How to Clean and Care for Furniture
If you've just purchased new furniture, you want to keep it looking its best so that you can enjoy your investment for years to come. The easiest way to keep your furniture looking new is by properly cleaning and caring for it.
General Furniture Care
Whether you have an upholstered sectional or a wooden end table, it's important to keep your furniture out of direct sunlight, away from heating or air conditioning vents, and away from moisture to keep it looking its best. Regularly vacuum your upholstered furniture to keep it free of dust and debris.

Wood Furniture Care
One of the keys to keeping wood furniture looking its best is protecting the finish by doing the following:
- Use coasters, placemats, and trivets.
- Use felt pads on accessories and tabletop decorations to protect from scratches. Also periodically rotate accessories to avoid permanent marks and impressions.
- Never slide items across the top of furniture as this can cause scratches and gouges. Instead, lift items and then place them.
- Always use a protective pad under your paper when writing with a ballpoint pen.
- Don't leave magazines or newspapers on wood surfaces. The ink could transfer and bleed into the finish and the wood.
- Always clean spills immediately.
