CrimeaPRESS reports:
An interesting study was conducted in which housewives were asked the question: “What irritates you most from what is commonly called “not in order” in the house?” And it turned out that the leading triggers include stains on upholstered furniture and animal hair on the upholstery of this very furniture. The degree of irritation increases significantly if the young lady does not know how to cope with this problem. Moreover, such “ignorance” is not uncommon. And all because today the furniture industry has stepped forward — in its production they use quite complex materials, the care of which is not so simple. Both from the point of view of the process itself, and from the point of view of which means can be used applicable to a particular material, and which will definitely do harm.
What to do? There are two options: learn how to care for your interior items yourself or seek help from specialists. Dry cleaning of upholstered furniture at home today is one of those services on which it is better to spend money than to waste your time and energy on a task whose result may not be satisfactory. For example, do you know how to remove wine stains from the plush upholstery of your sofa? Yes, so that there is no hint of trouble left. Or how to update the material that is upholstered in your chair, “tired” from a long life with you? So that it breathes life and bright colors again? Surely the answer here is no. And the experts know. Moreover, they master both the intricacies of the process itself and have the tools and means at hand, thanks to which the problem is solved as quickly as possible and as efficiently as possible.

Let us note that not only its appearance as of “here and now”, but also its service life depends on how competently the furniture is cared for.
In general, the frequency of general professional furniture dry cleaning, as a rule, depends on several factors. Somehow:
- operating intensity: if the furniture is “in use” to the maximum, for example, “in service” in the living room or kitchen, the frequency of cleaning may be higher.
- material type: Different materials require different maintenance methods. For example, textiles and leather may require more regular cleaning compared to wood.
- environmental conditions: If you have children, pets in your home, or if you smoke indoors, the furniture may become dirty more quickly. In such cases, more frequent cleaning may be required.
- regular prevention: Regular preventive measures, such as daily cleaning and furniture protection products, can reduce the need for deep cleaning.
General recommendations include deep cleaning your furniture about once or twice a year. However, these timings may vary depending on the above factors. If you have specific recommendations from the furniture manufacturer or furniture care professionals, follow these recommendations and then the furniture will definitely last you longer.
