Using this Sansa Heritage machine-washable rug is easy. Just place it in the area you want to protect, like a high-traffic living room or a playroom. When it gets dirty, you can machine wash it in cold water. But remember, don't use bleach as it might damage the rug. After washing, you can either line dry it or use an air-only drying cycle in the dryer. If there are some wrinkles, you can use a low heat iron to smooth them out. Keep in mind that the actual colour of the rug may vary from what you see online. This rug is great for families with kids and pets because it's spill- and stain-resistant, and it's made from sustainable materials, so you can feel good about using it.
