Cleaning & Caring for Your MAXYOYO Modular Sofa

Your MAXYOYO modular sofa isn’t just a place to sit—it’s where you unwind, host friends, watch movies, and sometimes even eat dinner. It’s designed to be flexible, stylish, and long-lasting—but like any well-loved piece of furniture, it deserves regular care to keep it looking fresh and functioning beautifully.

In this guide, we’ll share our best modular couch cleaning tips to help you maintain your sofa, protect your investment, and enjoy a clean, cozy space every day. Whether you're dealing with dust, spills, or everyday wear and tear, these tips will keep your washable sofa in top shape.

1. Daily & Weekly Maintenance: Keep Dust at Bay

Even if your sofa doesn’t look dirty, dust and allergens can build up in the fabric and cushions over time. This is especially true in homes with pets, open windows, or high foot traffic.

How to maintain:

Vacuum regularly: Use a vacuum with a brush or upholstery attachment once a week to remove crumbs, dust, and pet hair from cushions, seams, and underneath modules.

Air it out: When possible, open windows to allow fresh air to circulate around the sofa, which helps eliminate lingering odors and moisture.

Pro Tip: MAXYOYO modular sofas are built with easy-access sections, so separating modules slightly makes vacuuming in between a breeze.

2. Spot Cleaning: Act Fast on Spills

Life happens—coffee spills, greasy fingerprints, or a splash of tomato sauce. The key to handling stains is quick action.

What to do:

Blot—don’t rub: Use a clean cloth or paper towel to gently blot the stain. Avoid rubbing, as that can push the stain deeper into the fabric.

Use mild soap & water: For most fresh stains, mix a small amount of mild detergent with lukewarm water. Dampen a cloth and gently dab the stain.

Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals: These can damage the fabric or alter its color.

Pro Tip: Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area of your sofa first, especially if you're cleaning a visible seat cushion or armrest.

3. Cleaning Hidden Areas: Under and Between Modules

Modular sofas, while stylish and flexible, can hide crumbs and dust in the gaps between modules. Luckily, MAXYOYO’s tool-free design makes it easy to separate pieces and clean thoroughly.

What to do:

Separate modules occasionally to clean underneath and between each seat.

Wipe down base structures with a damp cloth to remove dust or buildup.

Check connection points for loose debris or pet hair, especially around Velcro or click-lock mechanisms.

Pro Tip: Doing a full breakdown and clean every 1–2 months helps maintain hygiene and ensures your sofa remains sturdy and fresh.

4. Odor Control: Keep It Smelling Fresh

With regular use, sofas can absorb odors from food, pets, and everyday life. Fortunately, keeping your MAXYOYO modular couch smelling fresh is easy.

Simple tricks:
Baking soda: Sprinkle baking soda over the cushions and let sit for 15–20 minutes before vacuuming to neutralize odors.

Fabric sprays: Use a light, fabric-safe deodorizing spray with essential oils for a quick refresh.

Open airflow: Allow sunlight and fresh air into the room regularly—natural ventilation works wonders.

Pro Tip: For long-lasting freshness, store a few sachets of activated charcoal or cedarwood behind the cushions to passively absorb moisture and odors.

5. Long-Term Protection: Make It Last

Proper cleaning is just one part of the picture—preventative care helps extend your sofa’s life and keeps it looking showroom-fresh.

Consider the following:
Use throws or washable covers: Protect high-use areas like armrests and seat cushions with stylish blankets or overlays.

Keep food & drinks in check: Encourage light snacking and use coasters or trays when eating near the couch.

Protect from sunlight: If your sofa is near a window, use curtains or blinds to prevent fabric fading over time.

Pro Tip: Choose a modular sofa with darker or textured fabrics in high-use homes—they tend to show less dirt between deep cleans.
