How should I wash the covers to keep my sofa bed looking as good as new?Updated 2 hours ago

The Koala Sofa Bed 4th Gen has some great new fabrics that make wash and care a cinch! 


For regular care, we recommend a weekly vacuum on the lowest setting. The added water-resistant treatment on the cover fabrics means most water-based spills will bead and are easily wiped away with a clean cloth if you are quick about it. Please note that the lining fabrics are not water-resistant and are not machine washable, you will need to spot clean these inner components


For spot cleaning, use a solution of mild detergent and clean warm water and a clean cloth to carefully clean out the stain. Avoid rubbing too hard and do not scrub with a stiff brush. When spot cleaning, take care not to wet/saturate the filling, blot out any excess liquid with a clean cloth and make sure that covers are completely dry before putting them back on.


If your Koala Sofa Bed 4th Gen looks like it's in need of a little more TLC, simply remove the covers and the topper along the velcro and by the zips and you will be able to throw them into your washing machine at home (please check the capacity of your washing machine and do not overfill it!)


Each cover has a care label letting you know how you need to launder it, please follow these directions closely. After washing, reshape the covers whilst wet and line dry in the shade. Covers cannot be tumble dried, ironed or bleached, this can cause damage or shrinkage. Always make sure that your covers are completely dry before reattaching them.
