Faux leather sleeper sofa – how to pick and maintain

February 15, 2015 by Jean-Marc Chateigner 1 Comment

A faux leather sleeper sofa can seem like a very obvious choice when you don’t have a big budget, but you should definitely stay away from this idea because some of these furniture items can be extremely pricey and even much more problematically, they can be very difficult to choose!

And indeed, this is what I’m going to talk about in this post, how to pick and maintain a faux leather sleeper sofa correctly, because most people are going to make the same mistakes all the time, they are going to go for the cheap brands and soon, they will find themselves with a cheap piece of plastic and cloth that’s worthless and hideous!

If you would like to avoid these problems, I highly recommend that you follow the advice I’m going to give you in this post.

The first one is related to how to choose and select the right faux leather sleeper sofa for you.

For me, doing this can be very easy, but for most people, it can be a challenging situation, that’s why I’m going to give you my most important advice for choosing the right faux leather sleeper sofa for you.

The first one is to always focus on the store where you are going to buy it.

If you are dealing with an unknown store which provides no warranty and may seem a little doubtful, then please, don’t buy from it.

Although I am a faux leather artisan, whenever I would like to buy a piece of furniture, I always ask for a warranty, if I don’t have it, I’m not going to buy it.

Give your items luster and durability using this powerful faux leather cleaner: Click here!

And yes, I highly recommend that you invest in a warranty because most brands can just offer you up to one year, when in fact, the real problems are going to start appearing after this time.

The second thing you need to always have in mind is to forget about the price.

Indeed, in people’s minds, faux leather is synonym of cheap material and fabric, but this product has gone a long way from the rigid and difficult to manipulate material it used to be, and now, in most cases, you cannot differentiate between real leather and faux leather.

There is no harm in paying the right price for a faux leather sleeper sofa as long as it’s of high quality.

Don’t try to always go cheap when buying faux leather furniture pieces.

The third thing to focus on is the brand.

I’ve made the mistake of buying many of my faux leather fabrics and furniture items from unknown brands, most often, they were Chinese and of no reputation at all!

I really regret making these choices and I only buy my faux leather furniture from known brands nowadays, and this is what I recommend you to do as well.

Then, how to maintain a faux leather sleeper sofa?

Remember to use the following conditioner to maintain your faux leather objects cracks free: Click here!

Because it can be used for resting and for even prolonged use, I highly recommend that you stay away from neglecting your sleeper sofa for a long time and to always apply a good quality faux leather conditioner at least once every three months, one more very important thing is to keep it away from humidity and sunlight as much as possible, for example, be careful when you are enjoying a drink, if it spills, you need to act very quickly and you need to always have a cleaning tissue nearby, in fact, the same advice you need to respect when you are dealing with a real leather sleeper sofa are the same you need to respect as well when dealing with a faux leather sleeper sofa as well.
