It would be great if I noticed all spills and got them up right away. But I don't. So now I have grungy couches. Microfiber Couches.
And I am afraid to touch them. What, pray tell, can I use to clean them with? Just hot water? Regular steam cleaning solution? What should I absolutely not use?
I appreciate the help!
I was given a cleaning kit with mine. Two different cleaning solutions, a blotter sponge, and a brush. Maybe you can find something like this online?

I used Woolite foam upholstery cleaner for mine. I'd clean it with a sponge, let it dry, then brush it with a fine bristle brush or a fluffy towel to soften up the nap.

Well, one of the dc got chocolate on ours the day after we got it. Water worked better than anything else, but that was spot cleaning. I haven't attempted to clean the whole thing. Guess that wasn't much help was it?

A cleaning kit? That would have been nice.
Alright, now I really don't know what to do.

I seem to remember one coming with ours.
Not that I read it, of course!
Our couch is old and has had lots of spills. I just clean it with the rug cleaning machine now. I've given up on trying to keep it looking nice and have settled on keeping it smelling clean....

I'd call the store where you got it and ask them.
