Question 1

Which materials are best for patio furniture?

Accepted Answer

Patio furniture must be able to withstand all elements — rain, snow and sun. When looking for outdoor replacement cushions, you may notice that many suppliers use polyester pillow fiber for their outdoor cushions. Although polyester fiber is inexpensive, it becomes compressed and distorted in a short time. FoamOrder.com’s outdoor, dry-fast reticulated foam is resilient and durable. The foam in your new outdoor furniture cushions should last up to 15 years with normal use. It has porous properties, which let water flow through it, thus reducing latent water and moisture. That also significantly reduces the chances for mildew and mold. Our outdoor foam for patio cushions comes in three firmness options: medium, medium-firm and firm. We also offer a broad range of weather-resistant, durable Sunbrella fabrics to keep your patio cushions looking modern and stylish. With FoamOrder.com patio cushions, your patio swing, seats, chairs and other patio furniture will stay plush and comfortable all year long.

Question 2

Should I order Dacron (polyester) batting with my patio cushions?

Accepted Answer

We recommend Dacron batting for indoor or outdoor patio cushions, generally with a book wrap. Dacron batting gives patio furniture cushions a full, comfortable and rounded look. Without Dacron, your patio cushions may show wrinkles in the fabric. Dacron provides an additional layer of comfortable padding between the foam and cover, making your patio cushions as comfortable as possible. If you really don’t want batting, then order your foam slightly thicker (¼-inch to ½-inch) than the case to make sure it fills in as much as possible.

Question 3

What are some tips for cushioning outdoor furniture?

Accepted Answer

Outdoor furniture can often be tricky as it must balance the features of being able to dry quickly while still maximizing comfort. First, outdoor cushions need to drain moisture and liquid from rain and dew quickly and fully. If your outdoor cushions don’t drain properly, they will quickly get moldy or build up mildew. In addition, your outdoor cushions should be just as comfortable as your indoor cushions despite using materials that drain properly. To properly make comfortable outdoor furniture cushions, you should always use reticulated (also known as dry-fast) foam, which has large “pores” to easily drain rain water and other moisture. While many manufacturers use sub-standard and inexpensive outdoor foam, FoamOrder.com offers three high-grade levels of outdoor foam comfort (medium, medium-firm and firm).A second problem many homeowners experience with outdoor cushions are back cushions that don’t hold their shape and are too fluffy. We recommend using soft or medium outdoor foam for your back cushions surrounded by a soft quick-draining layer of polyester or Dacron batting. If your existing outdoor furniture isn’t comfortable, you can replace your cushions quickly and easily with our high-grade outdoor foam in your preferred firmness. Just select your foam type and enter the custom dimensions. Your new custom cushions will arrive in just a few weeks.
