1. Product Overview
The IKEA STOENSE rug is designed to enhance your living space with comfort and style. This low-pile rug features a thick, dense construction, providing a soft feel underfoot and contributing to sound dampening in your room. Its surface exhibits a subtle sheen, creating dynamic color variations depending on the light and viewing angle.
The STOENSE rug is suitable for all types of flooring, including those equipped with underfloor heating systems.

2. Setup and Placement
2.1 Unpacking
Upon unrolling the rug, it may appear slightly creased or uneven. Allow approximately 2 days for the rug to fully regain its original shape and flatness.
2.2 Safety Recommendation
For enhanced safety and to prevent the rug from slipping, it is strongly recommended to use a STOPP anti-slip underlay beneath the entire rug. If using a larger STOPP underlay (e.g., 67.5x200 cm), it can be cut or folded to fit the rug's dimensions.

3. Maintenance and Care
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your STOENSE rug.
3.1 General Cleaning
- Vacuuming: Regularly vacuum the rug. To ensure thorough cleaning and prevent matting, vacuum in different directions.
- Important: When vacuuming, never use a rotating brush attachment, as this can damage the rug fibers.
3.2 Stain Removal
- Solid Stains: For solid stains, immediately scrape them off carefully. Always scrape towards the center of the stain to avoid spreading it.
- Liquid Stains: For liquid stains, do not rub. Instead, absorb the liquid using paper towels. After absorbing, wipe the area with a cloth dampened with water and a mild detergent.
3.3 Professional Cleaning
If necessary, professional rug cleaning is recommended for deep cleaning or stubborn stains.
3.4 Prohibited Cleaning Methods

4. Troubleshooting
4.1 Rug Not Lying Flat
If your rolled rug does not lie completely flat after unpacking, allow up to 2 days for it to settle and regain its original shape. Walking on it or placing heavy, flat objects on the edges can help expedite this process.
4.2 Slipping Rug
If the rug tends to slip on your floor, ensure you are using a STOPP anti-slip underlay covering the entire area beneath the rug. This is crucial for safety and stability.
