hard to replace sofa cushion inserts?
Comments (5)I would first try and contact the manufacturer and see if you can order new inserts for that particular sofa. At least you know they will fit perfectly. You can probably do a google search on the brand name, or call the store where you bought it and have them call the manufacturer for you. You can get foam at craft stores - but it comes in big sheets so you'll need to cut it to match your cushion size. I'd use an electric knife to do it. I had a lady at the craft store tell me to do that once, and I was surprised at how well it worked. If you don't have an electric knife, then use a serrated bread knife. You'll need to wrap the foam in the roll type matting so the fabric doesn't stick to the foam. Definitely a job you can do yourself, but alot of work! You may not be able to find easily foam that is thick enough for cushions. I'd think you'd want at least 4" thick. Upholstry shops can probably get it for you, but would charge probably the same as the manufacturer. I'd first call and see if you can get replacement cushions, and if that's not possible or too expensive, go the DIY route....See MoreSagging couch, what to do?
Comments (8)Contact a furniture re-upholsterer if you cannot open the cushions. If the cushions have zippers - you can go to La-Z-Boy Interiors and purchase additional filling. We purchased our leather living room furniture from them and about a year later we needed to re-fill the cushions. Since we bought the furniture from La-Z-Boy, the filling was free. It's worth a try....See MoreFoam couch cushions versus spring down couch cushions.
Comments (0)I recently bought a couch rom Ralph Lauren and it came with ultra blend couch cushions. The cushions started to flatten. I did;t know a whole lot about couch cushions. they are willing to replace the cushions for more firm cushions, however they do not have the two most firm cushions to sit on in the store for me to try. These are the two cushions I have to choose from. the representative at Ralph Lauren is saying that the Luxury foam fusion is the most firm and the Springdown is 2nd most firm. Please anyone give me advice on what you would pick. I am attaching the discription of both cushions. Please help me decided what to get. I would like something very firm, this couch needs to last us a while, and it is our main couch, so lots of people will be sitting on it, I am looking for most firm couch. However, wouldn't an all foam couch be not so firm and a spiring couch be more firm. Anyway please see attached photos for description....See MoreCouch cushions replaced
Comments (9)So great that you found someone who worked out a solution with you and for you. Lucky you with all those beautiful windows. And while the fabric on your couch isn't to my taste I love the way that colours from it and from your lamp work together. I do love colour in a room....See Morelisaam
