Fixed upholstery stays on the sofa. Always follow the care instructions for your exact material and test an inconspicuous area first.
Use a clean, absorbent cloth to lift liquid promptly. Avoid vigorous rubbing, which can spread a mark or affect the surface.
Do not soak the upholstery or apply an unapproved cleaner. Ask us for the care instructions for your chosen material.
Do not remove or machine-wash the fitted fabric cover. For a stubborn mark, seek material-specific advice or a professional upholstery cleaner.
