The Restoration Hardware Fabric Coffee + Coke Challenge

We have been prepping for a presentation for our clients and while going through all of our fabrics, we were chatting about how much we loved the Perennials collection at Restoration Hardware.

We want to showcase how amazing it is & demonstrate to our clients that it can withstand all that real life throws at it - so our team had the brilliant idea to put the RH claims of water and stain resistance to the test and thus the little impromptu RH Fabric Coffee & Coke Challenge with Casey! *also known to our team as “lunch time interruptions” :)

Initially when Casey poured the coke, it just rolled right off of the fabric into the sink!
And as you’ll see, the coffee hung on a little longer, but it didn’t go through the fabric and rinsed right off with water. But let’s be real, we don’t always catch stains right away, so check out the video below to see what happens next after we let it sit a while!
Let’s just say for us, we’re not only convinced, but are BIG fans of this fabric.

Red wine, juice, kid’s milk, kid’s fingers, dirt, you name it - this fabric is the ultimate family friendly fabric. When we are suggesting that our client’s invest in quality pieces, we want to choose fabrics that will stand the test of time with that investment!

When looking at fabrics for your own upholstery, here are a few points to think on-

  1. What kind of maintenance is this fabric material going to be?

  2. What color is best for our family lifestyle? [We suggest sticking to neutrals and play with color on pillows!]

  3. Is it worth it to spend more on quality for the long haul vs. having to replace in 5 years?

  4. What kind of material feel fits for you family - natural, synthetic, soft, woven etc.?
