Question from Elizabeth

Debra,

I purchased my couch five years ago and had Stainsafe applied in the store before delivery. Now I obviously realize that decision was wrong but I don’t have the money for a new “organic” type of couch and all the companies want at least $1500 to reupholster my sofa and loveseat. Do you think after five years it’s gone? Or do you feel it can still be toxic to my toddler? I have checked and at the very least there were no flame retardants used on the foam. I acknowledge there are still fumes from the foam and plywood inside, but I’m mostly focused on the exterior fabric right now. I’m thinking about buying a few sofa covers (washed multiple times to get out the chemicals) and using those to minimize exposure from the Stainsafe.

Thanks!

Elizabeth
