The Foam Store

Bought foam for a furniture redo. They were helpful and courteous. I wasn’t sure exactly what I needed for my project, but they helped me figure it out. Also — like supporting locally-​owned businesses!

Had new foam cut for bottom sofa cushions. Took the old foam in the Thursday before Labor Day weekend. Was told the new foam wouldn’t be ready until the following Tuesday, but got a call on Friday that they were ready. They fit perfectly and I was very happy to have them early. Owner could not have been friendly or more helpful.

Yep… I decided to do a DIY project. I have a large dog that doesn’t believe in personal space. When we sit out on the balcony, he always wants to squeeze into my chair with me. So I thought… WHY NOT MAKE A LARGE SEAT… duuuuuh :)
The project begins. after recruiting my pops of course! :) We found pallets, painted them an espresso color, nailed them together and TADA! Then the challenge… the cushion. 40×48 is not a standard size. I’m not one to half a** it, so I did my research and ordered a custom cover on Etsy (pricey). Etsy cover lady suggested I buy the foam myself separately rather than her send it all complete… duuuuuh :)
Go figure, none of the home craft stores do custom cuts. I was then recommended to The Foam Store! I ordered it Monday afternoon and had it ready the next morning. Rhea was so helpful and friendly on the phone. She suggested which foam to go with and why. When I went to pick up the foam, Johnny was there and had it rolled and ready for me at the door. I was literally in and out in less than 5 minutes.
I highly recommend this store for all your foam, cushion, chair pad needs.
***NOTE: They also ship their products!

I visited this store yesterday to obtain one or two small pieces. The owner was rude throughout the entire 7 – 8 minute exchange. I was given grief for not calling first and not researching their hours of operation (this was my first visit to the store), It got worse from there. His approach and responses to my simple questions of size, cost, availability etc were rude and loud. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. He certainly gave the impression that he was not interested in any business from me.
I am baffled as to why this man appeared provoked from the onset of our interaction, why I was supposed to know his business and how he operates his business and why he was offended by simple questions any customer might have presented.

I needed a huge amount of foam to make loads of costumes (Minions from Despicable Me) for a charity function. It took me forever to figure out where to get foam quickly and at a reasonable price, and I’m so glad I finally found this place! I was able to pick up my foam the day after ordering (make sure you order it before 4 if you want to do that). I know they deliver too, but I happen to live close by so I haven’t needed that. Johnny and Rhea, the owners, are very nice people, and are the ones that pick up the phone when you call and help you when you come into the store — I like that.
Anyway, I have since turned the costume making into a little business on the side, and I have this very efficient and responsive little store to thank for it. I’m sure I’ll be back many times!

Just got my God-​awful Ikea Ektorp couch cushions replaced. Brought them here, and they custom cut some great foam cushions and stuffed them back in the old slip covers. Took only a couple days and is exponentially cheaper than a new couch. The couple that own the place are really nice as well.
