaning is recommended.
Does the rug require a non-slip pad?
While not strictly required, a non-slip pad is highly recommended to improve safety and keep the rug firmly in place.
Is the rug color consistent?
The plain finish is designed for consistency; however, lighting conditions in your room may slightly alter the appearance of the color from different angles.
Troubleshooting
Rug edges won't lay flat after unrolling
Back-roll the affected area and secure with heavy books for 24 hours, or use a rug gripper to hold the corners down.
Pile is starting to look matted
Gently shake the rug outside to fluff the fibers or use a vacuum with a specialized upholstery attachment without a rotating brush.
Shedding fibers found on the floor
Minor shedding is normal for new shaggy rugs; regular vacuuming with the suction setting will remove loose fibers and subside over time.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-density 40mm pile for superior softness
- Sturdy construction suitable for high-traffic areas

- Durable jute backing ensures long-term shape retention
Cons
- Shaggy pile can trap dust more easily than flat weaves
- Requires regular shaking or professional cleaning to maintain fluffiness
- Not recommended for high-moisture environments
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Upon unrolling your rug, you may notice some curling at the edges due to packaging. Lay the rug flat in a clean, open area and place heavy objects like books on the corners for 24–48 hours to allow the fibers to settle and the rug to lay completely flat.
Compatibility: This rug works well on most indoor flooring surfaces. If using on smooth surfaces like tile or polished wood, a rug pad is recommended to prevent sliding and add extra cushioning.
Care: To preserve the 40mm pile, vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting; avoid beater bars that can snag and pull the fibers. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth—do not rub. For deep cleaning, it is advised to seek professional rug cleaning services to protect the jute backing.
