Protecting your furniture

Few investments you make in your life are as personal, or will be a part of your life as long as your furniture. Furniture makes a house a home, and is the setting on which we: spend time with our families, entertain our friends, and celebrate our holidays.

Even though time can take its toll on furniture, there are some things you can do to protect it.

1-Always dust your furniture with a feather duster, or similar item, rather than a cloth. This will keep the dust from scratching the finish while you clean.

2-If you have leather furniture, condition it at least once a year with a good quality leather conditioner. This will keep the leather soft, supple and free from cracks for years to come.

3-Oil the hinges in your recliners and motion furniture once a year. This will keep them working smoothly, and prevent the frame from bending due to a seized joint.

4-Upholstery should be vacuumed from time to time to keep dust from working into the fabric. Fluff pillows to keep them looking plump and fresh. Direct sunlight may fade certain fabrics, so let your sales person know if you are putting your furniture in a sun room, or by a window.

All of these steps will help keep your new furniture looking nice, but no matter how careful you are, there is always the possibility of an accident. Vacuum cleaners, pets, children, and household cleaners are all common ways to damage your furniture.

That’s why Olinde’s has worked so hard to find a program that will protect your investment.
Ask your salesperson about Olinde’s Elite Program. For a small sum, all of your furniture can be protected against accidental damage such as: spills, stains, rips, cuts, tears, burns, scratches and breakage. If something does happen to your furniture, your Elite plan will make sure it is repaired or replaced at no charge to you.

At Olinde’s we are very proud to offer this program to our customers, and we encourage everyone to take advantage of it.

We look forward to seeing you in the store.
