The Darley is classed a low maintenance range. It has fixed seats filled with foam and a Dacron wrap. This is easy to look after - simply plump the cushions from time to time to encourage air back into the fillings. This will keep the cushions looking and feeling great.

The back cushions are slightly higher maintenance as they are filled with fibre which is a little bit like cotton wool and needs to be plumped on a regular basis to keep it looking great.

You can easily smooth the fabric or leather covers of the Darley using the Union Jack method described below:

Using clean, dry hands, begin by smoothing your cushions from the centre to the outside following a horizontal, and then a vertical line. Then, start at the centre again and smooth diagonally out to each corner. Smooth the cover right to the edges and tuck down the sides and back.

This technique is referred to as ‘dressing’ your sofa. Little and often is the best way to make sure your seats look plump and smooth.
