Dinette Cushions

I have been underwhelmed with the cushions in the dinette.  They seem to bottom out when sat upon.  I am of normal weight and I think the foam inside is not of the highest quality.  Will probably break down rather quickly.  Went to an upholsterer yesterday and had a very informative discussion about different quality of foam.  However, when he gave me an estimate to just cut new foam and use the original covers I was floored.  Only wanted $480.  to stuff 4 cushions.  Anybody restuff theirs and is this price out of line?

Ouch.  Well if your comfortable, that's what matters.  Foam is outrageously expensive.  Got a second quote and within $20.  Gonna stay with what we have.  $400. to sit is too expensive for an occasional use.  Oh well.  Gonna wait till gas hits .35/gallon and then gonna go for it.  Safe Travels.

You know, sleeping on the floor might not appeal to some but I have much more room down there than I had on my half of the queen bed and it's VERY comfortable. And my wife enjoys having the entire queen bed to herself (we kept the original mattress but put a memory foam topper on it). We chose the most expensive foam for my "floor bed" and very durable fabric covering. Having it "hinged" in the middle allows us to fold it up and put it on top of the queen bed during the day. The only negative is that it takes me a bit longer to get up off of the floor at the age of 66 than it used to when I was younger. But all-in-all, we've found this to be a good solution to the sleeping issue for us.

Thanks.  Will contact them tomorrow.  Safe Travels
