Effortlessly create a color coordinated, professional design look throughout your home with multi-room placement in various styles. Each pairing of muted colors allows you to mix and match patterns and designs, adding cohesion and interest to every room in your home. While the tan and brown tones echo the serenity and sophistication of nature itself, each offers its own distinct personality and features a soft, textured construction. The Akeno Collection is as easy to keep looking great as it is to coordinate, with a polypropylene pile and cotton backing, its stain-resistant and shed free.

Spot clean stains immediately with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly and blot dry. Rotate for even wear.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Does this rug require frequent vacuuming due to shedding?
No, this rug is specifically engineered to be shed-free. Unlike many natural fiber rugs that can lose fibers and create dust over time, the textured construction of this polypropylene rug ensures a clean, crisp appearance with minimal effort. This makes it an excellent low-maintenance option for busy households.
How do I clean and care for this rug to preserve its texture?
Based on our expertise with textured synthetic fibers, we recommend vacuuming without a beater bar, or using the highest pile setting on low power to avoid distressing the weave. For spills, spot clean immediately with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and blot dry. We also advise rotating the rug periodically to ensure even wear across its surface over time.
Is this rug suitable for a home with pets?
This rug is an excellent choice for pet owners. The shed-free polypropylene pile is more resistant to snags from claws than traditional looped rugs, and its inherent stain-resistant nature simplifies the cleanup of occasional accidents. Additionally, the solid, textured tan palette is very effective at camouflaging pet hair between regular cleanings.
What is the best way to place a 5'5" x 8' rug in a room layout?
A 5'5" x 8' rectangle rug is a versatile size that works beautifully as a foundation for a home office, a small dining area, or a nursery. In a living room, it is the perfect scale for anchoring a seating arrangement where the front legs of your sofa and chairs rest on the rug’s edge, creating a cohesive and professionally designed look.
Is a polypropylene rug durable enough for high-traffic areas like a living room or entryway?
Yes. This rug is crafted with a high-performance polypropylene pile, a material specifically chosen for its exceptional durability and natural resistance to staining. Its stain-resistant properties and resilient fibers make it an ideal choice for active living rooms or high-traffic zones where durability is a primary concern.
Is this rug a good choice for coastal homes or humid climates?
Absolutely. Polypropylene is a synthetic fiber that does not absorb moisture as readily as natural fibers like wool or jute, making it highly resistant to the mold and mildew often associated with humid coastal environments. The breathable cotton backing further enhances its suitability for various climates while providing a stable foundation.
