About Foam R Us

Foam R Us in Queens stands out from typical upholstery shops by combining furniture retail, foam and mattress products, and reupholstery services under one roof. With a 4.6 rating across 18 reviews, it's the most reviewed shop in this group, which means the rating reflects genuine, repeated customer experience rather than a handful of transactions. Queens is one of New York City's most diverse and densely populated boroughs, and a shop that handles everything from custom-cut foam to full furniture pieces serves a wide cross-section of homeowners, renters, and small business owners. The breadth here is a practical advantage for customers who need more than one thing solved at once.

Services & Process

Foam R Us sells and custom-cuts foam for a wide range of applications, including sofa cushions, chair pads, headboards, and specialty projects where standard sizes don't fit. Their mattress offerings include foam options that can be sized to fit platform beds, RV berths, or non-standard bed frames common in older Queens apartments. On the reupholstery side, they handle fabric replacement on sofas, chairs, and other upholstered pieces, often pairing the fabric work with fresh foam to fully restore a piece's comfort and appearance. The retail side means customers can also pick up materials for DIY projects without committing to a full service job.

Service Area

Foam R Us serves Queens and the surrounding New York City area, including customers from Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Long Island who are looking for custom foam or quality upholstery work. The shop's location in Queens makes it accessible from multiple directions, whether you're coming from Flushing, Jamaica, Astoria, or Nassau County. It's a practical option for anyone in the outer boroughs who needs foam products or furniture restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Foam R Us cut foam to a custom size for my sofa cushions?
Yes, custom foam cutting is one of their core offerings. Bring the dimensions of your cushion or the old foam insert, specify the density and firmness you prefer, and they'll cut it to fit. This is much faster than ordering custom foam online and waiting for shipping.
What foam density should I choose for sofa cushions?
Higher-density foam, typically 1.8 to 2.5 pounds per cubic foot, holds its shape better and lasts longer under daily use. Softer, lower-density foam feels plush initially but compresses faster. For heavy daily use, firmer high-density foam is usually the better investment.
Does Foam R Us sell mattress foam for non-standard bed frames?
Yes, custom-size foam mattresses are a practical solution for platform beds, Murphy beds, RV sleeping areas, and older apartments with non-standard bed frames. They can cut foam to your specific dimensions and help you choose the right thickness and firmness.
Can I buy foam for a DIY upholstery project at Foam R Us?
Absolutely, this is one of the advantages of a shop that operates as both a retailer and a service provider. You can purchase cut-to-spec foam and fabric to handle the job yourself, or ask questions about the process before deciding whether to do it yourself or have them do it.
How do I know when it's time to replace my sofa cushion foam versus reupholstering the whole piece?
If the fabric is still in decent shape but the cushions have gone flat or uncomfortable, foam replacement alone can make the piece feel new again without the cost of full reupholstery. If the fabric is worn or stained along with the foam, it usually makes sense to do both at the same time.
What's the typical turnaround time for a reupholstery job in Queens?
Standard jobs like a single armchair or dining chairs often take one to two weeks. Larger pieces or projects requiring special-order fabric can take three weeks or more. It's always worth asking about current lead times when you call, since busy periods can affect scheduling.
