These brown, discreet cups are ideal for use under sofas, armchairs, and tables, providing a stable base that prevents furniture from sliding or scratching delicate surfaces. While highly effective at safeguarding hardwood, laminate, or vinyl floors, please note that this pack of two is limited in scope and may require multiple sets for larger furniture pieces.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can these be used on carpet?
These cups are primarily designed for hard flooring surfaces like wood, laminate, or tile. They may not provide the same anti-slip benefit on thick carpets.
How many cups are in the package?
This product comes in a pack of two.
Do I need to attach these with glue?
No, these are designed to stay in place via gravity and friction. No adhesive is required for installation.
Will they mark my light-colored floors?
The cups are brown; while they are generally color-fast, we recommend testing one in an inconspicuous area if your floor is prone to staining.
Are these suitable for heavy beds?
Yes, they are designed to handle significant weight, but ensure you have enough cups to support every leg of the bed frame.
Troubleshooting
Furniture still slides on the floor
Ensure the bottom of the cup and the floor surface are clean and completely free of dust or debris that could act as a lubricant.
Cup appears to be warping
Check that the furniture weight is distributed evenly across the cup and not resting on the edge, which can cause uneven pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: ensure the floor surface is clean and free of dust before placing the castor cups under each furniture leg or wheel. Ensure the load is centered within the cup for maximum stability. To maintain the effectiveness of the cups, periodically lift the furniture to remove any debris or dust that may have accumulated inside the cup, as trapped grit can act like sandpaper over time. These cups are compatible with most standard furniture feet and castors found on sofas, chairs, and tables. Avoid using them on loose rugs where the cup might not have a firm grip.
