FAQs
Is Oriental Weavers Sumter SUM05 Ivory/Rust Red Area Rug - 3'6" x 5'6" good for busy rooms?
Yes. Its machine made construction and 100% polyester material make it suitable for everyday spaces when cared for properly.
How should I style this rectangle rug?
Use it with neutral rugs, colorful rugs, or classic rugs nearby depending on the palette of the room; the ivory base makes the placement easy to coordinate.
Cleaning/Installation: If spills occur, blot as much of the stain as possible with a clean cloth. Do not use heavy duty vacuum with a beater bar/brush. In 2.2 cu ft washer*, machine wash separately in cold water using mild, non-bleach detergent, and design facing out. Dry on low heat or hang to dry. Do not use fabric softener. * For 5’x7’ and smaller use a 2.2 cu ft washer. For 7’6”x10’ and larger use a 3.8 cu ft washer. Initial creasing is normal, and these will generally fall out within a few days to a week; tightly reversing rolling the rug (pile side out) and leaving in warm area for several hours will aid in the removal of creases or lingering fold marks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please check the product description above for the specific construction method. RugKnots carries both hand-knotted and machine-made Oriental and Persian rugs. Hand-knotted rugs are made by skilled artisans and typically have a higher knot count and longer lifespan. Machine-made rugs offer the same traditional patterns at a more accessible price point.
Quality indicators for Oriental rugs include knot count (higher is better for hand-knotted), fiber content (wool and silk are premium), pile height, and the clarity of the pattern. All RugKnots rugs are sourced directly from trusted weavers and importers — we have been buying rugs since 1987 and stand behind every piece we sell.
Vacuum regularly on a low setting without a beater bar. Rotate the rug every 6–12 months to ensure even wear. For spills, blot immediately with a clean cloth — do not rub. Professional cleaning is recommended every 2–3 years. Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, or use a UV-protective window treatment.
The most common rule is to leave 18–24 inches of bare floor around the rug in a living room. For a seating area, all front legs of the furniture should sit on the rug. In a bedroom, an 8×10 or 9×12 rug typically works under a queen or king bed with enough coverage on the sides. Not sure? Email us at [email protected] and we will help you choose the right size.
Yes — a rug pad is strongly recommended for safety and longevity. A pad prevents the rug from slipping on hard floors, protects your floor from scratches, adds cushioning underfoot, and helps the rug lay flat. It also extends the life of the rug by reducing wear from friction. We recommend a non-slip felt or rubber pad cut 1 inch smaller than your rug on all sides.
We offer free 30-day returns on all orders. If you are not completely satisfied, contact us at [email protected] within 30 days of delivery to initiate a return. Items must be in original, unused condition. We will arrange free pickup and issue a full refund — no restocking fees, no hassle.
