To get the most accurate measurements for your tapered 2 sides cushions, it is best to use your existing cushion covers where possible. Your old tapered 2 sidesa cushion foam may have become misshapen and not provide accurate measurements.
Carefully measure your existing tapered 2 sides cushions and enter the size in mm, cm or inches following the directions on the foam shape. If you need further help then take a look at our step by step guide on how to measure your tapered 2 sides cushion foam below.
FIRMNESS OPTIONS
Standard Foam
SOFT
With a super soft feel, this quality foam is suitable for occasional use furniture. It is mainly used for back cushions but if you are looking for something very soft for other types of cushions then this is the best option. Not suitable for any seating cushions.
MEDIUM
Our standard medium foam is great for all seating and is widely used in the soft furnishings industry. We recommend the medium option if your cushions are thicker than 7.5cm (3 inches).
FIRM
Much like the standard medium foam, this foam is widely used across the industry. It can feel quite firm as the depth increases so we recommend this option when your cushions are less than 7.5cm (3 inches) thick. This standard foam is suitable for all manner of seating including window seats or dining chair pads.
Premium Foam
SOFT
A very soft foam, its sumptuous feel allows you to sink into the cushion and its quality means that it will always spring back quickly to its original shape. Suitable for most sofa cushions and mattresses.
MEDIUM
Just like the soft grade of foam, the ultimate medium foam is widely used for cushions and mattresses. It provides slightly more support than the soft option so for this reason it is our most popular choice and it is what we recommend for caravans, motor homes and campervans.
FIRM
This is the firmest foam option and provides a very firm level of comfort. It can be used for sofa cushions and mattresses. So if you prefer a firmer cushion and want unrivalled longevity then this is the option to choose.
Luxury Foam
SOFT
Our luxury soft foam is great for all seating if you require a softer level of comfort. The foam is designed to withstand regular daily use so it will keep its shape and comfort for many years. It’s also excellent for mattresses and sofa beds, offering a medium/soft feel.
MEDIUM
The luxury medium foam offers a bit more support than our luxury soft option. It will last longer than the standard foam and is designed for daily use so suitable for most sofas and chairs. It is excellent for all mattresses and is our recommended foam for sofa cushion replacement.
FIRM
The luxury firm foam provides a very firm cushion so if you require lots of support then this is the best option to choose. It’s perfect for raising cushions and we recommend it for window seats and bench cushions that are 7.5cm thick or less. And with unrivalled quality, it lasts longer than the standard foam.
BACK
Our ultimate back foam is most suitable for the backs on your sofa and has a medium/soft feel. And because the backs are not weight bearing, this is where you want the comfort to be.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR TAPERED 2 SIDES CUSHION
For sofa cushion replacement we would recommend using our sofa cushion replacement service.
Firstly, put the existing cushion (cover only ideally) on a flat surface. Pulling the cover tort but not stretching it, measure from one side to the either going from seam to seam and measure as near to the front or back corners as you can (if there is piping then measure inside the piping). If you measure in the middle the material can stretch more so gives a less accurate measurement. Please bear in mind that some covers are wider at the front than at the back (or vice versa), so please check this too.
Next, using the same technique as above, you’ll need to measure from the front edge to the back edge of the cushion.
Lastly, you’ll need to measure the thickness of the cushion. Once again pull the cover tight measure between the seams and record this measurement. We recommend rounding up on all measurements above as the cover will pull the foam in and ensure a snug fit.
Once you have recorded your measurements enter them into our calculator. We would recommend adding the fibre wrap to all cushion replacements as this gives the cushion a fuller finish, the fibre wrap will be in addition to foam so do not reduce the dimensions of the foam to accommodate for this.
If you are not confident about getting an accurate measurement, then why not take advantage of our cushion replacement service?
