I have a micro fibre couch and I love it! Dog hair comes off easy with vacuuming or wipes right off with a damp cloth. Have had it 6 years and there are no spots on it. If you spill, just get the wet off and use a slightly soapy cloth to clean. Don't rinse the soap off, let it dry then vacuum. All done. For freshness, I dilute Odorban (about 2 ox to a liter of water) and mist it off a couple times of month. Looks just like the day I brought it home.
