Let’s face it—the living room takes a beating. It’s where movie nights turn into popcorn ground into the rug, pets leave their paw prints, and remote controls somehow get stickier by the day. From snack spills to surprise guests, this is the space that sees it all.
But here’s the good news: deep cleaning your living room doesn’t have to be an all-day affair. With the right tools (hello, SONO Wipes 👋) and a manageable plan, you can bring your living room back to life without spending your entire weekend scrubbing.
Here’s your no-fuss, step-by-step guide to disinfecting and refreshing your space, the smart way.
🧼 Start with the Surfaces You Touch Most
Not all messes are visible. In fact, the germiest spots in your living room are often the ones you wouldn’t suspect—like that TV remote you handle every day, or the side table that collects coffee mugs, keys, and maybe the odd sneeze.
High-Touch Surfaces to Disinfect Regularly:
-
Remote controls
-
Side tables & coffee tables
-
Doorknobs & light switches
-
Cabinet handles
-
Game controllers & devices
-
Armrests and leather upholstery
What to Use:
SONO Disinfecting Wipes are perfect for high-touch areas—they’re tough on germs (killing 99.9% of bacteria and viruses) but gentle enough for surfaces like wood, plastic, and leather.
🟢 Pro Tip: Keep a pack in your side table drawer or a decorative basket for quick daily wipe-downs.
💡 How to Clean Electronics the Safe Way
Electronics like TVs, soundbars, and game consoles can collect dust and bacteria fast—but using the wrong cleaner can ruin your gear.
Here's how to clean them safely:
-
Turn off and unplug your devices.
-
Gently wipe screens, remotes, and plastic components with a SONO wipe (they’re safe for electronics!).
-
Let surfaces air dry—no need to rinse or buff.
⚠️ Avoid spraying liquid cleaners directly on electronics—this can cause internal damage or streaking.
🛋 Refresh Soft Surfaces Like Couches & Pillows
Your couch might be cozy, but it’s also a magnet for germs, pet hair, and mystery crumbs.
Weekly Deep Clean Tips:
-
Vacuum first: Get into the crevices with a hose attachment.
-
Disinfect fabric-safe areas: Wipe down leather or vinyl furniture with SONO Wipes. For cloth cushions, spot clean and use a fabric spray if needed.
-
Don’t forget throw pillows: If they have removable covers, toss them in the wash.
🟢 Pro Tip: Wipe down armrests and headrests often—they see more skin contact than you think.
🧹 Don’t Skip the Corners & Under the Furniture
Crumbs, dust bunnies, and stray toys love hiding under the couch and behind the TV stand.
To tackle this:
-
Move light furniture (or at least tilt it) to vacuum underneath.
-
Wipe down baseboards and floor trim with disinfecting wipes.
-
Disinfect floor-level surfaces pets or small children might touch (like toy bins or low shelves).
