Review on Plush Shaggy Rugs Carpets By PAGISOFE, 4X6 Feet, Soft And Fluffy Area Rug For Living Room Bedroom Nursery Playroom Dorm, Stylish Shag Rug For Teen Room Décor In Grey by Kristen Jain

I purchased this rug a few months ago, and I love it. My kids love it, and my dogs love laying on it. But as those of us with kids and pets know, "shtuff gets dirty”. The #1 question that keeps coming up is "how easy is it to clean?”. The answer is : surprisingly easy. The first time I had to clean the rug, I did it in a bathtub full of cold water and dawn dish soap. Worked really well, but extremely impractical. It took forever to rinse and drip dry took a few days. I won’t even go into the pain in the butt it was trying to wring out the water. A few days later, I had to clean it again because well, kids. Did the tub of water again, but this time, I put it in my High Efficiency washing machine that does NOT HAVE THE CENTER AGITATION ARM, but instead has a round plate with ridges on the bottom. In the spin and drain mode, only the barrel turns, allowing the rug to be drained with no damage. From there, it was hung to dry. Fast forward another week or so, and the pets have debased the carpet as pets only can do. Plus, there is something sticky that I have no idea what it is. As a parent, I get tired of cleaning the same thing over and over again. So, I decided to risk it and see if my HE machine will pull another miracle. I set it to the HAND WASH setting (stops the center plate from agitation, just turns the barrel and the water). I set it to TAP COLD or COLD for water temp, and fed the soap and crossed my fingers. When it was done, It came out looking like a wet ball of fur. I was nervous naturally. I put it in my dryer on AIR FLUFF MODE for temp and crossed my fingers. Since it was air dry, it took a little longer, but it is worth the time. The end result was amazing. The carpet came out looking like it was still brand new and smelled amazing. There was zero damage to the carpet and it lost no fur at all. The lint trap was practically empty. To sum it all up on how to wash your rug1. It must be a High Efficiency (HE) machine without a center arm like you would find in an old school washing machine2. Set temp to TAP COLD or COLD if that’s all you have.3. Set the HE machine to HAND WASH setting. This will stop/reduce the action of the center agitation plate and instead allow the barrel to spin and move the clothes around without causing damage to delicate materials.4. If your dryer is big enough for it to fit, set the temp to AIR FLUFF. You can also hang dry it, as it won’t take near as long since the washing machine got rid of the excess water.As a disclaimer, follow the direction from your manufacturer as not to void warranty’s. If you are a busy parent like me and don’t give much of crap about that and just want it clean without having to go Mid Evil on it hand wash style, use your HE machine like I explained above, and it will be one less thing to worry about. You can get it clean quickly enough for your kids and pets to mess it up again in no time
