    There are five points to pay attention to when maintaining the sofa:

    1. Vacuum regularly, once a week is the best, you can first dust off the surface of the sofa with a feather duster, and then wipe the armrests of the sofa with a towel and the gap between the backrests. It is also possible to use a small vacuum cleaner, but do not use a suction brush to avoid breaking the threads on the weaving and making the cloth fluffy.

    2. Fabric sofas with sheaths can generally be washed. Among them, the elastic cover can be washed in the washing machine at home, and the larger cotton or linen sheath can be dry cleaned to prohibit bleaching. When ironing the sheath, it should be noted that some elastic sheaths are easy to dry and non-iron, and if the sheath is cotton, it should not be ironed.

    3. Don't move the sofa often, so as not to drag it hard and damage the sofa legs. Do not allow your child to bounce on the sofa to avoid skewing the springs and damaging them.

    4. If you find that the thread is loose, do not tear it off by hand, and you need to use scissors to cut it flat. And the wear resistance of the cloth sofa is not as good as the leather sofa, so you should avoid sitting in the same place all the time, if the balling, please use small scissors to remove. When there are large dirty spots, first scrub them with clean water, and if the cloth surface can be removed, remove them and clean them according to the instructions.

    5. Pay attention to moisture-proof, so as to avoid mold and rot of the filling such as brown lines and sponges inside the sofa. If the floor on which the sofa is placed is prone to moisture, it is best to cushion the sofa feet with something.

    Clever ways to clean fabric sofas:

    1. Sponge is dipped in dish soap for cleaning, sponge has a strong water absorption function, and friction will produce static electricity, so sponge is a good tool for fabric sofa cleaning.

    2. For the disassembleable and washable fabric sofa, it should be cleaned according to different materials to avoid fading, shrinkage and other conditions.

    3. For special stains, different cleaning liquids can be used for cleaning, so that targeted cleaning can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
