Yeah, I was thinking about that Huck. How do you test the seat foam before they put it in though? I would hate to have them install seat foam, and then have it not fill out the upholstering properly, and mostly be uncomfortable to sit in. The upholsterer would probably be a little peeved if I told him/her that I didn't like the work, and then told them to either redo it or take the foam out so that I could take my business elsewhere.
I really need to find a good upholsterer, probably by word of mouth. The only problem is that I don't know anyone who has had anything reupholstered
