Convertible sofas are mostly used for dual purposes and that is the reason why people get them for their homes.
If you notice, that people having kids and those who often receive guests at their place use convertible sofas.
Remember one thing, the more anything is used; more it gets dirty and of course smelly too! There are many other reasons why comfort sleepers used to become smelly.
As you can see the sofa beds, their shape and structure is different from ordinary sofas.
They are manufactured in a specific style, so they can be folded and unfolded.
And the main reason of smelling is the gap or bays that they have.
Protection The first thing you can do is to protect them from getting dirty.
Never put any eatable on the sofa or any liquid because these things fall in slide between the gaps and create bad smell later.
Do not feed your children and especially avoid leaving your child with a feeding bottle on your sofa bed, because children at times stop drinking milk, leave the bottle aside and the milk starts dripping into those hard to reach places.
Cleaning Cleaning is the most essential thing to keep any object last for a long time.
You need to clean your convertible sofa to make it look good and to keep from smelling.
Regular cleaning is necessary for your sofa.
You can daily dust the sofa with soft cloth.
If your sofa smells bad, check the gaps, if there is any piece of bread or a used tissue paper, take it out.
Children usually hide their left over pieces of breads when you force feed them without realizing it's after effects.
I have many times found such things under the sofa or behind the bed.
If you are not satisfied after checking the bay, wash it with a detergent or any cleaner which is specified for your sofa material.
Let the gaps dry after cleaning, do not put the cushions or any throw unless it gets completely dried.
Let the sun light enter your room by opening up the curtains, and give your room fresh air by opening the windows, this will keep you convertible sofa from smelling bad.
Aroma therapy When cleaning use a perfumed detergent for the sofa or wipe a cloth damped with fabric cologne, on it.
Put some phenol balls in the gaps.
Spray perfume on the sofa cushions.
And you can spray some perfume on cotton swabs and put in the bay.
