Poang Chair Cover

[Christy]

Ikea poangs:
Can I get the white cover off and if so how? I see a zip but can't the cover
get past the arm. If I do get it off how can I wash crayon and grubby marks
out? If I can't get it off then how can I clean it ?

I just looked ar their website and it says thar you can wash the cover in
140 F water. Once you get it off. If you ca'nt get it off you can call Ikea.
They are pretty helpful.

You need to undo the fixings with an Allen key and fully unzipping the
cover, pull it over and and off the metal frame.
Putting it on is harder!

Oh, silly me. I never noticed the little screws holding it all together.
Even so, it was still hard to remove and as you say Dawn... bloody hard to
get back on especially so as the thread had gone in one hole. My poor thumb
is raw! Thanks to Katharina also for the advice on washing temperature.
All washed and clean now but a little shrunk I fear...can't quite get the
zip done up :(
