IKEA SKOGSKLÖVER roller blind: wipe, don't machine-wash

The official SKOGSKLÖVER care label says no washing, bleaching, tumble drying, ironing or dry cleaning; use a damp cloth and mild cleaner. Check other blinds individually.

Blind fabric, coatings and hardware vary. The IKEA US SKOGSKLÖVER listing specifically recommends wiping and prohibits laundering. Check the label for your exact regional version. Never mix bleach or harsh cleaning chemicals; use only a small amount of mild cleaner on a cloth when allowed.

0 / 6 done

Check the exact product label. If yours is a nonwashable SKOGSKLÖVER model, do not soak it or put it in a washing machine.
Lower the blind gently and remove loose dust with a soft dry cloth.
Use a very small amount of manufacturer-approved mild cleaner on a cloth and test a hidden area; never mix bleach or strong solvents.
Wipe stains lightly and remove residue with a separate slightly damp cloth. Do not saturate the fabric or scrub harshly.
Let the blind air-dry while extended. Avoid hair dryers, heaters, rolling it tightly when wet, or letting water enter the mechanism.
Once dry, check that it raises and lowers normally. If the mechanism binds or parts are damaged, follow the maker's service directions rather than forcing repairs.
