Troubleshooting
Rug is slipping on hard floors.
This is common. Use a high-quality non-slip rug grip or pad underneath the runner. This will secure it in place and prevent movement, ensuring safety.
There are creases or wrinkles after unrolling.
Lay the runner flat and give it time to settle, typically 24-48 hours. For faster results, you can gently reverse roll the rug or place heavy, flat objects on the creased areas overnight.
Stain on the runner.
Blot the stain immediately with a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild surface shampoo. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. Repeat until the stain is gone, then blot dry.
Runner appears dull or dusty.
Vacuum the runner regularly. For polypropylene rugs, use a vacuum cleaner with a non-beater bar setting or raise the beater bar to avoid damaging the pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting your Homemaker Maestro Runner ready for use is straightforward, and maintaining its quality is simple.
Setup
- Unpack: Carefully unroll the runner from its packaging.
- Lay Flat: Place the runner in your desired location. It may take a short period for any creases from packaging to flatten out. Gently reverse rolling the rug can help expedite this process.
- Consider Rug Grip: For use on hard floors (wood, tile, laminate), it is highly recommended to place a non-slip rug grip underneath. This prevents the runner from slipping and bunching, enhancing safety and extending the rug's life.

Care Instructions
- Spot Cleaning: For spills and stains, do not machine wash. Instead, simply blot the affected area immediately with a clean cloth and a small amount of surface shampoo. Work from the outside of the stain inwards.
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly with a non-beater bar or high-pile setting to remove loose dirt and dust.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong detergents or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the polypropylene fibers and affect the rug's color.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning, consider professional rug cleaning services periodically.
