☆ Care ☆
- Regular Vacuuming - Vacuum your cotton - linen sofa with a soft - bristled attachment at least weekly. This removes dust, dirt, and debris from the surface and crevices, stopping them from embedding in the fabric and causing stains or damage.
- Spot Cleaning For small spills or stains, act fast. Blot the spill with a clean, white cloth or paper towel to soak up as much liquid as you can. Don't rub, as it may spread the stain and harm the fabric. Next, mix a little mild detergent with warm water. Dip a clean cloth in the solution, wring it out, and gently blot the stained area. Rinse the cloth with clean water and blot again to remove soap residue. Let the area air - dry fully.

Tips For Removable Sofas
▪ Employ a soft - brush vacuum head to clear dust from the sofa surface and gaps.
▪ Act fast on spills, using a damp cloth and gentle cleaner.
▪ If the sofa covers or protectors are detachable, they must be washed and maintained strictly according to the instructions on the care label to avoid damaging the flame-retardant fabric.
Tips For Fire-Retardant Fabrics
▪ Water washing is generally not advised for flame-retardant fabrics as it may impair their properties. If essential, follow the care label instructions strictly, keeping water below 40°C and using a neutral detergent.
▪ Prolonged direct sunlight fades and ages flame-retardant fabrics, so avoid placing sofas in such areas. Use curtains or sunshades if unavoidable.
Foam, Feather & Silk Floss
The seat cushions, meticulously handcrafted by Cottonfy, are filled with top - notch materials that have been precisely determined to offer the perfect loft for every cushion series. Similar to a pillow, all the fillings in both seat and back cushions will compress upon use. You can maintain the aesthetic appeal and functionality of your cushions through routine upkeep. Begin following these straightforward steps right after you start using your furniture:
High-density Sponge
- Regularly flip and rotate the cushion to ensure even usage and to minimise the formation of indentations.
- Avoid prolonged pressure or placing heavy objects in the same area to prevent compression and deformation.
- Clean dust and debris regularly using a vacuum cleaner or a soft brush.
Down Fillings
- Regularly fluff or shake the down filling gently to help restore its loft.
- Put a protective cover on to keep down clean.
- Let them breathe in fresh air occasionally.
Silk Floss Fillings
- Avoid friction and tugging to prevent damage to the silk fibres.
- Prevent moisture from getting in as silk floss is sensitive to damp.
- Regularly fluff gently or use a soft brush to remove dust.
Frames, Metal & Levelling
▪ All the sofas meticulously crafted by Cottonfy feature entire wooden frames sourced from naturally pollution - free pine wood. These frames are connected with finely made screws and bolts, and reinforced with sturdy springs and wide webbing straps to achieve optimal durability.
▪ The bed frames and legs inside the sofa beds are forged from iron metal. A skilled painting process is employed to ensure the iron frames are hard, smooth, and aesthetically pleasing. When using the sofa bed, the pull rope should be aligned parallel to the bed frame and pulled out gently to avoid scratches. Regularly clean the surface of the iron frames by gently wiping them with a pure cotton knit fabric dipped in a mild cleanser to remove surface dust. Keep the iron frames away from acidic and alkaline substances, such as sulfuric acid, vinegar, soda ash, soap solution, and soda water. If accidentally exposed to any of these, immediately rinse the stained area with clean water and then dry it with a dry cotton cloth.
▪ The furniture must be placed on a solid, even floor to ensure the product doesn't wobble and damage the frame. If the floor is uneven, felt pads or casters can be used on the feet to protect wooden and delicate floors and prevent marks.
▪ The removable foot tubes secured with screws may become loose during use. Check them once a month and gently turn the foot tubes to ensure they are secure, but be careful not to over - tighten.
▪ Avoid dragging or dropping the cushions onto table corners or legs, or leaning them against two table legs, as this could cause damage. Always lift the furniture with two people and set it down gently.
▪ To clean the wooden legs of the furniture, use a clean, damp cloth. Occasionally, you can polish them with natural wax. We recommend that you do not use household cleansers or cleaning products on the wooden legs.
