• Go for quality. As Ofcasa uses thick, coated faux leather it resists peeling.
• Strong frames matter. Our dining chairs are built with sturdy wood or steel frames.

Is Faux Leather Easy to Clean?

Cleaning faux leather furniture is very easy and low maintenance.

• To keep your faux leather furniture clean, start with a daily dusting using a soft cloth.
• In case of spills or stains, use a mix of mild soap and water, and lightly blot the stained area (don't rub). You can then leave it to air dry or even use a blow-dryer for a minute or two.
• To deep clean every month, use a neutral or mild cleaner. Be sure to avoid alcohol-based cleaners, as they will damage the material.

This simple routine keeps your furniture clean, gleaming, and enduring for a long time with very little work.
