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.

10/10 couch was flat and had no type of support after putting these in it made my couch look high end and super comfortable!

My couch is 25 years old but is in excellent cosmetic shape and I still like it. Unfortunately, the springs have lost much of their support. When sitting upon it, one would sink down a little too much, making it a little harder to get up, especially for older people. I inserted some thin plywood and that helped a bit was too hard by itself so I cut up a mattress topper and placed that on top of the plywood (then the couch cushions). That was better but not great. Since mattress toppers are usually made of some sort of memory foam, we were still sinking into the couch a little too much. Thus, thought I would try this polyurethane foam. Although not perfect, I have found this foam to be a marked improvement. I bought the 3" but may at some point try the 2" or even 1". Having used this foam every day since it was delivered, I can say there has definitely been an improvement in comfort and support, which is exactly what I wanted. It was very easy and quick to cut (I used a combination of scissors and electric knife). Only took a few moments. As for the product itself, I have no complaints. My only issue is how it works for me and my couch. Entering through the front door, the couch is one of the first things one sees and with this white foam elevating the cushions was quite noticeable. My couch has rather a busy floral pattern and fortunately I had a sheet I was not using with a similar pattern. Wrapping that sheet around the foam and tucking it in has improved the visual quite a bit, but it is still obvious that something is underneath the cushions. For now, I am getting more comfortable with the look and am quite pleased with the added comfort and support. Am considering trying some of the 1" or 2" foam at some point but expect that I would have to sacrifice some of the support with thinner foam. Not ready to try that yet. Just pleased to be getting more life out of a couch we like. It is much better than it was.

I purchased this foam to build a bed for camping. I was not sure what thickness to order so I went with the 6" because I thought it would be the most comfortable. This foam is a very firm foam so it was not as comfy as I hoped for. The 6" thick piece is too thick for comfort in my opinion. I ended up cutting it right in half for two 3" thick pieces and that is much more confortable for us. I think for a bed situation like for camping a 4" thick piece would have worked the best. Now I have an extra 6" piece that I am able to use in the studio to absorb sound. That was an expensive mistake to make and I think I learned my lesson. All in all at the end of the day, this foam is super easy to work with and is of good quality.

This product is fantastic! My 5 year old sofa looks and feels brand new. I used a 10” fillet knife to slice approx 3-4 inches off, wrapped in batting to smooth the edges (within the slipcover). If you have a firm mattress, this feels the same. I will definitely buy this foam again but I have a feeling it might be 6-7 years before I need to! Note: some posts say there was a horrible smell - mine had none.

It took 2 weeks to arrive, but it was worth it. I used utility knife and within 60 minutes my couch looked and feels like new. Highly recommended

Bought this for my wife’s side of the bed that the mattress is failing there and only there, modern crap mattress. Anyways she loves it a lot, it’s firm and super comfortable. Way better than those cheap things you buy at home hardware, Canadian tire or Walmart. I think we’ll order the 1 inch thick stuff to redo our old kitchen chairs too.

Bought this for my 5 year old when he went through a phase of sleeping in his closet (because it had cool string lights and wall decals in it). I layered a thing yet fluffy blanket on top of it and it did the trick, my son had no complaints.
