To keep your contemporary dinette set from ARV Furniture in top shape, follow these simple yet effective maintenance tips:
🧽 1. Clean Regularly and Gently
Use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe down the table and chairs after each use.
For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and warm water solution—avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives.
Immediately dry surfaces to prevent moisture damage, especially if your set includes wood, MDF, or veneer.
☀️ 2. Protect Against Sun Damage
Avoid placing your dinette set in direct sunlight to prevent fading, discoloration, or warping.
Use curtains or blinds to reduce UV exposure during peak hours.
🔧 3. Tighten and Inspect Hardware
Periodically check and tighten screws or bolts on chairs and tables to ensure stability.
Look for signs of wear on joints, legs, and hinges if your table has extension leaves.
🪑 4. Care for Upholstered Chairs
Vacuum fabric or faux leather seats regularly to remove dust and crumbs.
For fabric: Spot-clean spills immediately using upholstery-safe cleaner.
For faux leather or leather: Wipe with a damp cloth and dry right away. Use a leather conditioner every few months if applicable.
🛡️ 5. Use Protective Accessories
Add placemats, coasters, and table runners to protect the tabletop from hot dishes, moisture, or scratches.
Use felt pads under chair legs to prevent floor damage and noise.
🌡️ 6. Control Humidity
Keep the dining area at moderate humidity to prevent wood swelling or cracking.
Avoid placing your set near heat sources like vents, radiators, or fireplaces.
🚫 7. Avoid Excessive Weight or Rough Use
Don’t stand or place heavy objects on the table or chair arms.
Prevent children from using chairs as step stools or play structures.
🧴 8. Polish or Refinish as Needed
For wood or wood-like surfaces, use a furniture polish occasionally to maintain sheen.
Refinish the table or chairs if you notice fading, chips, or dullness over time (consult ARV Furniture if unsure about finishes used).
By following these maintenance tips, your contemporary dinette set from ARV Furniture will stay stylish, functional, and durable for years to come. Let me know if you want care instructions specific to a material type (glass top, marble, metal base, etc.).
