FoamTouch Upholstery Foam 2" x 24" x 72" High Density Cushion, white

(Maybe they're new since I bought, but I now see there are other sizes available.)I used this to reupholster 6 beat-up Ikea chairs that I got for free (roughly, top: 17", bottom: 13.5, depth: 15.25; 44/35/39 cm). If you measure carefully and layout efficiently, you can cut 4 chair covers in single pieces. The remaining two you can create by gluing together pieces of the leftovers.The 2" thickness of high density, 44 pound-rated, foam is great for firm but comfortable dining chairs. I can't speak to durability, though others have. My only gripe is that this is only available (on Amazon) in 2x24x72. It's possible to do 6 chairs with this size, but there was very little room for mistakes. It would be nice to have wider and/or longer options for a project like this, without having to buy 2 full pieces.To glue, spray each edge that you want to attach with 3M Super 77 adhesive. (Do it outside - it gets all over the place.) I made 3 or 4 sweeps, a few seconds each; you want the edge moistened, but not soaked. Wait 15 seconds. Line up the ends and push together. Alignment doesn't have to be perfect, but if you miss by a lot, you have a few seconds to pull apart and try again. Wait 30 seconds, until they stick together when suspended by one of the pieces. Give it a good smoosh so that there's contact along the whole length of the edge. Let the glue set for at least 30 minutes before using the glued piece on furniture. Works great. Even if you try not to spray yourself or touch any of the wet glue edges, you'll probably need some acetone to clean up your hands.To cut, the pros use specialty foam cutters. I tried their recommendation to substitute with reciprocating meat knives. It works but not well. I discovered it's much easier and more accurate to use a cheap utility knife with a sharp blade. Mark your lines with a Sharpie. Score the line with the knife using light/medium pressure - just a little into the surface, not all the way. Once scored, make 3 or 4 more slightly harder passes with the knife held vertically, separating along the score line with the fingers of your other hand. You'll get a line that's as true as your score line and reasonably clean - certainly good enough for spray gluing edges.I needed about 2 yards of fabric, which I got from a remainders pile for $20. A can of spray paint for the wood, and I have 6 decent dining chairs - much plusher, softer, and more attractive than the original Ikeas - for about $10 each.

This stuff is pretty good. I put one 2" layer on one side of my seat cushions of my old couch. It's pretty firm. It would be nice if it was a little softer, but it's comfortable. I ended up putting it foam side down so it's still offering support and cushion but the original cushion is on top which has a little more give. It has no smell at all which I was really happy about. The 2" thickness is pretty easy to cut with a good pair of strong scissors. I did not need to glue it or anything. I just placed it on top of the cushion under the slip cover and put the slip cover back on which took some effort but was not too hard. My family was really excited about having a comfy couch again. It's hard to get rid of your old couch when your first born was born on it.... When he moves out, he's taking it with him.

What an EXCELLENT BUY!! I have a living room set (chair, loveseat & sofa) every bit of 20 + years old. This set was built for war and its been through at least 5! Although the furniture itself has held up, the seats have become extremely low making it beyond to get up from and sit down on. I decided to buy this foam to use it for support on the sofa. OH MY GOSH!!! what a difference. This foam is QUALITY, HIGH DENSITY AND SUPER FIRM and my Family and I love it! What a difference.We removed the chair cushions (which are in perfect condition) and cut the foam to size using a serrated kitchen knife. It made a light mess and had little to no odor thankfully!We placed it on the base of the seating are which is broken down and dropped to the floor, the put the cushions back on.Our furniture has been resurrected ☺We loved it so much I ended up buying a 2nd piece to complete tge entire set as I initially was only going to use it for the sofa.Im about to buy a 3rd piece as I just finished my kitchen knook and purchased a bench. Its crying for a pad and this will work GREAT!

Ordered foam to replace 3 out of 6 couch cushions. Pillows measure exactly 24x24 so 3 would be 72 total inches.CON: The foam that I received was 69 inches so one of my cushions were 3 inches too short. Had to insert 3 inches of the old foam to fill the insert. Disappointing to say the least.PROs: Now in regards to the foam, it is a great overall value for the thickness. The foam is firm yet it’s comfortable. It does have a little give when sitting on it. Definitely provides support when sitting on. Have to order another one to change out the remaining 3 cushions.. hoping I get the full 72 inches.Gave it 4 stars due to the incorrect length

EXCELLENT, Thank You !
