Backed by 3 Generations of Experience & Quality!!
Designers Best Friend is owned and operated by Joe Cohen. Slipcovering has been a family tradition for Joe dating back to his grandfather, Henry Abrams, who owned a business known as Henry Manufacturing. They were in the business of automotive slipcovers. Joe’s father, Bob Cohen, started a custom slipcover business in 1958. Joe assisted his father for many years and acquired a true passion for his work. Joe eventually started his own slipcover company, Designers Best Friend, which strives for high quality, affordable products with personal, friendly service!
Where your furniture gets a New Lease on Life!
The Benefits of Slipcovering:
- Covers are totally removable.
- The body of the piece zips off in one of the back corners.
- All cushions are covered individually and zip on and off.
- We use 4mm 100% woven polyester tape and coil zippers.
- The thread is Tex40 cotton wrapped polyester.
- We use 5 or 6/32″ super soft synthetic braided welt cord (more resilient than cotton and washable).
- All skirts are lined with 50% polyester/50% cotton fabric.
- On furniture without skirts we use a 1″ velcro around the bottom edge to secure the slipcover.
Use the workroom that all the stores & designer’s use! We make custom made slipcovers that fit like re-upholstery.
Ordering is easy and affordable, usually costing much less than new or re-upholstery.
First call for an accurate estimate – we can bring out fabric samples or you can shop for fabric on your own.
Your slipcovers are custom made, choose a fitted or relaxed slipcover, tailored skirt, ruffled skirt or no skirt at all.
Your furniture never leaves your home! We simply take a paper pattern of your furniture and deliver the finished slipcovers in 2 to 4 weeks.
Your new covers are removable and easy to wash or dry clean .
Your slipcover will have non-shrinking super soft welt cord on every seam and cushions are covered individually with a nylon zipper in the back.
Slipcovers enable you, your family, and your pets to relax and really enjoy your furniture.
