Safety Information
Please observe the following safety warnings to ensure safe use and longevity of your sofa:
- Keep the sofa out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidents or damage.
- Do not expose the sofa to high heat sources, such as radiators, fireplaces, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can damage the leather.
- Keep the sofa away from open flames to prevent fire hazards.
- Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 480 kg (1058 lbs) to prevent structural damage.
- Avoid standing or jumping on the sofa.
Setup
Your Vente-unique Brenton sofa is delivered largely pre-assembled. The main body of the sofa is already constructed. Only the feet may require attachment.
Attaching the Feet (if applicable)
- Carefully unpack the sofa and ensure all components, including the feet, are present.
- With the help of another person, gently tilt the sofa onto its back or side to access the underside. Place protective material (e.g., a blanket) underneath to prevent damage to the leather or floor.
- Locate the pre-drilled holes or mounting points for the feet on the underside of the sofa.
- Attach each foot securely using the provided hardware (screws or bolts). Ensure they are tightened firmly but do not overtighten.
- Once all feet are attached, carefully return the sofa to its upright position. Ensure it is stable before use.

Operating Instructions
The Vente-unique Brenton sofa is designed for comfortable seating in residential indoor environments.
- Seating: The sofa is designed to comfortably seat up to 4 individuals. Distribute weight evenly across the seating area.
- Placement: Position the sofa on a flat, stable surface. Avoid placing it in areas with excessive humidity or direct sunlight to protect the leather.
- Movement: When moving the sofa, always lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the feet, frame, or floor. It is recommended to have at least two people for moving.
Maintenance and Care
Proper care will help maintain the beauty and longevity of your buffalo leather sofa.
General Cleaning
- Dusting: Regularly dust the sofa with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust buildup.
- Wiping: For general cleaning, wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. Use distilled water to avoid mineral deposits. Immediately dry with a clean, soft cloth.
- Spills: Blot spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain and damage the leather. For stubborn stains, consult a professional leather cleaner.
Leather Care
- Conditioning: Periodically (every 6-12 months), apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying and cracking. Follow the conditioner manufacturer's instructions.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or household detergents, as these can strip the natural oils from the leather and cause irreversible damage.
- Sunlight Exposure: While the leather has an aged appearance, prolonged direct sunlight can cause fading and drying. Position the sofa away from direct sun or use curtains/blinds.

Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Slight wobbling | Uneven floor or loose feet. | Check if the floor is level. Tighten the sofa feet. Use felt pads under feet if necessary. |
| Minor scratches or scuffs on leather | Normal wear and tear, accidental contact. | For minor marks, gently rub with a clean, soft cloth. A small amount of leather conditioner can sometimes help blend them. For deeper scratches, consult a leather repair specialist. |
| Squeaking sounds | Loose frame joints or springs. | Ensure all assembly hardware (if any) is tight. If the issue persists, it may require professional inspection. |
| Leather appears dry or dull | Lack of conditioning, exposure to dry air or sunlight. | Apply a suitable leather conditioner as per maintenance instructions. Increase humidity in the room if the air is very dry. |
