Sofas

Our work leads us to be in daily contact with your questions and curiosities. We collect statistics on the most frequent customers’ doubts, with regard to the whole world of upholstery furniture. In this article our staff will answer the five most common questions, with the belief that this mini-guide will be useful for many.

1. Can I change the sofa’s covering?
All the fabric, eco-leather or microfibre sofas by Doimo Salotti are completely removable. This feature allows you to require the replacement of the coverings even after years from the purchase. We ensure the availability of the purchased sofa’s covering up to 10 years from the eventual discontinuation of the model.
This means that even if the sofa has been discontinued, for another 10 years we can create and give you a new covering.
Of course, Doimo Salotti has constantly updated its collectios of fabrics and therefore we recommend you to contact your trusted in order to choose the best fabric, suitable for you, also scratchproof or stain resistant.

2. Can I change the base supports of my sofa?
If the sofa already consents several possibilities in terms of colors and shapes for its base supports you can change them, otherwise it’s not possible. To order them, just contact a Doimo Salotti reatiler in your area, who will give you all the needed information.

3. How do I clean the eco-leather covering?
A proper maintenance is essential for eco-leather coverings. NO to degreasers. They clean well, but after a short period (it depends on how much you use them) your sofa can be inexorably ruined; technically it is called "cooked" by this aggressive detergent. If you really have to remove stains , use a sponge soaked in water and a small amount of neutral soap, but dry the surface very well after the cleaning. Moisture damages eco-leather too!

4. Are there any anti-scratch coverings?
Any covering can guarantee a 100% anti-scratch resistance. However, there are some fabrics which, due to their structure, make the tearing and fraying of the weave more difficult. Usually they are technical coatings with polyesters, such as some microfibers (ECOFIBER) or fabrics with dense and closed structures such as stain-resistant and water-repellent (EMI or EVIA). Keep in mind that the choice of easily washable fabrics or an eventual sofa with removable cover can make the difference.

5. Can I remove the L-element and replace it with an armrest?
It depends on the type of sofa you purchased. If the sofa has a bayonet coupling system the change it’s possible, otherwise it’s not.

The sofas by Doimo Salotti can all be covered with stain-resistant fabrics and they represent the perfect union between pleasantness and resistance to liquids, both oily and aqueous, which do not penetrate thanks to the special stain-resistant treatment of the fabric.

All this is possible thanks to the research and implementation of innovative nanotechnologies capable of operating directly on the fabric yarn, a permanent waterproofing process. The result is a water-repellent, oil-repellent, breathable, hypoallergenic and antibacterial fabric that maintains its characteristics even after several washes.
