Here are some tips to maintain your drop headrest sofa bed from ARV Furniture:
1. Regular Cleaning:
Vacuum Weekly: Use a vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove dust, dirt, and debris from the surface and crevices.
Spot Cleaning: For fabric models, clean stains promptly with a mild detergent and water solution. For leather or faux leather, use a damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner.
2. Protect the Upholstery:
Use Covers: Consider using a removable sofa cover to protect the upholstery from spills and wear.
Avoid Direct Sunlight: Keep the sofa bed away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading or leather cracking.
3. Maintain the Mechanism:
Lubricate Moving Parts: Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the hinges and joints of the drop headrest and folding mechanisms to ensure smooth operation.
Check for Tightness: Periodically tighten screws and bolts to maintain stability.
4. Handle the Headrest with Care:
Avoid Excess Weight: Do not place heavy items on the headrest when it’s in the upright position.
Gentle Adjustment: Adjust the headrest slowly to prevent strain on the mechanism.
5. Refresh the Cushioning:
Fluff the Cushions: Rotate and fluff cushions regularly to maintain their shape and comfort.
Support Structure: Check the mattress or padding (if applicable) for sagging and replace as needed.
6. Prevent Scratches and Dents:
Protective Pads: Use felt pads under the sofa bed’s legs to protect the floor and prevent movement.
Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep sharp objects away from the sofa to prevent tears or scratches.
7. Professional Maintenance:
Annual Deep Cleaning: Schedule a professional upholstery cleaning once a year to keep it in top condition.
Repair Issues Promptly: Address any mechanical or upholstery damage immediately to prevent worsening.
