Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this door stopper machine washable?
No, because it is weighted with sand, it should not be machine washed or submerged in water.
Can it be used outdoors?
This product is designed for indoor use. Outdoor conditions may damage the fabric and lead to moisture issues with the internal weight.
Will it scratch my hardwood floors?
No, the soft fabric base is specifically designed to be gentle on delicate flooring materials like hardwood or laminate.
How much does the door stopper weigh?
It contains enough sand to provide the necessary weight to keep standard interior doors stable; however, exact weight may vary slightly by production unit.
Can a child or pet play with it?
While it is a fun design, it is a door stopper, not a toy. Ensure pets or small children do not tear the fabric, which could lead to sand leakage.
Troubleshooting
Door stopper slips on smooth flooring
Place a small piece of non-slip rug grip or rubber matting underneath the base to increase friction.
Stains on the fabric surface
Use a soft sponge with cold water and a drop of delicate detergent, dabbing carefully until the stain lifts.
Product feels lighter than expected
Ensure the sand is evenly distributed by gently shaking or patting the base of the character to settle the contents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is instantaneous; simply remove the product from packaging and place it at the desired position along the base of the door. The unit is compatible with most standard residential door heights and floor gaps.
Care instructions are straightforward but critical for product longevity:
- Spot Cleaning: Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently dab any surface stains. Do not submerge in water.
- Avoid Moisture: Ensure the area of use is dry to prevent the internal sand or fabric from becoming damp and developing odors.
- Regular Dusting: A quick wipe or vacuum with a brush attachment once a month will keep the fabric looking fresh.
