Recliner upholstery

Never had a recliner done - but have had a sofa and matching oversize chair done. Ran me $700 for the sofa and $400 for the chair. Plus the cost of the fabric which was another $800.

First impressions was that it was a nice job. Really though I never was really happy with it. Maybe I should have had the exposed wood refinished, insisted on a higher grade cushion/foam - I dunno. Just not thrilled with it. The shop came highly recommended - came out gave the estimate, picked up and delivered the furniture.

It's kinda like having your car repainted. Looks nice but deep down you know it's just not the same.

Bottom line is I don't think I will ever have another one done. Will just buy new instead.
