I have to disagree, PU foam has been the most useless cushion padding I've ever experienced in my life. It goes from firm + comfortable to useless in under a year for me in most cases. I've even tried replacing with the firmest PU foam available, and those attempts last maybe 2 years.
So I deem it as all those words you use, impractical, expensive, unnecessary to use PU.
- CGMthrowaway 1y agoHave you tried a horsehair core? That would last longer
- b112 1y agoI honestly didn't know that was a thing. I tried goose feathers, but I wasn't happy with the outcome. I'll see about the horsehair, thanks.
- CGMthrowaway 1y agoIt was until the mid-20th century, when PU foam became a thing
- mauvehaus 1y agoAn upholster can also usually wash and reuse horsehair when reupholstering a piece of furniture upholstered with horsehair. It's very resilient stuff(ing). You can also get horsehair fabric for upholstery purposes; it apparently wears like cast iron. Am not an upholsterer, but I work with one somewhat regularly when a client wants an upholstered piece.
