Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
Unfortunately, we do not recommend machine washing, which is very damaging to fabric. We specialise in higher end upholstery fabrics and linens that require dry cleaning, to maintain their color. You may also hand wash in Woolite, but air drying is highly recommended for all fabrics.
All orders are produced on demand and have a 2- 3 week processing time. Please allow an extra week or two for international delivery. Domestic USA shipments take 3-5 business days.
Rockin Cushions slipcovers are made specifically for IKEA furniture. They WILL NOT FIT other brands. We make to order and would appreciate as few returns as possible. Please do not purchase our covers if you don't have IKEA furniture.
Unfortunately we do not make covers for custom furniture and are unable to produce special sizes.
Please contact us with your specific request, to see if your fabric is suitable for a custom order. Please note that custom orders are non-returnable and we are unable to guarantee a perfect fit.
Unfortunately, we are unable to make custom sized slipcovers
Rockin Cushions slipcovers are not exact replicas of the IKEA brand. This is because we use fabrics of differing content (cotton, polyester etc). Some fabrics stretch better than others. For this reason, we use invisible zippers and other notions to accommodate. Our covers are made to make your IKEA furniture look better, not the same.
We accept returns and exchanges within 30 days of purchase. Soiled, damaged or washed items will not be refunded. If there is a problem with your order, please contact us: info@rockincushions.com

Armchair

Ektorp covers have an invisible zipper down the back of the chair and pleating around the legs. Piping is not included. The footstool cover is one piece with two invisible zipper closures that go over the entire box. You will need to remove this cover to access the lid and contents of the footstool.
Poang cushion styles are explained in the slipcover guide. The slipcovers are not replacement cushions, they are made to go over your existing cushion (cover and foam inserts) for a cosmetic upgrade. The slipcovers DO NOT have padding. The chair cushion body does not have Velcro, as it tends to shift over time and not align correctly with the frame. As it is a second cover over the original, it is not needed for the cushion to fit snugly on the chair. The footstool cover has Velcro on the bottom to secure it to the footstool frame.
Covers for the kids Poang chairs can be purchased in the "Outlet" section.
The Koarp slipcover has two invisible zippers on the back rear edges of the slipcover, along with Velcro. You will need to unscrew the bottom frame to slip it over the chair.
Office
