Find out how to mop up spills, use a care kit and condition your leather sofa.
The best way to look after any leather sofa is to give it a thorough vacuum every week. This will help to make sure that no gritty particles have the chance to scratch or damage the leather of your sofa.
Keeping your new sofa looking like new is going to be one of your main priorities. Unfortunately it’s inevitable that spills and stains will happen. We all eat and drink on our sofas, and if you have kids or pets in the household, the chances of your sofa needing a clean from time to time are much higher.
Our care kits
To make cleaning easier, we’ve developed specialist cleaning products to deal with the most common spills and stains. This care kit includes a variety of products to help keep the leather of your sofa looking spotless and beautiful. Your kit may also contain conditioning agents, which revive the sheen and keep your leather supple and soft. The conditioner should be applied at least twice a year to prevent the leather becoming discoloured, dry and brittle.
There are products tailored to everyday and more resistant stains, so you’ll have everything you need to tackle any pesky little marks on the leather of your sofa. These cleaning products are carefully developed to be gentle yet effective and are the only products we recommend using to clean the natural leather on your sofa.
Never clean your leather sofa with any cleaning products not approved by us, especially baby wipes, washing up liquid or other cleaning products as they may contain degreasing agents that dry and damage the leather over time.
Mop up spills
With any kind of spill it’s always best to act as soon as possible. Full instructions are provided with your care kit but you should blot up as much of the liquid as you can immediately and then use the appropriate product from your care kit to remove any staining. Make sure that any cloths you use to absorb or rinse are clean and colourfast.
After cleaning leather you should apply the leather protection cream from the kit to prevent drying out or cracking of the leather.
Care kits cost £39 each or two for £60. You can add them to your order when you buy your sofa.
Important tip: To avoid water marks after cleaning we advise that you dampen a colourfast cloth with warm water and gently wipe the entire panel or cushion from seam to seam. This will help to prevent any water stains as the leather dries.
