How To Choose High-Density Upholstery Foam For Cushions
Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2018 9:54 am
This spring, I decided to redo my couch cushions myself and selected high-density upholstery foam for cushions based on its thickness. I selected 4-inch thick foam for bottom cushions and three-inch-thick foam for the backrest.
Around 35lb high-density upholstery foam that fits your budget is good for bottom cushions. The bottom must be firmer compared to the backrest, as one has to sit on it for a long duration.
I chose two-inch thick memory foam topper on the top for making the backrest as comfortable as possible. This was also done to bridge the gap between the cushions, and these can also be rolled up for extra storage.
The foam can be purchased in standard mattress sizes and further it can be cut using an electric carving knife. According to me, one twin mattress can be cut into the two V-berth cushions. I used queen-sized mattresses or foam to create my two quarter-berth cushions and upholstered them with a soft covering that goes well with my home interior.
