Your purchase of CR-Home furniture is an important purchase and with proper care it will give you many years of enjoyment. In order to protect your investment, use the following furniture care tips.
Wood furniture: Do not place your furniture over heating or air conditioning vents, in damp areas or in direct sunlight such as under a window. Avoid placing plastic, rubber or acrylic materials (stick-on feet, placemats, etc.) on your furniture since the chemicals in these products may react with the finish and cause severe damage. It is better to use a piece of felt or cloth under accessories that could scratch or dent the surface of your furniture. Place a protective pad on the surface of your furniture if you are using it as a writing surface. Pens and pencils can easily leave an imprint and mar the finish. Immediately wipe any moisture that may spill onto your furniture. Always rub with the grain. Water will cause white spots in the finish in a short amount of time. Other liquids, such as finger nail polish & remover, alcohol, perfume, and medicines can severely damage the finish of furniture. Dust with a clean, lint-free, dry cloth. Applying a quality furniture polish every six months will also add to the life and beauty of your new furniture!
Stone furniture: Wipe up spills immediately. Clean with a mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly.
Wicker furniture: Vacuum gently or brush with a soft bristle brush.
Metal furniture: Dust with dry or slightly-dampened cloth or a vacuum cleaner brush. If soiled, wash with cloth or sponge wrung out of mild detergent and lukewarm water. Wipe with clean sponge or cloth wrung out of water. Wipe dry with cloth to avoid water spots.
Upholstered furniture: Rotate and flip the seat cushions weekly to increase their life. Fluff fiber backs and throw pillows weekly to keep materials evenly distributed to allow for more even wear over time. Vacuum weekly using a brush attachment to remove soil between fibers that can cause abrasion and wear. Place furniture in a location protected from heat, moisture and sunlight, as these elements may discolor upholstery.
