Comments (2)Trying to get a claim on fabric (or leather) wear is difficult at best and will require the utmost in diplomacy to even hope at accomplishing anything. What type of wear problems are you experiencing? Is the fabric worn through? Severity of wear will be a factor. Contact your store first. I suggest you do this in writing, attaching several good photographs that distinctly show the issues. If they cannot see the problem in the photo details, then you'll like have no further avenues to pursue. Assuming the wear is visible in the photos, then you need to get your dealer to go to bat for you - and the way to do this is to express your loyalty to your selling dealer and to be polite and respectful. Explain to them what YOU would want as a satisfactory solution (which is not going to be a brand new sofa - don't even try for that). I would suggest something alone the lines of you buy the new fabric, they cover the cost of recover be it at King Hickory or locally. This is not a warranty issue, cover wear is excluded from every upholstery maker I know of, so if you get any kind of resolution response realize its a goodwill gesture on the part of the dealer and the manufacturer. If you've bought from this store before, they'll be more apt to try to do something for you if you are a repeat customer. Give it a try, be firm but not adversarial. Don't be disappointed if you don't get very far, its not often that the dealer and manufacturer will remedy a fabric wear issue.

Comments (4)I am very familiar will all three companies. You could not go wrong with any of them. I spent some time at the April High Point Show comparing Century Upholstery and Taylor King. In as much as Century purchased Hancock and Moore and Taylor King which was a division of Hancock and Moore and Taylor King was not purchased by Century I was curious to compare Taylor King and Century. They are both well made but Taylor King was crisper and had superior tailoring. I do think Taylor King is for sale and I think Century should take a look at them. I would also say that Taylor King had the best looking upholstery product I saw at the show....See MoreVanguard/Wesley Hall/Taylor King/Ethan Allen sofa opinion?
Comments (22)Loving my gorgeous Crypton Nomad Snow fabric on my reupholstered family room sofa. My husband spilled red wine on it about 3 weeks after we got it home <aaaahhhh!>. I cleaned it immediately with a very light spray of hydrogen peroxide and then a light spray of a fabric cleaner, wiped with a dampened face cloth. The wine came out immediately. No sign of it now. We've also had numerous dirty dog paw prints that came out easily as well. BARGAIN HUNTING TIP - After scouring the internet, I found a GREAT DEAL on the Nomad Snow fabric online at Hobby Lobby for $13/yard! That's the sale price, but the regular price is still ridiculously cheap at $22/yd (it goes on sale often). Bought an extra bolt just to have for future projects. If your are in the market for a new upholstered piece of furniture, it's worth finding out the manufacturer's COM (customer's own material) pricing and supplying your own fabric. I'm in the process of doing that now with a new living room sofa. Also, if you find a really reasonably priced reupholsterer, a little know secret is that most manufacturer's will ship their furniture unupholstered, covered in a muslin base and ready to be upholstered. Happy decorating all!...See Morenormal cushion Taylor king?
Comments (3)Hi MM, I purchased a Taylor King sofa too. Besides the damaged on the back of my sofa, my back cushions look so wrinkled! I went to two upholsterers they could not fixed them. I did put a solid piece of form on the bottom of each cushion, manipulated the filling to the top, only helped a little. My next try is a streamer. As far a the cushion hanging over the sofa you have to show them this issue. I do not know what happened to Taylor King, was such a good company. You and I are not the only ones with issues. Good Luck...See Morejohn_wc
