Cushions don't get the credit they deserve. In many ways, they're cornerstones of comfort in your home. They keep your tush happy and your sofas and chairs looking sharp. Unfortunately, cushions don't last forever. Foam breaks down over time, and like your mattress, they should be replaced every few years to get rid of the dust, allergens, and grimy particles that find their way through the fabric and into the foam and padding. Thinking about having your cushions refilled? The time is now! Here's why. 

1. They'll Look Amazing for the Holidays 

During the winter, we all tend to cozy up inside. Sofas and armchairs get a lot of attention during the colder months, whether you're taking an afternoon nap in the living room, artfully draping a wool blanket over a chair back, or curling up with family for a movie night at home. It's also the time of year that we tend to entertain more guests for Christmas, New Year's, or the other winter holidays that we gather for each year. Refilling your cushions beforehand is a great way to rejuvenate the look and feel of your furniture so you and your guests can get the most of them this year. 

2. Refilled Cushions Are More Comfortable 

You might not think your cushions have lost much comfort over the last five or ten years. Foam and padding break down slowly, so there's rarely a clear moment of realization that your cushions aren't the ones that came with your furniture. But new cushions provide incomparable support and comfort — like a crazy comfortable mattress topper for your sofa or chair. Plus, a cushion that hasn't sagged unevenly tends to provide better support for your hips and back. So if it's been a few years (or more) or your cushions are showing signs of wear, it's probably time to invest in a refill now — and enjoy the benefits during this season of high use. 

3. You'll Prolong the Life of Your Furniture 

Many consumers just opt to replace their furniture when the upholstery reaches the point of no return. The truth is, it's far more economical — for you and the environment — to work with the furniture you already own and love. By having your cushions refilled, you'll enjoy years more use from your sofa, armchair, dining room chairs, or other upholstered furniture. The savings add up dramatically in the long run! 

Keep in mind that having a professional refill your cushions is the way to go, especially if you want quality materials and an ideal fit with your existing cushion covers. There's an art to it that takes years of experience to perfect. To find out more about breathing new life into your cushions, contact us at CushionWorld today!
