I've recently 'inherited' a rather nice 3-piece suite, its one of the early Ligne Roset Togo sets (I think my folks bought it in about 1982, and while it is all very comfortable, it's lost some of its er...plumpness.

Does anyone know if its possible to have the foam innards repaired replaced or just generally brought back to their former state? Part of me is scared of asking as if it is possible the cost will probably only be marginally less than buying a new set.

I think 'upholsterer' is the thing to look for.

But yes, unless your stuff is a valuable antique, it will probably be cheaper to burn it and buy new, unfortunately.

Seeing as it was made well before the fire regs for flammability etc, I don't think that would be too difficult!!!

We had foam from here - did a very good job and half the price of the locals
