Caring for your Furniture

Your furniture has been constructed to high standards from carefully selected materials to give you years of comfort and satisfaction with the correct care and routine maintenance. The following advice is given to help achieve this and prolong the life of your furniture.

General Care

Regular cleaning with a soft bruse and / or a vacuuming of the furniture will help keep your furniture looking its best. Accumulated dust will accelerate the wear of the covers.

Avoid sitting on the arms or edges of the cushions as this can distort and reduce the life expectancy of the furniture.

Avoid sharp objects, buckles, jewellery, etc as well as household pets from coming into contact with the fabrics as these can snag and cause pulls. If snags to occur always cut them off with scissors, never try to pull them out.

Avoid keeping your furniture directly in sunlight or reflective light, as this can cause fading and premature wear. DO NOT allow the furniture to come into contact with a direct heat source.

Decorative facias and trims are usually treated with a resilient lacquer and should be cleaned with a soft wet cloth or duster. NEVER polish or use solvent cleaners.

Zip fasteners are mostly used for ease of filling and assembly during manufacture and do not necessarily indicate that covers are removeable. If you should ever cause to remove zipped items take great care in replacing them correctly and never force a zip or get fabric trapped when fitting. NEVER lift items by the zips.

Reclining furniture has many moving parts and it is normal for minor squeaks and creaks to emit from the recliner whilst it is in use, this is normal and should not be a cause for concern. The manufacturers cannot be responsible for any damage or premature wear that may occur to any area of the kickboard material through shoes or heels of shoes or any type of footwear.

NOTES

Caring for your cushions and fibre interiors. Non reversible cushions should be repositioned frequently so that wear is spread evenly throughout the cushions. Reversible cushions should also be turned as well as repositioned. Any fibre cushions should be regularily and vigorously plumped to retain their look and performance. IMPORTANT foam seat cushions will in the first few weeks loose 20% of their original hardness, this is quite normal and will not affect their long term performance.

Fabrics

Due to the nature of certain fabrics there are sometimes slight variations in colour shading, this can even occur within the same batches and should not be regarded as a defect. Exacting care is taking to ensure reasonable matches at all times and this will have been checked throughout the process.

Cleaning spots and spills

For all spillages it is recommended you use a soft absorbant cloth to soak up the initial spillage. If the spillage has caused staining we recommend you contact specialist cleaners who are equipped to deal with such occurrences.
