Microsuede Recliner FAQ's and Characteristics

Microsuede recliners are made up of tiny, polyester mircofibers that have been split into millions of finer fibers. Even though these fibers are finer than silk, they are still able to maintain strength and uniformity when woven together.

Microsuede is quickly becoming one of the most popular types of fibers used in upholstery and clothing. Choosing a piece if furniture that contains microsuede is easy. Here is why:

Microsuede:

• is lightweight
• resists wrinkling and pilling
• is resilient
• is easy to clean
• has long-lasting color
• does not shrink
• does not absorb liquids or fluids easily
• is great for those with allergies

How Do I Care for My Microsuede Recliner?
Microsuede care is easy! Apply a damp, clean towel or sponge with mild soap to spills or stains. Blot area, and use a dry towel to absorb any excess liquid. For general maintenance, have your microsuede furniture steam cleaned a few times a year. You can also use a lint brush or vacuum.

Which Is Better? Leather Recliners or Microsuede Recliners?
Leather and microsuede are very different, but that does not necessarily mean that one is better than the other. Leather is a natural substance, while micosuede is synthetic. Because of this, miscosuede is often less expensive, which is seen as a plus to some!

Both leather and microsuede are durable and easy to clean. A wide-held belief is that microsuede furniture is better than leather for those with children or pets, but that is not necessarily true. Many people, though, do choose microsuede for high use areas in their home.

A Word of Caution
Microsuede, like other synthetic materials, does not do well in excessive heat! Keep microsuede furniture away from heat ducts and vents.
