Alan Upholstery Supply & Fabric

First off, let me say that hubby and I have been not very happy with our sectional for quite some time. Maybe it’s because our wrestlemania pups have been using it as a racetrack and a springboard. Maybe it’s because by doing that, they have managed to completely spring out almost all of the springs in the cushions, making it very difficult to sit on. Who really knows?
Anyhow, we had had enough, and were debating on either replacing it or getting the cushions redone. I was pressing for new, but hubby being the more practical, was not.
We did our research and found this little gem of a place in Santa Ana. It’s been renamed «Alan’s Upholstery» so keep that in mind. Convenient location off either the 55 or 5, Saturday hours! and easy to access.
We walked inside, plenty of shelves stocked with sewing odds and ends. Lots of good thread, zippers, rope, fasteners, you name it. Of course fabric (and leather!) and all sorts of other goodies.
We were immediately greeted by the daughter of the owner (so sweet and friendly!) and when we described what we needed she showed us all the different types of foam and we quickly figured out what would work best.
We hauled in our lumpy cushions and the owner (very nice and genuine man-​loves what he does) opened them up and we were shocked at how bad they were. He answered all our questions, told us what he would do for us (replacement foam, new batting and etc) and that they would either be done that day or first thing the following morning. The pricing was more than fair!
And sure enough, we got a call 3 hours later saying our cushions were ready to go.
When we picked up the next morning, the transformation was mind blowing. I will post before and after pics. It’s like we have a brand new couch.
All in all, an epic and easy experience. Cannot recommend them enough. We will be back very soon!

My husband and I had been searching several week for fabric and foam for our 1967 travel trailer restoration project. We were referred A-​1 Foam from a local upholsterer. We found them too expensive. So we took a walk and came upon Alan’s upholstery. Wow! We found the perfect fabric at less that half the price and Alan supplied us with all the foam needed at an unbeatable price too! Alan and his staff were kind, courteous and HONEST. We highly recommend buying your upholstery needs from Alan upholstery.

This place was awesome! First off we needed 4 couch cushions reupholstered the same day and these guys pulled it off. They also gave me the highest quality foam for the cheapest price. I called 4 other places in the area and got quotes from all of them. They were $ 300-​$ 500 and wouldn’t be ready to later the next day. My price was $ 225 and they were done in about 4 hours. Yes, the actual place has limited parking and the inside is very weathered but they knew there stuff and did an excellent job. My wife and I are very satisfied and I plan to recommend these guys to others.

Went online in search of foam attempting to extend the life of my old couch. Found AAA Upholstery in Santa Ana on this website and the reviews were more favorable over their nearest competitor, A-​1. When I called I learned it is now Alan’s Upholstery, but with the same ownership and staff. What a find! Alan took his time and his shop staff took even more time with me trying out all sorts of combinations of foam and padding in the back section of my couch that I took in with me. They never even hinted at any impatience whatsoever, and when all was said and done I walked out of there with sufficient high quality material to get at least five more years out of my tired old Lazy Boy Motion Couch! I couldn’t be more pleased and I cannot more strongly recommend them. Cyber high five to Alan and his staff!

Came here to get some upholstery foam and accessories for a some antique chairs that we were restoring.
The guy behind the counter was very helpful and knowledgeable in terms of the exact type of product we needed, thickness and sizing. He advised us on the materials, and cut the foam pieces into the exact sizes we needed.
The inside of this place definitely needs some work (water damage is still there as of ⁴⁄₂₀₁₁), but then again this is Santa Ana and the prices here are low enough that it does not matter.
Parking is limited and you park behind the store itself (entrance to the parking lot is along Main Street.

I recently came shopping to AAA Upholstery Supply & Fabric Co. in Santa Ana. I was doing some comparison shopping, between A-​1 Upholstery and AAA. I saw both stores have similar pricing. In shopping here, I was looking for some foam and microfiber fabric for some pillows I was making for my husband’s office couch. I brought the hubby to this store and to A-​1 Foam & Fabrics, which is on 1816 Main St. I have to admit, the selection at AAA was rather small compared to A-​1, but the sparse selection was due to a recent rain storm that damaged the store’s merchandise. The ceiling collapsed at the rear of the store, causing the store to flood. The water damage, I take it, destroyed most of the spools of fabric, because the warehouse was practically empty with a partial selection of fabric relocated to the front of the store. The store’s sparse selection almost deterred me from shopping further, but then a super helpful and friendly saleswoman accommodated us. She helped us by showing us some fabric swatches we could special order. We found some nice fabric swatches and placed an order in store. The fabric order arrived 4 days later and was exactly what we wanted and needed.
AAA is a reasonable store for upholstery supplies, foam and fabric. Anything they might not have available, check to see if you can custom order it.
