[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]YES, this belongs in General Parenting, because the only reason I'd be asking about the stain- and cleanability of sisal rugs is because I got me two kids!  :)

So I'm considering sisal for our family room.  But let's get real: I got kids, and kids spill stuff.  All kinds of stuff.

Is sisal easy to clean?  Can I put Oxyclean on it and have everything magically disappear?  If not, fuggedaboudit.

Right now I've got a crazy-patterened wool, hand-knotted oriental carpet which hides stains very, very well and cleans up easily. But it's kind of old-fashioned red-and-blue, and I'd like something a bit more modern, 9X11 or bigger, to lighten up the space.

The Pottery Barn admonition to wipe up spills "immediately" with a white cloth and periodically professional clean sets off alarm bells!  :)

I have several huge water stains on my sisal rug that has been there a long time. How can I get the stains out?
