I have waded through the search for this, but everyone mentions warranty.

The edges of my seats are starting to fray:mad: . Other than replace the inside or get seat covers, is there anything I can do. I was thinking about very carefully taking a razor across the top to shave the 'bobbles' off. A little hesitant though as not sure if will compromise the strength of the tread.:eek:

I've done this on our dining chairs many times over the years. Once the fibres have frayed off, they aren't contributing to the strength anyway.

JML do a bobble shaver specifically for this.

But as Nick says if it's a bobble it isn't adding to the strength.

If you are under warrenty however I would leave it and let the problem get bad enough that the dealer will agree a problem.
