DVA Product Care Guide
Proper care of your furniture will ensure its durability and high quality.
- Do not sit on the arms of chairs/couches, or apply excessive pressure, as they are not designed for this purpose and it will damage the product.
- Please refrain from sitting on the tables as this will cause uneven table tops.
- Flip Top Tables – Due the nature of the product (being flipped and locked into place for easy nesting purposes) the units do require regular maintenance
We suggest a regular check-up and tighten of any components that may have worked loose from movement.
Also due to the product features, it is not always possible for the tables to line up as a perfect straight top when joined together. You may purchase an additional table top joiner should this be something you require for your particular environment.
- Do not let children or animals jump or climb on the furniture.
- Please ensure that furniture is lifted, not dragged, when being moved (furniture with castors excepted) but ensure castors are unlocked before moving mobile furniture.
- Exposure to extreme heat or cold can damage the product, as can exposure to prolonged sunlight.
- Fabric furniture should be vacuumed and cleaned regularly. We recommend a furniture cleaning specialist should be used to clean your furniture on occasion.
For cleaning care and advice for a specific fabric or material used in your product please contact our sales team on (08) 9206 2257 or at sales@dvawa.com.au.
