Tips for cleaning plush all-in-ones?
I’ve had Ruggables for nearly a decade after I found my first one at Jo-Ann’s (RIP). After I bought my first house, I decided to splurge and buy one of the new plush rugs for my living room. I checked the instructions and purposely bought the 5’x7’ size because the website warned that anything larger would require a commercial sized washer. I really like the feel of the rug, but it gets dirty so much more easily! Like I do with my OG two-piece rugs, I spot cleaned it for little things, but given that I have two dogs, I reached the point where it REALLY needed to be washed.
But when I went to put it in my standard top loading washer, it was obvious it wouldn’t fit. I’m not even sure a 3’x5’ would fit! I can easily wash an 8’x10’ two-piece rug in my machine.
Of course, I discovered this a couple of months AFTER the return window. The commercial washers at the one laundromat by me are way more expensive than I realized. Does anyone have any tips? Or do I need to just bite the bullet and take it to a cleaner?
