FAQs

Is the Buddy Rug suitable for homes with pets and children?

Yes, absolutely. The Buddy Rug features an advanced non-slip backing for safety, is anti-shedding, and made with stain and fade resistant material, making it an excellent choice for busy households with pets and children.

How do I machine wash the Buddy Rug?

You can easily wash the Buddy Rug at 40C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. After washing, air dry thoroughly and do not tumble dry. Ensure it's completely dry before placing it back on the floor.

Will the colour of the rug fade over time or after washing?

No, the Buddy Rug is designed with colour fast and fade resistant material. This means its rich black colour will remain vibrant even after multiple washes and prolonged exposure to light.

What is the rug made of?

The Buddy Rug is made from 100% Polypropylene, a synthetic fibre known for its durability, stain resistance, and ease of care. It features a hard-wearing shaggy pile.

Do I need to use a rug grip with this rug?

While the rug has an advanced non-slip rubber backing, for optimal safety and to prevent any movement on very smooth surfaces like hardwood, laminate, or tile, it is recommended to use an additional 'Rug Grip Hold'.

Where is the Buddy Rug manufactured?

The Buddy Rug is proudly Made in the UK, ensuring quality craftsmanship and adherence to manufacturing standards.

Is the rug resistant to mould and microbes?

Yes, the Buddy Rug is enhanced with mould and microbe resistant technology, helping to maintain a cleaner and more hygienic environment in your home.

Troubleshooting

The rug still slides slightly on my smooth floor.

For optimal security on very smooth surfaces like tile or wood, it is highly recommended to use a separate 'Rug Grip Hold' underneath the rug. This additional layer provides extra friction.

My rug has a crease from packaging.

Lay the rug flat in your desired area. Over a few days, the creases should naturally relax and disappear. You can also try reverse rolling the rug gently for a short period before placing it down.

The shaggy pile looks matted or flattened in high-traffic areas.

Regular vacuuming can help lift and refresh the pile. For deeper rejuvenation, a gentle shake or brushing with a soft-bristled brush can restore some of its fluffiness after cleaning.

A stain isn't coming out with a quick wipe.

The rug is machine washable at 40C. For stubborn stains, machine wash the entire rug following the care instructions. Always act on stains quickly for the best results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unroll and Position: Carefully unroll your Buddy Rug - Black in your desired location. Allow some time for any creases from packaging to flatten out naturally.
  2. Ensure Flatness: For optimal safety and appearance, ensure the rug lies completely flat on the floor.
  3. Use a Rug Grip (Recommended): If placing the rug on smooth surfaces such as hardwood, laminate, or tiled floors, it is highly recommended to use a 'Rug Grip Hold' underneath. This will significantly enhance the non-slip properties and prevent the rug from shifting. Place the grip evenly under the rug.

Compatibility

The Buddy Rug is designed for any location in the home, including living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and play areas. Its robust construction and easy-care features make it suitable for various indoor environments.

Care

  • Washing: The rug is easily washed at 40C. Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  • Drying: Air dry thoroughly. Do not tumble dry. Ensure the rug is completely dry before placing it back on the floor.
  • Stain Treatment: Thanks to its stain and fade resistant material, most spills can be blotted immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, follow with a spot clean using a mild soap solution before washing.
  • Regular Maintenance: Vacuum regularly to remove dust and debris, helping to maintain the shaggy pile's appearance and prevent dirt buildup. The rug is anti-shedding, reducing the amount of loose fibres.
