Tips to keep your sofa cushions looking new

To keep your sofa cushions looking new, you can apply the following care and maintenance tips:

Use a mattress cover: Place a protective cover on the sofa cushion to shield it from dust, oils, and stains. This makes cleaning easier and extends the cushion’s lifespan.

Regular cleaning: Vacuum the sofa cushions at least 1-2 times a week to remove dust, bacteria, and pet hair (if any). You can use specialized vacuum attachments to clean the crevices and edges of the sofa.

Wash the cover regularly: If the sofa cushion has a removable cover, wash it regularly to keep the sofa clean and fresh. Check the care label to choose the appropriate washing method.

Avoid direct sunlight: Sunlight can cause the fabric of the sofa cushion to fade, so avoid placing the sofa directly in sunlight or use curtains to reduce light exposure.

Rotate the cushions: To prevent the sofa cushions from becoming misshapen or sagging, rotate them regularly (once a month, if possible) to evenly distribute the weight.

Place the sofa in the right position: Avoid placing the sofa near heat sources like heaters or air conditioners, as this can cause the fabric to become dry or fade quickly.

Clean stains immediately: If there are any stains on the sofa cushion, clean them immediately to prevent the stain from soaking in and becoming harder to remove. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe and avoid using harsh chemicals.

Use a stain-repellent spray: You can apply a stain-repellent spray to the sofa fabric to prevent dirt and stains from sticking to the cushion.

These tips will help keep your sofa looking like new and ensure its comfort lasts for a long time.
