What is Microfiber?
Microfiber is also known as Microsuede, Faux Suede, and DuraPella. It is a synthetic fiber made of nylon that is 1/100th the width of a human hair. It is very soft and comfortable like suede, yet for a fraction of the cost. Microfiber is naturally stain resistant and no stain protection is required nor recommended. Spills will simply wipe off easily, which makes it great for any household. Our Microfiber sofas are by far the most popular choice with our customers. We offer 29 different colors which is a huge selection compared to other companies. Microfiber can be spot cleaned using soap and water, and dry or steam cleaned. The quality of our custom made sofas is unmatched.
Microfibers are tiny fibers that have been slit into millions of finer fibers that are no thicker than one hundredth of a human hair. The special slitting process produces an ultra-fine fiber with wedge shape filaments and a core of nylon. The wedge shape, the nylon core, and the smaller size fiber are the key to their effectiveness. When these tiny fibers are woven together into a cloth through a unique weaving method, the result is a powerful cleaning tool. Each cloth consists of tens of thousands of tiny storage compartments that lift the dirt up, trap the waste and leave a clean streak-free surface. Thy nylon core within the microfiber form tiny cutting edges that break up surface dirt and easily absorb and remove oils and other grimy substances. The only solvent you need is water!
