Daylee Light Gray 8' x 10' Rug

For a standard living room layout, an 8' x 10' rug is ideal for anchoring a seating area. Our design experts recommend placing the rug so that at least the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs rest on it. This creates a unified "zone" and prevents the furniture from looking like it is floating. In a bedroom, this size is perfect for placing under the lower two-thirds of a queen or king-size bed to provide a soft, stylish landing on both sides.

Yes, polypropylene is a premier choice for active households. This rug is power-loomed in Turkey using enhanced yarns designed for maximum durability. Because the fibers are synthetic and non-absorbent, they are naturally resistant to staining, fading, and moisture. This makes the material exceptionally resilient against the daily wear and tear of pets, children, and heavy foot traffic while maintaining its antique, over-dyed aesthetic.

Polypropylene is an excellent material for humid or damp environments. Unlike natural fibers like wool or jute, which can trap moisture, synthetic polypropylene is mold and mildew resistant. This makes it a reliable choice for homes in coastal regions or for use in transitional spaces like mudrooms and enclosed sunrooms where humidity levels may fluctuate.

Absolutely. A large 8' x 10' rug acts as an effective sound dampener by absorbing vibrations and muffling the sound of footsteps. For urban apartment living, pairing this rug with a dense rug pad can significantly improve the acoustics of your room and reduce noise transfer to neighbors below, making your living space feel quieter and more private.

To ensure safety and preserve the rug's shape, we strongly recommend the use of a high-quality non-skid rug pad. A pad provides essential grip on smooth surfaces, preventing the rug from shifting or bunching. Additionally, a pad adds a layer of cushioning that protects both the rug’s backing and your flooring, while helping to keep the corners laid flat over time.

Based on our expertise with performance materials, we recommend vacuuming regularly to prevent grit from settling into the fibers. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For deeper maintenance, polypropylene can be spot-cleaned with a mild detergent or steam-cleaned as needed. Always refer to the specific care tag for the best results, and avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the intricate Oriental motifs.
