Using your new sofa cover is easy. Just lay it over your sofa, adjusting it to fit properly. To ensure the best fit, tuck the edges under the cushions. When it comes to maintenance, you can machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the fabric. After washing, tumble dry on low. Also, keep in mind that the color you see on your screen might be a bit different from the actual cover because of monitor settings. Enjoy your beautiful and functional sofa cover!
