Memory Foam Seat Cushions
Memory foam cushions typically offer a firmer, form fitting, sit and won't be just memory
foam, instead they tend to utilize a memory foam core with a wrap to combine the best
of memory foam and other materials. Wraps are commonly made of traditional foam,
fiber, or a gel layer.
How durable is a feather seat cushion?
Full down cushions are unique in that you can easily fluff, and for many refill, the
cushion to regain the desired support and comfort. Many full down cushions allow you
to refill them making them last longer. Partial down cushions durability will be
dependent upon the quality of the foam used. Look for high-resiliency foam for a
longer lasting cushion.
How durable is an innerspring seat cushion?
Like an innerspring mattress, durability will depend largely on the resiliency of the
coils. Heavy gauge steel springs will offer a more durable seat than springs with a
lower gauge. The quality of the foam used to encase the innersprings is also a key
contributor to durability in an innerspring cushion. High-resiliency foam will help ensure
the cushion stands the tests of time.
How durable is a foam seat cushion?
The durability of a foam cushion will depend on the resiliency of the foam. A high-
resiliency 1.8 lb high-density foam cushion with a fiber wrap will last longer than a 1.5 lb
density cushion without a wrap. Look for higher density and high resiliency foam
wrapped in fiber or down for the best quality foam cushions.
How durable is a memory foam seat cushion?
Much like standard foam, memory foam is often reliant upon resiliency for durability.
Memory foam is consistently going to be a high density foam which will help the cushion
last.
