Hi Melissa,

Thanks for reaching out about this, we're happy to assist!

The Pico collection is one of our hottest sellers at Apt2B right now; awesome choice! It features hand-made in the USA construction, 2.0 density foam cushioning and a lifetime guarantee on the frame & workmanship.

Straw is also a popular fabric choice because of it's textured look with many different hues and tones which serve to "hide" simple spills and dirt very well. It's also stain resistant AND dry/spot cleanable.

To offer an alternative to the textured look straw has, our Microfiber fabrics are extremely cleanable and stain resistant (even more so than Straw). The only thing to caution as it pertains to microfibers are that, while easy to clean, they "show" any sort of spill or smudge much more readily that Straw would. Here is a sample of our Buckwheat Microfiber for your reference:

We hope this information is helpful and please let us know if you have any other questions, we're happy to assist you further :)
