Bradden Blue/Midnight 7'9 x 10' Rug

It is normal for high-quality power-woven rugs to shed some loose fibers when they are first placed in a home. This is not a defect but a natural part of the settling process. Frequent vacuuming during the first few weeks of ownership will effectively remove these excess fibers. You will notice that the shedding diminishes significantly as the rug is broken in through regular wear and proper maintenance.

This rug is highly suitable for families and pet owners. The low 0.45" pile height and dense power-woven construction make it significantly less likely to snag on pet claws than high-pile or shag alternatives. Furthermore, the use of shrink yarn creates a subtle, organic texture that helps camouflage minor wear and pet hair, while the super-soft pile provides a safe and comfortable surface for children to play.

A 7'9" x 10' rug is an "estate size" floor covering designed to anchor substantial spaces. In a living room, it is the ideal scale to ensure that at least the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs rest on the rug, which follows the professional "18-inch rule"—leaving a balanced border of bare floor between the rug's edge and the walls. For bedrooms, this size fits perfectly under a queen or king bed, extending significantly on both sides to provide a soft, comfortable landing for your feet.

In an urban apartment with hard flooring, a large area rug serves as a critical acoustic buffer. The dense pile and cotton foundation work together to absorb sound and reduce echoes, which is essential for shared-wall living. Beyond noise reduction, its generous 7'9" x 10' dimensions help define a specific "zone" in an open-concept layout, making a multifunctional room feel more organized and expansive.

While wool is a traditional choice, synthetic blends like the super-soft polypropylene and polyester used in this rug are engineered specifically for modern durability. Unlike natural fibers that can absorb moisture and stains, these synthetic materials are inherently stain-resistant and moisture-wicking. This makes them a superior choice for high-traffic zones or humid climates where natural fibers might be prone to mold or mildew.

To preserve the integrity of the power-woven fibers, our care guidelines recommend regular vacuuming with the height gauge set to its highest setting. This prevents powerful vacuum suctions from potentially damaging the pile, bound edges, or the delicate incorporated fringe. For spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Based on our material expertise, we recommend avoiding harsh chemicals; instead, spot-clean with a mild detergent and cool water for best results.
