Upholstered furniture brings softness and soul to your space. To keep it looking and feeling its best, a little regular care goes a long way.
Daily Use & Preventive Care
- Gently vacuum cushions and fabric surfaces weekly using an upholstery-safe attachment. This helps lift lint and particles before they settle in.
- Rotate and fluff cushions regularly to encourage even wear and lasting shape.
- Keep pieces out of direct sunlight or strong heat sources to avoid discoloration or fading over time.
Spills Happen
- Blot spills quickly with a clean, absorbent cloth—don’t rub. Dab from the outside in to prevent stains from spreading.
- For stubborn spots, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or over-wetting the fabric.
- When in doubt, consult a professional upholstery cleaning service for deep or set-in stains.
Slipcovers & Details
- If your piece includes removable covers, wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid the dryer—heat can alter the shape and fit.
- Always zip or fasten closures before washing, and let covers air dry to help preserve their texture and tailored look.
Long-Term Love
- Avoid sitting or leaning heavily on arms, backs, or edges that aren’t designed for full weight.
- Check base hardware and legs every few months to ensure all connections remain tight and secure.
