How to Clean and Maintain Your Estelita Sofa

Estelita sofas are designed to be durable, practical, and comfortable, while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of any room. We’ve selected high-quality fabrics that are prepared for all the challenges of everyday life with pets, children, and friends. Our sofas are crafted from materials that feature advanced stain-resistant technology, ensuring longevity and easy maintenance. Note that not all of our fabrics have the same stain-resistant properties, so please check the specific fabric details before purchasing.

To make your life easier, we’ve simplified the cleaning process to help you keep your sofa looking its best. Here are four easy steps to clean your Estelita sofa at home:

  1. Stay Calm When you see a stain, don’t panic! Cleaning an Estelita sofa is simple. For stains like mud, ketchup, lipstick, or putty, gently remove any residue with a spoon's edge. For stains like ink or coffee, dampen the fabric and start blotting right away.

  2. Water and Blot Apply water to the stain using a white paper towel, blotting gently. Avoid circular motions to prevent tearing the paper towel or embedding fibers into the fabric. Continue blotting until the stain no longer transfers onto the towel.

  3. Water and Circular Motion After blotting, use a microfiber cloth and apply more water to the stained area, rubbing in gentle circular motions. For stubborn stains, add a bit of white soap. Repeat until the stain is gone.

  4. Air Dry Allow the sofa to air dry. Do not use a hairdryer or apply heat, as this could set the stain deeper into the fibers.

How to Remove Common Stains

Household stains such as ink, coffee, mud, red wine, and ketchup are inevitable. Fortunately, they are easy to remove from your Estelita sofa. For most stains, water will suffice, but for more stubborn marks, a small amount of household soap can be effective.

  • Wine Stains: Blot the stain with water and a paper towel. Then, mix liquid hand soap with water and sponge the stain, repeating as needed. If the stain persists, try using a mixture of white vinegar and baking soda.

  • Ink Stains: Blot with a paper towel and water, then apply a bit of liquid soap and blot again. You can also use a mixture of vinegar and soap if needed.

  • Lipstick Stains: Remove excess lipstick with the back of a spoon, blot with a damp cloth, and rub gently in circular motions. Use baking soda and vinegar for tougher stains.

  • Vacuum daily to remove pet hair
  • Use a pet odor remover
  • Provide pet beds and scratching posts nearby
  • Maintain your pet’s nails to reduce scratches

By following these steps, you can keep your Estelita sofa looking beautiful for years to come!
