FAQs

How do I clean my Buddy Rug?

Your Buddy Rug is machine washable at 40C. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach. After washing, reshape the rug and allow it to air dry completely before placing it back on the floor. Regular vacuuming is also recommended.

Is the non-slip backing truly effective?

Yes, the Buddy Rug features an advanced grade non-slip rubber backing designed for enhanced security and stability. For best results, ensure the floor surface is clean and dry before placement.

What type of stains does the rug resist?

The rug is stain resistant to many common household stains including tea, coffee, wine, fake tan, washable felt tip pens, and non-oil based make-up. Prompt action on spills will maximize removal success.

Will the colour fade over time or after washing?

No, the Buddy Rug is made with colour fast and fade resistant materials, ensuring its vibrant colour and appearance are maintained even after multiple washes and prolonged use.

Is this rug suitable for homes with pets or children?

Absolutely. Its anti-shedding, mould and microbe resistant, stain resistant, and non-slip features make it an excellent choice for busy households with pets and children, offering both safety and hygiene.

What is the rug made of?

The Buddy Rug is made from 100% Polypropylene, known for its durability, stain resistance, and ease of care. It features extra strong fibres for long-lasting performance.

Where is the Buddy Rug designed and manufactured?

The Buddy Rug is proudly designed and manufactured in Britain.

Troubleshooting

Rug appears to shift or move slightly on the floor.

Ensure the floor beneath the rug is completely clean, dry, and free of dust or debris. Even small particles can reduce the effectiveness of the non-slip backing. Re-position the rug after cleaning the floor.

A specific stain did not completely come out after machine washing.

For stubborn stains, pre-treat the affected area with a mild stain remover suitable for polypropylene before machine washing at 40C. Always test the stain remover on an inconspicuous area first. Prompt treatment of spills is key to successful removal.

The rug's pile looks flattened or matted in high-traffic areas.

Regularly vacuum the rug to lift dirt and fibers. For matted areas, gently brush the pile with a soft-bristled brush or a rug rake to help restore its original fluffiness. Rotate the rug periodically to even out wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Enhanced safety due to advanced non-slip rubber backing.
Exceptional ease of cleaning with machine washability and stain resistance.
Hygienic properties from mould and microbe resistant technology.
Highly durable and long-lasting thanks to strong fibers and whipped edges.
Maintains aesthetic appeal with colour fast, fade resistant, and anti-shedding features.
Versatile design suitable for any room in the home.

Cons

Long pile may require more frequent or thorough vacuuming.
Specific wash temperature (40C) must be adhered to for optimal care.
While highly stain resistant, not all stain types (e.g., oil-based) are covered.
Synthetic (Polypropylene) material may not appeal to those preferring natural fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Unpack: Carefully unroll the Buddy Rug in your desired location.
Position: Place the rug on a clean, dry, and level floor surface. Ensure there are no debris or liquids underneath that could compromise the non-slip backing's effectiveness.
Flatten: If the rug has temporary creases from packaging, they will typically relax within 24-48 hours. You can speed this up by reverse rolling the rug or placing heavy objects on the corners.

Compatibility

The Buddy Rug is designed to be highly versatile and suitable for any location in the home, including living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, and playrooms. Its wide range of colours and sizes ensures it can complement various interior designs and room dimensions. The non-slip backing makes it safe for use on most hard flooring surfaces like wood, laminate, tile, and vinyl.

Care Instructions

Regular Cleaning: Vacuum regularly using a low-power setting or a hard floor attachment to remove loose dirt and debris. Avoid using beater bars on the long pile to prevent damage.
Machine Washing: For deeper cleaning or set-in stains, the rug is machine washable at 40C. Use a mild detergent. Do not bleach. After washing, reshape and lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Ensure the rug is completely dry before placing it back on the floor.
Stain Treatment: For spills, act quickly. Blot liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth. For solid stains, gently scrape off excess before blotting. The rug's stain resistance is effective against many common stains; however, immediate action improves removal success. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Maintenance: The rug's anti-shedding and fade-resistant properties ensure long-term durability. Regular rotation can help distribute wear evenly, especially in high-traffic areas.
