Care & assembly

Yes, with ease! Our fabric is very durable, and machine washing works great — just unzip the covers from the foam and zip them back up before throwing them in the machine. 

To preserve color, wash on the coldest setting on your machine with only pieces of the same color, and hang dry to prevent shrinking. We recommend using clear-color detergents like All's Free Clear. For the small stuff, you can spot clean with a moist cloth or a carpet/upholstery cleaning solution.

Over the years, we've compiled a list of common stains from Nuggeteers, so we have a lot of options! We tested the following products to help you know what to reach for first. When spot cleaning, use these products with a damp washcloth and make sure to take the cover off before cleaning, so that the stain isn't absorbed into your foam. After spot cleaning, wash your covers on the coldest machine setting available and hang to dry.

With a couldn’t-be-simpler three-step process:

1. Zip up each piece
2. Wash on cold by themselves
3. Air dry

If this process feels familiar, you’re right — it’s the same process for washing Cover Sets! If you have any direct stains to the Liner Set, dilute some Dawn dish soap in water and gently remove the stain with a clean cloth.

You can spot clean your foam by taking a wet rag and your favorite upholstery cleaner to the product — we've tested Folex and like it best. Once you're done, make sure your foam is completely dry before putting the covers back on. You can set the foam near a fan or open window to help speed up this process.

For future accidents, we highly recommend protecting your foam with a Nugget Liner Set or Chunk Liner Set, made from non-toxic waterproof material.

We chose not to waterproof our products because the sprays contain chemicals that many families choose to keep out of their homes. Our Cover Set fabric is thicker than most customers expect, and it's able to hold small messes pretty well until you’re able to clean them up. We do know that accidents happen with little ones, though! To protect your foam from unwanted spills, accidents, and mishaps, we suggest purchasing a Nugget Liner Set or Chunk Liner Set.

As with any upholstery, fur can cling to our fabrics a bit, so many people like to match the color of their product to hide it. But unlike other furniture, fur is extra easy to wipe off — vacuuming or sweeping with a lint roller both work like a charm! You can pick up or flip each piece effortlessly, so there aren't any nooks and crannies and unreachable spots, only simple flat surfaces.

No. Direct outdoor sunlight causes the fabric to fade, and Nugget products aren’t waterproof — which will mean some soggy bottoms if rain clouds roll in! After washing, you can take your Cover Set outside to air dry on a covered, dry surface (like the patio or deck), but don't leave it there.
