## Description

High density foam has a compression rate of 44lbs. It features the perfect amount of cushioning and stiffness. Its soft but still holds its firmness and support for an individual to sit on it without compressing the foam too much. Compression = firmness compression (not density) is what determines firmness. If you dont want a cushion thats hard as a rock or a mattress that sinks when you sit on it, you have to check the compression or ild number. Compression means the number of pounds necessary to compress a piece of foam 25% and still bounce back to the original thickness. For example, a 4" thick piece of foam that requires 33 lbs. To pack it down 1" and have it return to its full 4" thickness has a 33 lb. Compression rating or (ild) -indention load deflection. - all foam sheets are sold per sheet - not per yard. Do not open with a box cutter. Use a ball point pen or a pencil. Start by making a little incision and break it from there - durability : will last 7 to 10 yearshigh density foam is used for firmness yet relaxable cushion. It has high quality compression and material to keep it lasting for longer periods of time even when harsh weight is applied.

Review: Great, but other size options would be nice - (Maybe they're new since I bought, but I now see there are other sizes available.) I used this to reupholster 6 beat-up Ikea chairs that I got for free (roughly, top: 17", bottom: 13.5, depth: 15.25; 44/35/39 cm). If you measure carefully and layout efficiently, you can cut 4 chair covers in single pieces. The remaining two you can create by gluing together pieces of the leftovers. The 2" thickness of high density, 44 pound-rated, foam is great for firm but comfortable dining chairs. I can't speak to durability, though others have. My only gripe is that this is only available (on desertcart) in 2x24x72. It's possible to do 6 chairs with this size, but there was very little room for mistakes. It would be nice to have wider and/or longer options for a project like this, without having to buy 2 full pieces. To glue, spray each edge that you want to attach with 3M Super 77 adhesive. (Do it outside - it gets all over the place.) I made 3 or 4 sweeps, a few seconds each; you want the edge moistened, but not soaked. Wait 15 seconds. Line up the ends and push together. Alignment doesn't have to be perfect, but if you miss by a lot, you have a few seconds to pull apart and try again. Wait 30 seconds, until they stick together when suspended by one of the pieces. Give it a good smoosh so that there's contact along the whole length of the edge. Let the glue set for at least 30 minutes before using the glued piece on furniture. Works great. Even if you try not to spray yourself or touch any of the wet glue edges, you'll probably need some acetone to clean up your hands. To cut, the pros use specialty foam cutters. I tried their recommendation to substitute with reciprocating meat knives. It works but not well. I discovered it's much easier and more accurate to use a cheap utility knife with a sharp blade. Mark your lines with a Sharpie. Score the line with the knife using light/medium pressure - just a little into the surface, not all the way. Once scored, make 3 or 4 more slightly harder passes with the knife held vertically, separating along the score line with the fingers of your other hand. You'll get a line that's as true as your score line and reasonably clean - certainly good enough for spray gluing edges. I needed about 2 yards of fabric, which I got from a remainders pile for $20. A can of spray paint for the wood, and I have 6 decent dining chairs - much plusher, softer, and more attractive than the original Ikeas - for about $10 each.
Review: Great support - 10/10 couch was flat and had no type of support after putting these in it made my couch look high end and super comfortable!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how do i cut this foam?**
A: Sign me up as also an electric knife user when I'm cutting foam.  The electric knife is much like a bread knife, serrated, long & narrow. Not so sure any kind of wood saw would work, but what might also work if you're careful is a soldering iron. Make a line with a felt tip pen to be your guide for a straight line.  If you don't have an electric knife, you might try finding one at Goodwill or the likes.  It isn't until you've cooked the fam a few turkeys or big roasts you find out what a labor saving device it really is!

**Q: What would be good, medium or high density, for use on a couch to increase the height and comfort, so I can sleep on it after my hip replacement?**
A: I have this answer foe sure I used high density I love it but it is a little too firm after a hip replacement use the medium you pick the height by the thickness of the foam you buy. I sleep on it every night because of a bad back. It has been a year and it is still perfect

**Q: If I put the 2' foam under my current cusions will it make them firmer and add to the height?  Also, will the  foam show when you look at the couch?**
A: That's just what I did with the foam...added it the family room and basement couch cushions.  It did add height & made the cushion a lot firmer.  I used my current couch cushions as a template & cut the foam just slightly smaller (probably less than 1/4 inch smaller) so that it would be easier to stuff the new cushion in with the old & so that it wouldn't show.

**Q: How long does it take the smell to go away?**
A: Mine both definitely smelled strongly

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great support
*by I***A on January 21, 2026*

10/10 couch was flat and had no type of support after putting these in it made my couch look high end and super comfortable!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well worth such a modest investment
*by C***E on June 21, 2023*

My couch is 25 years old but is in excellent cosmetic shape and I still like it. Unfortunately, the springs have lost much of their support. When sitting upon it, one would sink down a little too much, making it a little harder to get up, especially for older people. I inserted some thin plywood and that helped a bit was too hard by itself so I cut up a mattress topper and placed that on top of the plywood (then the couch cushions). That was better but not great. Since mattress toppers are usually made of some sort of memory foam, we were still sinking into the couch a little too much. Thus, thought I would try this polyurethane foam. Although not perfect, I have found this foam to be a marked improvement. I bought the 3" but may at some point try the 2" or even 1". Having used this foam every day since it was delivered, I can say there has definitely been an improvement in comfort and support, which is exactly what I wanted. It was very easy and quick to cut (I used a combination of scissors and electric knife). Only took a few moments. As for the product itself, I have no complaints. My only issue is how it works for me and my couch. Entering through the front door, the couch is one of the first things one sees and with this white foam elevating the cushions was quite noticeable. My couch has rather a busy floral pattern and fortunately I had a sheet I was not using with a similar pattern. Wrapping that sheet around the foam and tucking it in has improved the visual quite a bit, but it is still obvious that something is underneath the cushions. For now, I am getting more comfortable with the look and am quite pleased with the added comfort and support. Am considering trying some of the 1" or 2" foam at some point but expect that I would have to sacrifice some of the support with thinner foam. Not ready to try that yet. Just pleased to be getting more life out of a couch we like. It is much better than it was.
