At Danovel, we believe that proper care and maintenance are essential to preserving the beauty and longevity of your furniture. This guide provides detailed instructions to help you take the best possible care of your investment, ensuring it remains in excellent condition for years to come.
Wood Furniture Care
- Clean Regularly: Wipe down with a soft, damp cloth to keep dust away. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Protect from Moisture: Always use coasters or placemats for hot, cold, or wet items to prevent damage.
- Polish Occasionally: Apply a good wood polish every 6-12 months to keep your furniture looking rich and vibrant.
- Shield from Sunlight: Keep furniture away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or warping. Use curtains or blinds for extra protection.
Fabric Upholstery Care
- Vacuum Regularly: Use a soft brush attachment to gently remove dust and debris, keeping your fabric fresh and clean.
- Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stains, use a fabric cleaner suitable for the material, and always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protective Treatments: Consider applying a fabric protector to resist stains and spills, prolonging the life of your upholstery.
- Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep sharp items and pets away from the fabric to prevent tears or snags.
- Protect from Sunlight: Avoid placing your sofa under strong, exposed sunlight to prevent the fabric from fading over time. Use curtains or blinds to shield it from direct sun when necessary.
Leather Furniture Care
- Clean Regularly: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Use leather-specific cleaners sparingly for tough stains.
- Condition Often: Apply leather conditioner every 6-12 months to keep it soft and prevent cracks.
- Avoid Heat and Sun: Keep leather away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading or drying.
- Protect from Spills: Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth to avoid stains and damage.
- Prevent Scratches: Keep sharp objects and pets away to avoid scratching the surface.
Foam Cushion Care
High-Density Foam:
- Shape Maintenance: Rotate and fluff cushions regularly to maintain even wear.
- Avoid Heavy Loads: Keep heavy objects off cushions to prevent flattening over time.
- Clean Regularly: Vacuum cushions frequently to keep them free of dust and debris.
Medium-Density Foam:
- Regular Flipping: Turn cushions periodically to maintain their original shape and comfort.

Soft Foam
- Refluff Regularly: Fluff cushions to restore their original softness and shape.
- Avoid Overloading: Reserve for areas with minimal load to prevent flattening.
Feather-Sandwich Cushion Care
- Regular Fluffing: Fluff cushions daily to redistribute the feathers and maintain a plush, even surface.
- Rotate Often: Switch cushion positions regularly to ensure even wear and prevent sagging in specific spots.
- Moisture Protection: Keep cushions away from liquids, as feathers can absorb moisture and lose loft.
Metal Accents Care
- Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive scouring pads or strong chemicals that could damage the metal finish.
- Protect from Moisture: Wipe away any water or spills immediately to prevent corrosion or tarnishing.
- Polish Occasionally: Use a metal-specific polish to restore shine and maintain the surface's beauty.
