Let's take a look at a few specific ways to care for your sofa.

● Removing wool and lint from the sofa
The best way to remove lint from upholstered furniture is to use a machine designed specifically for this purpose. There are two types of these inexpensive devices on sale: battery-powered or plug in-powered. In addition, you can use a more "extreme" way - to shave lint with an ordinary razor, but this method is undesirable, because it can damage the fibers of the fabric.

● Sofa dry cleaning

Any piece of upholstered furniture, even if there are no obviously noticeable stains on it, requires periodic cleaning from dust and small dirt. After processing the sofa or armchair with an ordinary vacuum cleaner, the furniture should be wiped with a damp cloth. Note that the vacuum cleaner removes dust only from the surface of the sofa. Cleaning the sofa with a washing vacuum cleaner is not recommended for all types of cleaning fabric couch upholstery. If your straight or corner sofa is upholstered with velour or other fabric with delicate material, it is better not to experiment with the washing vacuum cleaner, but less delicate upholstery (for example, microfiber) is cleaned with it very successfully.
