    In poway
    Saadia P.

    I have been going to this place for almost 10 years now. Their work is extremely neat. Mary the owner is very helpful. I dont always get the upholstery material from them but Mary gives an estimate of how much would be required. Got upholstered sofas, chairs, outdoor var chairs.

    I have a Room & Board leather sofa that's maybe 12 years old. GF was complaining that it was getting tired and uncomfortable and it was probably time to replace it. But these sofas are top quality. 100% made in the USA, hardwood frame, top quality craftsmanship and materials. And somewhat expensive. Probably about $3,500 or so. They don't rate the sofa to failure, as they don't expect it to fail. So I had to decide whether to get rid of it and buy something else, probably lower quality and made in China. Or buy new cushions and foam cores (about $800). Or buy new foam cores from the factory (about $400). Or take it to a Fabric Outlet for new foam (about $160) but maybe up to 2 weeks to do the job and quality could be inferior. Or take it to a local upholstery shop (Ming's) that I had good prior experience with, and have them replace the foam (about $275). In the end, I took it to Ming's Upholstery in Poway and I was shocked that they did new 4" HR41 high resilience foam cores surrounded by 1" of HR30 (softer) foam and got the job done in only 3 hours. Oh, and I also gave it a good cleaning w/a leather soap and a finishing treatment. I think it looks a lot better. To be clear, the only thing I did was clean the sofa and have Ming's put in the new foam cores. But you can see how nicely it filled out the seating part so those funky wrinkles are mostly gone. They also did a nice job recovering 4 stools that I brought them last year (that job took 3 days, rather than 3 hours.) Before and after photos.

    We have a leather couch that we have always loved. The seat and back cushions and one armrest had lost firmness. We saw the reviews of Ming's and decided to try it. Just amazed at their work. Couch is like new. Very professional and within a week we had our beautiful couch back. So glad we did not have to get rid of our favorite couch. Also saved money by not buying a new leather couch. Highly recommend this wonderful small business!!

    New cushions for backyard furniture

    All I can say is wow! We had our 8 year old backyard furniture reupholstered. We went to Ming's selected our sunbrella material and they did their magic. We are over the top happy with the new cushions. Also, was a pleasant surprise to learn they have zippers. Awesome work and awesome customer service. We have used them in the past to reupholster our boats seats as well!

    I have trusted Ming's Upholstery to redo many furniture pieces over the years and they didn't disappoint this time. They took my grandparents 1980's brown speckled chairs into this decade and did an incredible job with the detail work. The pattern on the fabric was lined up perfectly and the craftsmanship is high quality. Thank you so much to the team at Ming's!

    The work bench in the store - Ming's just had the photo, material, & taped measurements

    The only thing Ming's was given were many measurements and a digital of a large steel workbench. It stood 5 feet tall, 45 inches wide with a work area at waste level. Several compartments had to be reaches from top to bottom. There was no rush to get it done. (KOBALT 3 drawer workbench) Not all of the workbench needed to be accessed at ally times. Velco tape down the middle, grommets in three places - top, middle, & bottom. The grommets allowed for the bench to be totally uncovered and hooked to I-bolts on the right and left corners. Outdoor material was used like of patio furniture. We were amazed on how it turned out with only photograph, material. and measurements.

    Sectional before Ming's restoration

    My 15-year-old leather match sectional was miserably uncomfortable but the leather was still in great shape, so we brought it to Ming's for an overhaul. They replaced all the foam in the seats, re-stuffed the backs, and tightened all the webbing. It's like having a brand-new sectional! Work was completed in just one week, and the price was fair for the materials cost and work required. Elise at the front desk was a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend Ming's and will use them again!

    Faux leather selection

    So happy with the quality of their work. Saved if I were to buy these brand new! Amazing work!

    Excellent work by Ming's Upholstery to repair the torn bottom seat cushion.

    Did an amazing job conveying our old, fraying couch into looking brand new! And at a great price!
