Here are practical tips to take care of your Daybed Sofa from ARV Furniture so it stays comfortable, stylish, and long-lasting:
🧼 Regular Cleaning
Vacuum weekly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust, crumbs, and pet hair from the cushions and frame.
Fabric upholstery: Spot clean with mild soap and warm water; always blot—never rub—to avoid spreading stains.
Leather or faux leather upholstery: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth. Use a leather conditioner every 3–6 months.
🛡️ Protection & Prevention
Use slipcovers or throws to protect the seating area from spills and wear, especially if the daybed is used daily.
Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of fabric or cracking of leather.
Rotate cushions regularly to ensure even wear and maintain shape.
Avoid sharp objects (keys, buckles, pet claws) that can tear or scratch the upholstery.
🛋️ Frame & Structure Care
Check joints and screws every few months to make sure they are tight and secure.
Avoid overloading the sofa with excessive weight—daybeds often serve as lounging beds, but shouldn’t be jumped on.
If it has a trundle or storage drawer, keep the tracks clean and lubricated for smooth sliding.
🌿 Freshness & Comfort
Air out cushions in sunlight occasionally to keep them fresh and prevent odors.
Fluff cushions often to maintain fullness.
For fabric cushions, use fabric freshener sprays sparingly to avoid buildup.
đź’ˇ Seasonal & Long-Term Care
Deep clean every 6–12 months (professional cleaning recommended for delicate fabrics like velvet or suede).
If moving the daybed, always lift instead of dragging to protect both the sofa frame and your floors.
👉 Since ARV Furniture specializes in high-quality Canadian-made pieces, proper care ensures your daybed sofa will last for years while retaining its elegance and comfort.
