Loose cushions and pillows should be turned, rotated and fluffed on a weekly basis to keep filling materials evenly distributed to allow for even wear. Vacuum all upholstery once a week with a brush attachment. Feather/ down cushions can be cleaned using a soft brush to clean the fabric. Keep upholstery away from heat and moisture, and never expose upholstery to direct sunlight as fading and discoloration may occur. Professionally clean your upholstery once a year.
