I sliced the arm of our microfiber love seat. Is this something I can repair or do I need to find a shop to repair the cut?
Depending on the size of the cut, they do sell patch repair kits. You may be able to sew or fabric glue.
A photo may be able to help.
If the repair doesn't look as nice, you could also buy a sofa cover, or a blanket or pillow could cover it up.
You might be able to take a piece from the back or bottom and put a patch underneath the cut.

My dog chewed a hole in my microfiber couch. How can I repair it? The tear is a little smaller than a baseball.
By Lisa from Orange, TX
Just wondering if you found out a way to repair your hole because our bulldog just did the same to our couch. Thanks either way for the help.
Same here!!!!
Ditto mine dog did same its about the size of a softball or bigger! Ugh- any answers?
Lol....maybe there is some correlation between dogs and microfiber furniture because my dog, who is still a puppy, chewed 2 holes in our microfiber couch and loveseat. I should wrap her chew toys with microfiber, maybe she would chew on them!
Seems like you might want to invest in training before a new or fixed couch.
I just bought my sofa a week ago and noticed a tiny hole in it today. It is leather look microfiber. Is there any way to fix it? I got insurance on it, but hate to use it for such a small hole. Any suggestions?
Use the insurance! Thats what it is for.
Was the hole there when you purchased or do you know for sure? since it is only one week old, I would suggest asking the store where purchased to fix it or replace the sofa.
I would check with the store first. They may offer to replace it.
A diy repair may make the situation worse and could invalidate the insurance. If the store won't help, invoke the insurance as that is what it is to be used for. Good luck!

My husband has a fabric lift chair and he digs his heal into the foot rest upholstery. There is starting to be some small tears. How can I repair it or what do you recommend covering it with?
I have a microfiber couch that has a rip in the seat cushion. The hard part is the cushion is attached to the couch and won't come up so I cannot just put a piece of fabric under it. Any suggestions for what I can do? Also what should I use?

Not sure if this would be what you're looking for, but seems as though it might work: Heat n Bond. You should test it on a piece of scrap fabric first, before using it on your sofa, but it looks as though this wouldn't be too noticeable.
I bought a Miami Dolphins microfiber couch a couple of years ago and just recently noticed some little tiny holes on the back of the couch. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
You can use fray check to make sure the holes don't get bigger. Then darn the holes closed with matching thread.

I need help repairing small tears in a microfiber sofa.

Nothing available that just told me what I wanted to know. Plenty of suggestions as to where I can purchase velvet and even how to sew it when making up a garment but NOTHING on how to repair a tear.
I have a microfiber couch which has two small torn places, close together. How can I patch it without it being noticeable?
