Furniture Care & Maintenance Guide

1. Introduction

This Furniture Care and Maintenance Guide is provided to help customers look after items purchased from our store and used in Australian homes.

Through our website, we aim to support long-term product performance by offering practical advice that helps preserve appearance, comfort and everyday functionality.

Regular care not only extends the life of furniture but also keeps living spaces clean, safe and enjoyable.

2. General Care Principles

All furniture benefits from routine maintenance and mindful everyday use. We recommend:

  • Keeping items away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading
  • Avoiding exposure to excessive moisture or heat sources
  • Cleaning spills promptly with a dry or slightly damp cloth
  • Using coasters, placemats or protective covers where appropriate
  • Checking fittings and fasteners periodically to ensure stability

These simple steps help maintain furniture condition over time.

3. Care Guidelines by Product Type

Double Beds

To maintain double beds in good condition:

  • Rotate mattresses regularly to promote even wear
  • Use mattress protectors to reduce dust and moisture build-up
  • Vacuum bed frames and headboards to remove dust
  • Tighten screws and joints periodically to maintain structural stability

Sofa Bed

Sofa beds require both seating and sleeping surfaces to be kept in good order:

  • Clean upholstery according to care labels
  • Check folding mechanisms and hinges regularly
  • Remove debris from moving parts
  • Avoid forcing the conversion mechanism to prevent damage

3 Seater Sofas

For three-seater sofas:

  • Fluff and rotate cushions to maintain shape
  • Vacuum fabric or leather surfaces weekly
  • Keep away from direct sunlight to minimise colour changes
  • Wipe frames and legs with a soft cloth

Recliner Sofa

Recliner sofas benefit from careful handling:

  • Operate reclining functions gently
  • Keep moving components free from dust
  • Inspect cables or levers periodically
  • Follow upholstery cleaning recommendations

4. Upholstery and Surface Care

Different materials require specific cleaning approaches:

  • Fabric upholstery should be vacuumed regularly and spot-cleaned immediately
  • Leather surfaces can be wiped with a dry cloth and treated with suitable conditioners
  • Timber or metal parts should be dusted and cleaned using non-abrasive products

Always test cleaning products on a small hidden area first.

5. Long-Term Maintenance Tips

To support ongoing furniture performance:

  • Schedule routine inspections for loose fittings
  • Reposition furniture occasionally to ensure even wear
  • Keep furniture in well-ventilated areas
  • Follow all product-specific care instructions provided at purchase

Our store encourages responsible care practices to help customers enjoy their furniture for many years.
