Cleona White 8' x 10' Rug

While white rugs require more frequent visual care, the synthetic construction of this particular rug makes it more family-friendly than traditional wool. Polypropylene is inherently fade-resistant and does not trap allergens as easily as some natural fibers. Based on our material expertise, we recommend treating spills immediately by blotting with a mild detergent and cool water. The thick, lush pile also provides a posh, cushioned surface that is ideal for children’s play areas or cozying up in a casual living space.

Because this rug is power-loomed with durable synthetic yarns rather than hand-tufted, it is naturally low-shedding from day one. To prevent the high-pile from matting in areas with consistent foot traffic, our care guide suggests rotating the rug every six months to distribute wear evenly. If the fibers begin to look flat, a quick refresh with a rug rake or a vacuuming session will revive the flowing dimension of the pile.

To maintain the lush, thick pile of this rug, we recommend vacuuming at least once a week using a vacuum cleaner with the beater bar turned off or set to the highest pile height setting. This prevents the long shag fibers from becoming tangled or pulled by the vacuum’s brush. For deeper maintenance, the power-loomed synthetic yarns are highly resilient, allowing you to use a handheld upholstery attachment or a rug rake to lift the fibers and restore the rug's signature "west coast" airy dimension.

Yes, this rug is power-loomed from 100% polypropylene, a high-performance synthetic fiber favored in the furniture industry for its exceptional durability and natural resistance to staining. Unlike natural fibers that can absorb spills, polypropylene yarns repel moisture, making it much easier to spot-clean everyday messes. This construction ensures the rug stays bright and beautiful year after year, even in busy households.

The 8' x 10' size is a versatile choice for anchoring larger living rooms and master bedrooms. In a living area, this scale typically allows the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs to rest on the rug, creating a cohesive "conversation zone." For a bedroom, an 8' x 10' rug is the standard recommendation for a king-sized bed, as it can be placed under the lower two-thirds of the frame to provide a soft landing on both sides. If you are decorating a smaller nursery or a narrow walkway, you may want to consider the 5' x 8' or runner variations.

The Cleona shag rug is designed to bring a "softening balance" to contemporary interiors. In rooms with modern, clean-lined furniture, the high-texture pile adds a layer of luxurious dimension that breaks up sharp angles and hard surfaces. In minimalist or "west coast casual" decors, a solid white rug acts as a bright, sophisticated foundation that makes the entire space feel more expansive and grounded.
