How To Fix A Sagging Couch | How To Repair A Sagging Sofa | Couch Cushion Stuffing

Learn how to fix a sagging couch quickly and affordably, and with minimal supplies.

We bought our sofa brand new, and within 3 months it was sad, saggy, and uncomfortable. When I sat down on the edge all I could feel was the beam driving into my legs. And it was so saggy that it was almost embarrassing to me.

At first I was very upset. After all, I had done my research before buying a couch. I knew that wood was better than metal, that you wanted the couch to be screwed together and not glued. I had thought of everything...except for the cushions. We special ordered our couch in down, waited 3 months for it to arrive, and signed a form that prevented us from returning it. It had been so comfortable at the store, and I felt tricked. And all I could find myself thinking was how I couldn't wait till I can get a new one.

Then I remembered that coach cushions are really just like giant pillows. And they sell furniture foam at the hardware store. And just like that, my hope was reignited. A little bit of furniture foam, polyfil, and elbow grease later, and we had ourselves a brand new couch.

Over all I was VERY happy with how it turned out. It's been so much more comfortable and attractive, and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.

Great video. I plan to do the very same to my daughter-in-law’s down couch. A trick I learned along time ago is to use a dry cleaners plastic bag and put your foam cushion in it with the fill on top. Then it’s easier to slide it into the cover. After inside just ripped the cleaners bag and remove it. Waalaa!!

This was a great video voice clear, good humor. I was actually looking for something else, but I watched your entire video. Good job! I applaud women taking care of their home. I’m a 68 year old grandmother and I’ve always fixed it myself!

Looks so much better, I need to reupholster my cushions as they've frayed now but it's a great frame shape and goes so nicely with my living room that I don't want to replace it.

Oh my gosh thank you for this video! I was stressing over our new couch sagging so quickly! Will definitely be doing this to ours! ❤

You can store the extra poly fill in one of those large plastic ziplock storage bags that have the vacuum hole for removing the extra air from the bag. Great way to store extra poly without taking up much space.

This video was most definitely helpful. I was about to chuck my couch in the garbage! That beam against the back of my thighs was torture! Today I am steaming the stationary parts of the sofa. I will was my cushion covers again. And hope I'm happy once I do the foam and stuffing you suggest. Thanks so much!

You can buy furniture fabric stain protection spray to prevent staining

I use an electric carving knife. Cuts through the foam like butter!

Hi Abigail. How are the sofa cushions holding up and how is the comfort level now that you have been sitting on them for a few months?

[LeeAsh]

You also could have covered the foam with a twin fitted sheet in same color as sofa tightening with large safety pins
