Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unroll and Place: Carefully unroll your Buddy Runner in the desired location.
- Ensure Flatness: Allow some time for any creases from packaging to settle and flatten out. Walking on it or placing books on stubborn spots can help.
- Secure on Smooth Surfaces: For optimal safety on smooth floors (e.g., hardwood, laminate, tile), we highly recommend using a separate `Rug Grip Hold` underneath the runner to prevent any movement. This will significantly enhance the non-slip performance.
Compatibility
The Buddy Runner is designed for any location in the home, thanks to its durable, washable, and mould-resistant properties. It is particularly well-suited for:
- Hallways and entryways
- Kitchens
- Utility rooms
- Children's play areas
- Pet zones
Its wide range of available colors and sizes (60 x 100 cm, 80 x 120 cm) ensures compatibility with various interior styles and spatial requirements.
Care
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum regularly to remove loose dirt and maintain the shaggy pile's appearance. Use a suction-only setting or a high pile setting on your vacuum to avoid damaging the fibers.
- Machine Washing: For deeper cleaning or significant spills, the runner is easily washed at 30C (do not exceed 40C). Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not bleach.
- Drying: Line dry or lay flat to dry. Avoid tumble drying to protect the non-slip backing and pile integrity. Ensure it is completely dry before placing it back on your floor.
- Stain Treatment: For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. The stain-resistant material will make most spills easy to clean before washing.
