FAQs

What sizes is the Buddy Rug available in?

The Buddy Rug is available in various sizes including 60 x 100 cm (23 x 39 in), 80 x 120 cm (31¼ x 47 in), 140 x 200 cm (55 x 78¾ in), and a circular option of approximately 100 cm (39 in).

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

Absolutely! The Buddy Rug's hard-wearing 100% polypropylene material, exceptional stain resistance, and machine washable design make it ideal for busy households with pets and children. Spills and messes are much easier to manage.

How do I machine wash the Buddy Rug?

You can machine wash the Buddy Rug at 40°C (104°F) using a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. After washing, reshape the rug and allow it to air dry completely; avoid tumble drying.

What kind of stains is the rug resistant to?

The Buddy Rug is stain resistant to many common stains, including tea, coffee, wine, fake tan, washable felt tip pens, and non-oil based make-up. Prompt cleaning is always recommended for best results.

Where is the Buddy Rug manufactured?

The Buddy Rug collection is 100% designed and manufactured in Britain, and also contains recycled materials.

Does this rug come in other colors?

Yes, the Buddy Rug collection is available in a range of rich, gorgeous colors to suit various interior styles. Please check other product listings for available color options like Grey, Cream, Pink, Beige, Green, and Yellow.

Can I use the Buddy Rug on underfloor heating?

Info needed: While many polypropylene rugs are suitable for underfloor heating, specific confirmation for the Buddy Rug is advised. Generally, as long as the rug allows heat to pass through, it should be fine, but consult manufacturer guidelines for definitive advice.

Troubleshooting

The rug slides too easily on my smooth floor.

This is a common concern on very smooth surfaces. We strongly recommend using a 'Rug Grip Hold' underneath the rug. This specialized grip material provides additional friction and prevents unwanted movement, ensuring safety and stability.

A stubborn stain won't come out after machine washing.

While the Buddy Rug is highly stain resistant, effective cleaning relies on prompt action. Ensure you tackled the stain as quickly as possible. For very tough stains, a pre-treatment designed for polypropylene might help before washing, or a second wash cycle may be necessary. Always check specific stain remover instructions for compatibility with polypropylene.

The rug's shaggy pile looks flattened or less plush.

Over time, especially in high-traffic areas, the pile can compress. Regular vacuuming is key to reviving the 10mm shaggy pile. Use a vacuum with a brush roll set to a higher pile height, or one that allows you to turn off the brush roll to gently lift and separate the fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable and hard-wearing, ideal for busy households.
  • Excellent resistance to a wide range of common stains (tea, coffee, wine, etc.).
  • Effortless cleaning with full machine washability at 40°C.
  • Features a non-slip backing for enhanced safety and stability.
  • Soft, shaggy 10mm pile provides comfort underfoot.
  • Designed and manufactured in Britain using recycled materials.

Cons

  • Requires 'Rug Grip Hold' when placed on very smooth surfaces for optimal security.
  • Material is 100% polypropylene, which may not suit preferences for natural fibers.
  • Limited maximum size (140x200 cm) may not cover very large areas.
  • Info needed: Specific drying instructions not detailed, could require air drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unpack: Carefully unroll your Buddy Rug in the desired location.
  2. Placement: Position the rug to best suit your room's layout. Ensure it lies flat to prevent tripping hazards.
  3. Secure (if needed): For optimal security on very smooth surfaces (e.g., polished wood, tiles), it is *highly recommended* to use a separate 'Rug Grip Hold' underneath. This prevents unwanted movement.

Compatibility

The Buddy Rug is highly versatile and suitable for almost any room in your home, including:

  • Living Rooms
  • Bedrooms
  • Hallways and Entryways
  • Kitchens
  • Children's Playrooms

Its durable and washable nature makes it particularly ideal for high-traffic areas or spaces prone to spills and messes.

Care

  • Regular Cleaning: Vacuum regularly to remove dirt and dust and to help maintain the shaggy pile's loft.
  • Spot Cleaning: For small spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. The stain-resistant properties often allow for easy removal.
  • Machine Washing: For a deeper clean or larger spills, the rug is machine washable at 40°C (104°F). Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
  • Drying: After washing, reshape the rug and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid tumble drying to preserve the non-slip backing and pile integrity.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or strong chemical cleaners, as these can damage the fibers and backing.
  • Fade Resistance: While fade resistant, prolonged direct exposure to intense sunlight can still impact color over many years. Rotate the rug periodically if placed in very sunny spots.
