Product care

Q1. How do I best care for my furniture?

While installing or relocating furniture, do not drop, drag or stack the furniture. This may loosen joints, break wooden edges, scratch or chip edges, or damage upholstery.

Not all upholstery is UV resistant - protect furniture from the sun as it may cause fading and deterioration. Extreme heat or humidity can damage wood.

When cleaning soiled areas on upholstery, review the instructions of the COM/COL manufacturer. Be cautious in using bleaching detergents.

Do not bang legs with vacuum cleaners, and wipe wood finishes with a soft damp cloth, using a water soluble wood finish cleaner. Immediately wipe off moisture to prevent accumulation.

Rotate the cushions and fluff back pillows frequently.
