Cleona Maroon 3' x 5' Rug

This rug is power-loomed using durable polypropylene, a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional resilience and moisture resistance. While shag rugs are best suited for low-to-medium traffic areas like bedrooms or nurseries to preserve their "re-fluffable" texture, the synthetic construction of this piece makes it much easier to maintain than a natural fiber alternative. It is an ideal choice for softening the modern, clean lines of furniture in a relaxed, "west coast" styled home.

Absolutely. Layering a shag rug over carpet is a popular design technique to add a "flowing dimension" and a pop of color, like this rich maroon, to a neutral room. To prevent the rug from shifting or buckling on top of the carpet, we recommend using a specialized rug-to-carpet pad, which will provide extra stability and protect both your new rug and the underlying flooring.

To maintain the lush texture of this shag rug, we recommend vacuuming at least once a week using a suction-only setting. It is best to avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar or rotating brush, as these can pull at the thick pile and cause premature wear. For a deeper clean in high-traffic households, you can use a rug rake or an upholstery attachment to gently lift dirt from the base of the synthetic yarns.

Yes, the 3' x 5' dimensions are perfectly scaled for urban apartment living. This size is particularly effective as a bedside landing, a plush accent in a home office nook, or a way to define a small entryway. Because it is available in a wide variety of colors—from neutral mushroom and taupe to vibrant turquoise and maroon—it can easily serve as a foundational piece that grounds smaller rooms without overwhelming the space.

Thanks to the stain-resistant properties of polypropylene, most spills can be handled with simple spot cleaning. Our experts recommend blotting (never rubbing) the spill immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If a stain persists, use a mixture of mild detergent and cool water to gently clean the area. Because the "Cleona" is power-loomed with durable yarns, it is designed to stay bright and beautiful year after year, even in homes with occasional messes.

One of the primary benefits of this synthetic shag rug is its low-shedding nature. Unlike natural wool rugs, which often go through a heavy shedding phase, these power-loomed synthetic yarns are engineered to stay intact. This makes it an excellent option for allergy-sensitive households or for those who want the posh look of a thick pile without the constant maintenance of loose fibers.
