Re: how to get stains out of microfiber couches?
What about Resolve carpet cleaner. I tried it after my couch looked pretty bad. I figured it couldn't get any worse.
It has a strong smell, but it worked.
Test a small section first in case for color changes.

Re: how to get stains out of microfiber couches?
what is the stain?
your best bet would be to do a google search on how to remove whatever the stain is. your more concerned about what the stain is not the material on which it sits
No matter what you find though, test a spot on the back or a place you don't see first, and leave it over night to make sure you don't remove the color.
A lot of sofa's come with a sample fabric swatch under one of the cushions that you can cut off. if you have one of those test it on there.
my fav cleaner is 1/2 tsp vinegar mixed with 2/3 cup water, and use a cloth to blot on and a dry cloth the blot off, but again test first!!

Re: how to get stains out of microfiber couches?
I googled how to get throw up out of a microfiber couch, and it came up with baby wipes. Since then, the couch gets cleaned with nothing but baby wipes.

This is what I was going to recommend. Someone got hot pink icing all over my outdoor cushions at DD's birthday party and I used Resolve Spot Magic on it a week after it happened and it's almost gone...to the point where it's only noticeable to me. (I'm going to treat it one more time to see if I can get the last of it for my own sanity. )
I would test in a spot on the under side of a cushion to see if it stains first. My stain was so bad, that it wasn't as if the Resolve was going to make it any worse, so I had nothing to lose and did it without testing first.

Re: how to get stains out of microfiber couches?
I dont know if this will work but try it. I just did it on my kitchen chairs and they came out like new:
1/4 cp of liquid laundry detergent or dish soap
1 cup of warm water
use an electric mixer and mix it together until suds form on top. The suds should be siffer and puffy.
THen using the suds and a damp cloth (I actually used a magic eraser sponge) rub the suds on the area.
Then take a damp cloth wipe the area clean.
I then took a dry paper towel and just dabbed the area dry. Let is sit overnight and it was like new in the AM!
