How do I fix saggy cushions?

I have a sectional couch that has been LOVED! It’s been a bed to my four kids who seem to prefer it over their own beds! So the cushions are getting very low...NOT full. I’m not a seamstress but I want to fix this so it looks good again. The cushions for the back are attached. Ones you sit on are not. There are zippers for each cushion. I’m hoping not to spend a fortune! Any ideas PLEASE....😊 thank you!

    You could add more foam - cut to size - to the seat cushions. This will puff the up again.

    Fortunately you have zippers! Buy some loose batting and stuff in there, making sure that there are no lumps.

    If you want to pay a pro to put new foam in them, then make sure you buy a high density foam, and spend the extra money now so they will last another 110-15 years.

    Thank goodness for the zippers! Just remove the old saggy cushion foam and replace it with a firm high density foam. You can purchase the foam online or from a craft store & cut it to the size you need. OR I actually contacted my sofa's manufacturer ( found it on a tag stitched onto the fabric located under the seat cushions ) & they sent me replacement cushions for FREE! Mind you, my sofa was only 2 years old but it's surely worth a try!

    I neatly stuffed beach towels in with the cushions as a temporary boost. No one knew a thing!

    Beach towels sound good too. The back cushions are more like pillows instead of the square.
