Medrick Black 5' x 8' Rug

To preserve the integrity of the ultra-soft fibers, we recommend vacuuming regularly using a straight suction vacuum only. Avoid using a beater bar or rotary brush, as these can be too aggressive for thin-pile construction. For localized spills, spot clean with water and a mild detergent. For general freshening, the rug can also be shaken out to remove surface dust.

While the floral pattern is traditional, the black, gold, and gray color palette offers significant modern appeal. You can create a sophisticated, high-contrast look by pairing this rug with light-colored seating or sleek metallic accents. Based on our styling principles, incorporating gold-finished floor lamps or gray textured throw pillows can pull the accent colors from the rug into the rest of the room for a cohesive, professional design.

Yes, 100% polyester is an excellent choice for high-traffic homes. This synthetic fiber is naturally resistant to stains and moisture, making it much easier to maintain than many natural fibers. This rug also features an ultra-thin pile, which prevents pet hair and debris from becoming deeply embedded in the fibers, allowing for quicker and more effective cleaning.

Selecting the correct scale is essential for anchoring your room's layout. For a living room, a 5' x 8' rug is ideal for smaller seating areas where you can place the front legs of your sofa and chairs on the rug to create a unified look. If you are placing a rug under a dining table, our expertise suggests choosing a size that extends at least 24 inches beyond the table's edge—like an 8' x 10' or 8' round option—to ensure chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out.

This rug is manufactured with a built-in non-skid backing, providing immediate stability and safety on hard floor surfaces like hardwood, tile, or laminate. This integrated feature helps the rug stay securely in place without the need for an additional rug pad, though you may still choose to add one if you desire extra cushioning underfoot.

This rug is specifically designed for versatility, featuring UV stabilization that protects the colors from fading in sunlit areas. It is suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor spaces. Because polyester is inherently resistant to mold and mildew, it is an ideal floor covering for humid coastal environments or sunrooms where moisture levels may fluctuate.
