This is so annoying! I don't have pictures but on my last couch I just basted big pieces of velcro to the bottom of each cushion and to it's corresponding spot on the seat of the couch.
On my old couch I used that shelf liner that looks like a bumpy waffle weave. Just run a whole line of it under the front edge of the cushions underneath
There are different kinds of Velcro type fastener products. If replacing only one side/part of it, you will need to use same kind as original or the 2 pieces may not lock together. Best solution for Velcro is to buy matching pieces or sets & replace both sides/parts on whatever it's being used on. Test the 2 pieces before applying them to make sure they are compatible with each other & will hold.
Hope this helps explain why it likely didn't work.
How about a non skid rug pad? Also in the houseware section there is a similar product for glassware and dishes. Here is a link for them at Target, but they are sold just about everywhere.
You could try some strong adhesive velcro. You can buy it in different lengths and strengths at a local fabric store. It may not solve the problem completely but it should help.
I have heard of using the waffle stuff that is generally used for shelf lining....cut a square and put in between your cushions. Also how about the stuff that you use on the back of throw rugs to keep them from slipping? Or is it possible to sew big snaps on the underside of your cushion and couch ? Maybe in the back corners?
Are your cushions leather on both sides? If so, you'll need to sew a non slip cover onto the underside of each cushion to prevent movement.
If cushions are fabric, perhaps the stuffing has collapsed over the years, causing surface fabric to have excessive movement. Your option would be to remove covers, add foam and batting, then reattach cushion covers, insuring a tight fit.
Buy some of the pads that keep carpets from slipping. It can be cut to size. Use baby diaper pins to pin that to the seat bottom. That is what I use to keep the cushions in place. Works great.
Hi Anneliese, you can try putting anti slip fabric between the coach and the cushions. It's like a rubber fabric that causes friction. Amazon sells it by the meter
I use the rubber net like material that you put underneath rugs so they do not move. I use those for everything, under my blender, food processor, cutting boars etc...You can cut them to shape. I have also seen them with shelf liners at big box stores (this would be the least expensive way if you only want to use them for your couch.
