[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We bought our York sectional in 2015. It has held up amazingly. The cushions are so resilient. The couch had a lot of pandemic living on it so on the arms, let’s say they’re grimy from where my daughter clearly was wiping her hands. But it’s a dark gray and quite honestly it all just sort of blends in. Were moving it to a basement rec room and so are in the market for a new living room sofa so I’ll be looking at new options too. Might try something different or might stick with York. I will say that one thing I noticed being in the store is that whatever they are stocking York in now (feels linen-y) looked lumpy and wrinkly and just didn’t seem to hold the cushions very well. I would be concerned about buying that fabric. Having said that, at room and board you can, of course, choose any fabric. I will try to dig up the one that we have and post about it again. [/quote]

Something I learned from dcum is that people don’t know how to clean their upholstery but please, clean your upholstery. You just need an extractor. Or a shop vac. Get it wet, use a cleaner (I just use very diluted tide), scrub, suck out the water. Maybe go again with plain water. You might need more/stronger detergent for the greasy hand parts. Dawn is fine.

It’s not the fabric’s fault if it’s dirty and hasn’t been cleaned! [/quote]

I was singing the fabric’s praises,which is why it still looks good and hides wear fairly well. I just think the arms are beyond reclaiming, and yes, not the fabric’s fault. Sorry that didn’t come across. Room and Board recommended Folex for cleaning. It’s what we have. [/quote]

Folex is fine but you still need an extractor. [/quote]
