5. Famahana olana iraisana

While the EKTORP sofa is built for durability, you may encounter minor issues. Here are some common concerns and their solutions:

• Cushions Losing Shape: Regularly fluff and rotate both seat and back cushions. The high-resilience foam is designed to regain shape, but consistent use in one area can cause temporary compression.
• Fabric Wrinkling After Washing: Re-fit the cover while it is slightly damp. This helps the fabric stretch and conform to the sofa's shape, reducing wrinkles as it dries.
• Squeaking Sounds: Ensure all assembly bolts are securely tightened. If squeaking persists, it may indicate an issue with the frame. Contact IKEA customer support if tightening bolts does not resolve the issue.
• Tasy: Address spills immediately. For stubborn stains, consult a professional upholstery cleaner or refer to IKEA's specific fabric care guides available online.
