"Always start by vacuuming your couch first," says Alicia Sokolowski, founder and CEO of AspenClean. Just about all the experts consulted for this piece urge you not to skip this crucial step-with one important exception to the vacuum-first approach: Leather couches. Ryan Knoll, owner of Phoenix-based company Tidy Casa, says that "the best way to clean a leather couch is by starting off with dusting it. Use a microfiber cloth to wipe down the surface of the leather to remove any dust or debris."
If you're not the biggest fan of cleaning in general, factor that in as you consider the type of couch you'll purchase next. "Microfiber will honestly be one of the easiest materials to clean and maintain," says one expert, highlighting its advantages for those looking for low-maintenance options.
