It measures approximately 33cm in length, 12cm in width, and 19cm in height.

Troubleshooting
Doorstop slides on smooth floors
Ensure the floor surface is clean and free of debris, or consider placing a thin piece of anti-slip rubber matting underneath.
Door continues to close
The door may be too heavy for the 1kg weight; try wedging the tail part of the whale slightly further under the door gap for a tighter fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the doorstop is straightforward: simply place it at the desired angle against your door when it is in the open position. It is compatible with most standard residential door heights and floor types. To maintain the appearance of the product, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the fabric. If it becomes dusty, use a soft, dry brush or a lint roller to gently clean the surface. If a spot cleaning is required, use a damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring it is thoroughly air-dried before placing it back on your flooring.
