Cleona Navy 3' x 5' Rug

No, one of the primary benefits of this power-loomed synthetic rug is its exceptional resistance to shedding. Unlike traditional wool shag, these polypropylene yarns are engineered to stay securely in the backing. This makes it an ideal choice for modern apartment living, providing the luxurious aesthetic of a shag rug without the high maintenance of loose fibers.

To maintain the lush, thick pile of this rug, we recommend using a vacuum with the beater bar turned off or utilizing a dedicated high-pile setting. Because this rug is power-loomed with durable synthetic polypropylene, regular vacuuming is essential to prevent dirt from settling deep into the fibers, which can lead to premature matting. For occasional deep cleaning, our expert care guides recommend spot-cleaning with a mild detergent and cool water.

This rug is a great option for pet owners because polypropylene is a performance material that is naturally stain-resistant and does not absorb moisture or odors as readily as natural fibers. While the deep pile can trap pet hair, it is easily managed with regular vacuuming using a suction-only attachment. The durable power-loomed construction is also rugged enough to withstand the daily activity of cats and dogs.

While this rug is crafted from highly durable, stain-resistant polypropylene, the deep shag pile is best utilized in lower-traffic zones where comfort is the priority, such as a bedside or a cozy reading nook. In a high-traffic entryway, long shag fibers may be more prone to flattening over time; however, the solid navy color is excellent at naturally disguising light soil between cleanings.

To preserve the relaxed texture and flowing dimension of the rug, we recommend rotating it every few months to ensure even wear across the surface. If you notice the fibers beginning to flatten in specific spots, you can easily re-fluff them by hand or with a rug rake. These synthetic yarns are inherently resilient and are designed to spring back and stay beautiful year after year.

The synthetic yarns used in this rug are specifically engineered for superior colorfastness. Polypropylene is highly resistant to UV fading, ensuring that the rich navy palette remains vibrant even in rooms with significant sun exposure. This makes it a reliable choice for brightening up sun-drenched spaces without the worry of the color losing its intensity over time.
