Product Care Guide - Upholstered Furniture

Caring for fabric furniture is crucial to maintaining its appearance and prolonging its lifespan. Remember, specific care needs might differ based on the type of fabric used on the furniture, so it's essential to adhere to the manufacturer's guidelines. Regular maintenance and prompt attention to spills or stains can significantly prolong the life and appearance of fabric furniture. Here are general care instructions to keep your fabrics looking their best:

Read Manufacturer's Instructions: Always refer to the manufacturer's care instructions and recommendations specific to your fabric furniture. Some fabrics may have unique cleaning or care requirements.

Vacuuming: Use a soft brush attachment to vacuum fabric surfaces regularly to remove dust, crumbs, and debris. Pay attention to crevices and seams. Do not use strong suction modes as it may cause pulls or damage to fabrics.

Rotation: If possible, rotate cushions regularly to distribute wear evenly.

Spot Cleaning: Immediately attend to spills or stains by blotting (not rubbing) with a clean cloth or paper towel. Use a mild detergent mixed with water or a specialized upholstery cleaner as recommended by the manufacturer.

Overall Cleaning: Depending on use, consider an overall cleaning every 6-12 months using a steam cleaner or a professional upholstery cleaning service. Test any cleaning method on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Fabric Protector: Apply a fabric protector or stain repellent as per manufacturer instructions to help guard against spills and stains. Reapply as needed, following the product's guidelines.

Avoid Sunlight: Protect fabric furniture from direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure can cause fading and deterioration of the fabric.

Pets and Sharp Objects: Keep pets away from fabric furniture to prevent claws from damaging the fabric. Avoid placing sharp objects directly on the upholstery.

Fluffing: Regularly fluff and rotate cushions to maintain their shape and support.

Pilling: Pilling on fabrics is normal from wear and tear. Use a fabric shaver or a lint roller to remove any pilling that may occur on the fabric.

Professional Maintenance: Consider having a professional upholstery cleaner or technician inspect and maintain the furniture annually for any necessary repairs or deep cleaning if suitable.
