Check out this short video clip from TVs The Balancing Act. Host Kathy Peterson and SureFit’s Sherly Boltze demonstrate just how easy it is to fit a SureFit slipcover. What really impressed me was how quickly they managed to transform their old leather couch into a modern and stylish new design.
But the real bonus it that it’s machine washable – perfect if you have messy little tots! Sheryl says, “I have a 5 year old at home and practically wash mine every month”.
If you think your couch could do with a quick and simple makeover then watch the video and then read our review below. Be sure to make your purchase online at SureFit’s safe and secure website so that you can qualify for the generous discount that we have negotiated with them. For full details, see below.
Fabric
This bestselling slipcover from SureFit looks and feels much like suede, but has several advantages over the real thing. It’s made from a blend of polyester and Spandex, which means it should give a snug fit and conform to the contours of your furniture.
It also means it’s machine washable, so it’s no hassle to keep it clean. In between washes, pet hairs and lint can easily be vacuumed off.
Fit
The loveseat size is designed to fit seats up to 50” wide, with arms up to 14” wide, with box cushions. The separate seat construction means there are two pieces. One covers the main body of the loveseat, while the other section holds the seat cushions.
Having the cushions in a separate cover looks tidy, but also helps prevent the main slipcover from becoming loose and untucked. Although the fabric stretches, it might be a very tight fit and you may struggle to close the zipper on your own! However, the main section is very easy to install and has elastic to secure it in place around the bottom of the furniture.
Look
This slipcover has a sleek, smooth appearance and can give a worn loveseat a completely new look. It comes in a choice of 5 solid colors (burgundy, camel, chocolate, dark green and oatmeal), so there’s an option that should coordinate with most decorating themes.
Although the fabric is quite lightweight, it’s not flimsy and the original upholstery shouldn’t be visible. It appears to keep its color and shape after washing and doesn’t come out of the machine wrinkled, so there’s no need to iron it.
Our Verdict 
At under $150, we think this slipcover is good value for money and offers an affordable way to revamp a couch that’s seen better days. We love the fact that it’s an easy care fabric that doesn’t attract pet hairs and doesn’t crease easily.
Fabric
At first glance, this popular Maytex slipcover has the appearance of twill, however, it doesn’t contain cotton. Unlike regular twill, it’s made from a blend of polyester and Spandex, which gives it a smooth, snug fit. It is sturdy and easy to care for, as it can be laundered in the washing machine.
Fit
The two piece design means there’s a separate cover for the seat cushions, which also reduces the need to readjust the slipcover. Even if it does work loose after a while, it’s easy to tuck it back into position. It should fit loveseats that measure 32”-39”H x 58”-73”W and 36”-40”D.
Look
If you look closely, you’ll notice this slipcover has a very thin striped pattern, which we think is attractive and adds to its appeal, but if you’re looking for a smoother finish and a solid color, then this won’t be for you. The stretch fabric and two piece style helps give it an elegant appearance, which will work well for both casual everyday use and for entertaining guests.
Our Verdict 
At under $100 this slipcover offers an inexpensive solution to a tired couch. We like the fact that it looks like twill but has the benefits of a stretch fabric, and it’s washable. However, it does have a two tone pattern, so may not appeal to those who prefer a solid color.
