I have this couch https://www.mybobs.com/Libre_Sec

Its a mess tho and I have not a clue how I would clean this. Can I just unzip the covers and wash them?

Is it microfiber? I have a different microfiber sofa from Bob's and I've put the seat cushion covers in the washer and dryer with no problems. The back cushions on my sofa don't have removable covers so all I can do with those is wipe them with a damp cloth. Fortunately DD has only ever vomited on the seat cushions!

I'd probably turn them inside out and wash on delicate.  If you live somewhere warm,lay them outside to dry but if not then I'd hang dry them and then maybe just air fluff for a few minutes to get the wrinkles out.

I saw a tutorial somewhere recently about cleaning microfiber and it was really impressive. I can't remember what was used on it but it was a typical househould product.  I'll try to find it.

Mine are cotton twill.  I washed them and then just hung them with pant hangers, the kind with clips.

Nope, I just zip them shut and throw them in the regular wash cycle. Tumble dry on low. They come out good as new.

Mine are chenille and I did it. I thought it was risky but it worked out awesome.
