Let's first understand how to clean different types of sofas:

①Solid wood sofa

Solid wood sofas generally do not get dirty unless you splash ink on them. Therefore, there is basically no problem with cleaning solid wood sofas. If there is dust, just wipe it clean with a wet cloth.

②Leather sofa

Leather sofas are relatively resistant to dirt. If they get a little dirty in daily life, you can just wipe them with a damp cloth. However, they tend to turn black over time, so we can wax them to clean and maintain them.

③ Fabric sofa

There are two types of fabric sofas: one is washable, you can remove the sofa cover and wash it when it gets dirty; the other is non-washable, don't buy this kind of rubbish sofa, you have to replace it when it gets dirty! There are also tech fabric sofas, the waterproof and anti-dirty function of this kind of sofa is short-lived, and after a long time of use, it is no different from an ordinary fabric sofa, so it is recommended to choose carefully.

Regarding the non-removable and washable fabric sofa, I have fallen into this trap! A few years ago, I had no experience when buying a sofa, and I bought a fabric sofa that looked beautiful and was very comfortable to sit on. However, after using it for a few years, I regretted it!

Because after several years of "training", it has changed from its original light gray to dirty gray. Now I want to wash it, but I find that the sofa cover is not removable at all. Now it is in a state of "it is difficult to throw away, but a pity to abandon".

For the fabric sofa that is too dirty to be washed, I have only four words to say: It is not easy to throw away, but it is a pity to abandon it!

Throw away? Where to throw such a big sofa? If I hire someone to move it away, I will have to pay several hundred yuan for the moving fee, right?

Abandon? A good sofa, fully functional and practical, can also be used for sitting, wouldn't it be a pity to throw it away?

So what is the best way to deal with a non-removable and washable fabric sofa other than throwing it away? After some thinking, I have summarized two solutions:

①Sofa cushion

The seat cushions and armrests of the sofa are more likely to get dirty. You can add seat cushions or cloth pads on top of them. When they get dirty, you only need to clean the cushions. However, this is not a fundamental solution, because over time, areas other than the seat cushions and armrests will still get dirty.

② Finished sofa cover

This is the method I currently take! According to the size of the sofa, buy a fabric sofa cover and put it on the surface of the sofa to make the sofa look cleaner. There are many merchants selling sofa covers on the Internet, and you can buy them easily.

As a piece of furniture that is used frequently at home, the sofa is easy to get dirty, especially if there are children at home. If they touch the sofa with dirty hands after eating snacks, the sofa will get dirty even more easily. Therefore, when buying a sofa, you must consider the cleaning of the sofa! As a person who has suffered losses, I warn you - don't buy the kind of fabric sofa that cannot be disassembled and washed! Otherwise, after a few years, you will understand what I mean by " it's hard to throw away, but it's a pity to throw it away "!
