With the elegant appeal of quality leather furniture, you can bring an entire room together. As long as you apply the proper care, your leather pieces will adorn your home for many years. Use these tips to maintain your leather living room furniture:
Too much exposure to direct sunlight or hot air from a heater can suck the moisture out of your furniture. When leather starts to dry, it gets hard, loses its color, and can even crack. Try to position your furniture away from the windows, heaters, and fireplaces to prevent issues with dryness.
You can either use a clean cloth or a vacuum attachment to keep leather furniture clean. In homes without pets, you can clean every few weeks to continue to enjoy the original condition of the furniture. If you do have pets, you might want to clean once a week to ensure that everything stays in top shape.
Soap, cleaning solutions, and ammonia will ruin your leather. You should also avoid using large amounts of water on stains. If you spill something onto our furniture, blot up as much as possible with a clean cloth. You should use a quality leather conditioner every six to twelve months to keep the leather supple and comfortable.
