FAQs
Is the Chester Shaggy Rug suitable for homes with pets?
Yes, the rug's durable polypropylene and polyester blend makes it resistant to wear, and its ease of maintenance helps manage pet hair. Regular vacuuming is recommended.
Can I use this rug in my bathroom or outdoor patio?
No, the Chester Shaggy Rug is designed exclusively for indoor use. It is not suitable for damp environments like bathrooms or for outdoor patios.
How do I remove a spill from the rug?
Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Avoid rubbing. For more stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution applied with a cloth, then blot dry.
Will the rug shed a lot?
Some initial shedding is normal for shaggy rugs. This will typically decrease over time with regular, gentle vacuuming. Do not use a beater bar on your vacuum.
What is the pile height of this rug?
The Chester Shaggy Rug features a generous 30mm deep plush pile, providing exceptional softness and comfort underfoot.
Do I need a rug pad for this rug?
While the jute backing provides some structure, a non-slip rug pad is highly recommended, especially on hard floors. It helps prevent slipping, adds extra cushioning, and can extend the life of your rug.
What materials is the rug made from?
The rug is constructed from a blend of 75% polypropylene and 25% polyester, with a durable jute backing for stability and structure.
Troubleshooting
Rug won't lie completely flat after unrolling
Reverse roll the rug tightly in the opposite direction, then re-unroll it. Alternatively, place heavy, flat objects on the curled corners or edges for 24-48 hours. The rug will typically flatten over time.
Initial shedding or loose fibers
Some shedding is normal for new shaggy rugs. Gently vacuum the rug regularly on a low-suction setting without a beater bar. This will help remove loose fibers, and shedding will decrease over time.
Stain or spill on the rug
Act quickly! Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Do not rub. For tougher stains, mix a small amount of mild liquid dish soap with cool water, apply to a clean cloth, and gently dab the stained area. Blot dry thoroughly with another clean cloth.
Rug is slipping on a hard floor
Ensure the floor beneath the rug is clean and dry. For optimal stability and to prevent movement, use a high-quality non-slip rug pad underneath the Chester Shaggy Rug, especially on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile.
Matted or flattened pile in high-traffic areas
Gently rake or brush the pile with your fingers or a soft-bristled brush to fluff it up. Regular, gentle vacuuming can also help maintain the pile's texture. Rotating the rug periodically will also distribute wear more evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unroll the Rug: Carefully unroll your Chester Shaggy Rug in its desired location.
- Allow to Settle: New rugs may have temporary creases or curled edges from packaging. Reverse roll the rug gently or place heavy objects (like books) on the corners for 24-48 hours to help it flatten.
- Optimal Placement: For hard floor surfaces, consider using a non-slip rug pad underneath. This prevents the rug from sliding and adds an extra layer of cushioning.
Compatibility
- Indoor Use Only: This rug is specifically designed and tested for indoor environments. Do not use it outdoors or in areas exposed to moisture.
- Ideal Rooms: Perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, dens, and chill-out zones. Its durability also makes it suitable for high-traffic areas like hallways.
- Aesthetic Match: The checkered pattern and varied color options (this variant is Beige) are best suited for modern and contemporary home decor styles, but can also complement transitional spaces.
Care
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly with a suction-only vacuum cleaner on a low setting. Avoid using a beater bar, which can damage the pile. This helps remove loose dirt and debris.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain. For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water. Apply to a clean cloth, dab the stain gently, then blot dry.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the rug's fibers and color.
- Rotate Periodically: To ensure even wear and exposure to light, rotate your rug every few months, especially in high-traffic areas.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning or stubborn stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended. Info needed: Consult a rug cleaning specialist for best practices with polypropylene/polyester blends.
