FAQs
What type of vacuum cleaner should I use on this wool rug?
For wool rugs, it is recommended to use a vacuum cleaner with suction only, or ensure the beater bar can be turned off. This prevents damage to the wool fibers.
Is this rug suitable for a high-traffic area?
The rug is made of durable wool and has a significant weight (3214 GSM), making it suitable for moderate to high-traffic areas. However, the 10mm pile height might be more prone to crushing in extremely high-traffic zones compared to lower-pile rugs.
How do I maintain the green color of the rug?
To maintain the color, avoid placing the rug in direct, prolonged sunlight, which can cause fading. Regular vacuuming and prompt cleaning of spills will also help preserve its appearance.
Can this rug be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
While the rug is easy to clean, it is primarily designed for living areas, hallways, and bedrooms. Its wool material may not be ideal for very damp environments like bathrooms or kitchens where moisture absorption could be an issue.
What does 'GSM' mean in relation to rugs?
GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter. A higher GSM, like 3214 for this rug, indicates a denser and heavier rug, which generally translates to better quality, durability, and a plusher feel.
Are there other sizes or colors available for the Melrose Carter rug?
The product information provided focuses on the 'Melrose Carter Green Wool Rug - 60 x 230 cm'. It's possible other sizes and colors exist, but this guide pertains specifically to this variant. You may need to check with the retailer for alternative options.
Troubleshooting
Rug won't lie flat or has persistent creases.
Ensure the rug has had adequate time to settle (48 hours). Try gently rolling the rug in the opposite direction of the creases for a few hours. Using a rug pad can also help flatten the rug.
Color appears different from online images.
Screen color reproduction varies. If the color is significantly different than expected, contact customer support to discuss options. Keep the original packaging if a return is considered.
Shedding of fibers.
Some initial shedding is normal for new wool rugs. Regular vacuuming (without the beater bar) will help manage this over the first few weeks. If excessive shedding persists, contact customer support.
Spill or stain on the rug.
Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For remaining stains, use a mild soap and water solution, blotting gently. Avoid harsh chemicals. Professional cleaning may be necessary for stubborn stains.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unroll the rug completely and allow it to lie flat for at least 24-48 hours to let it settle and remove any creases from packaging. Ensure the surface underneath is clean and dry.
Compatibility: This rug is suitable for most indoor floor types. For hard floors like wood or tile, consider using a non-slip rug pad to prevent shifting and provide extra cushioning. It is generally compatible with most standard furniture placement.
Care:
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum weekly without the beater bar engaged to remove surface dust and debris. For wool rugs, a suction-only attachment is recommended.
- Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain. For tougher spots, use a mild detergent mixed with water and blot gently.
- Professional Cleaning: For deep cleaning or significant stains, professional rug cleaning is advised to preserve the wool fibers and construction.
