Product Care

At Home Origins, our furniture is built to last. With a bit of care, it’ll stay looking great and working well for years to come.

Handing & Assembly

Whether you're setting up a new piece or making space at home, a few simple steps can make handling your furniture easier and safer.
  • Follow the instructions carefully, and assemble only if you feel confident doing so
  • Use the correct fittings when assembling to avoid trapping or stressing components
  • Check and tighten fixings from time to time to keep everything secure
  • Disassemble when needed, and store all fixings safely for reassembly
  • Take care when lifting or handling to protect both yourself and your furniture
  • Lift furniture rather than dragging to avoid stress on joints and flooring
  • Ask for help when moving larger items to reduce the risk of damage or injury
  • Damage caused by incorrect assembly or use is not covered under warranty

Caring for Wood

Every piece of wood is unique. These simple habits will help preserve its natural beauty.
  • Dust regularly using a soft, slightly damp cloth
  • Clean up any spills immediately to prevent stains
  • Use coasters, placemats and pads under laptops or when writing
  • Avoid harsh cleaning sprays or silicone-based products
  • Do not place plastic or rubber items directly on wooden surfaces
  • Keep furniture away from heat sources like radiators or open fires
  • Try to maintain steady humidity to reduce the risk of warping or cracking
  • Minimise direct sunlight to prevent the wood from fading over time
Caring for Metal
Metal furniture needs little care, but avoiding knocks and scuffs keeps the finish looking its best.
  • Dust using a dry, soft cloth to maintain the finish
  • If needed, wipe gently with a damp cloth and dry straight after
  • Avoid polish or solvents, which may damage protective coatings
Caring for Upholstery
Upholstered furniture is made for everyday comfort, and a little upkeep goes a long way.
  • Vacuum regularly using an upholstery attachment to remove surface dust and crumbs
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, which can cause fabrics to lose colour over time
  • Keep upholstered furniture away from radiators and open flames to protect against heat damage
  • Clean any spills immediately by blotting with a dry, absorbent cloth
  • For deeper cleaning, consult a professional upholstery cleaner
Caring for Melamine
Melamine is durable and easy to care for.
  • Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth and dry afterwards
  • Avoid harsh abrasives or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface
  • Use coasters and placemats to protect from heat and moisture
Caring for Glass Surfaces
Glass surfaces bring light to your space. Keep them at their best with regular, gentle cleaning.
  • Clean with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects directly on the glass
  • Wipe dry to reduce streaks and water spots
Keeping Mirrors Clean
Mirrors reflect best when they’re cared for with a soft touch and the right cleaning routine.
  • Clean with a glass cleaner or mild soapy water
  • Dry with a soft, non-abrasive cloth
  • Avoid any rough materials that could scratch the surface
