Do not waste your time with this video. You will not learn a thing. I suffered through it thinking he would eventually say something of importance. I did a lot of fast forwarding because he'd make you watch what ever he was doing, not once, not twice, but on and on. There was very little verbal instruction and the guy running the camera was an idiot. Half the time what ever was being done was out of the picture. The instructor even mentioned once, either on this video or his next one, that the camera man must have fallen asleep. Everything about these upholstery videos is amateurish. It makes me think all of the technical videos you rent are second rate. Wasted my money.

I rented the upholstery videos and was very impressed with the information covered.I am currently taking an upholstery class, there is a lot of information on the video that is covered in our class. I am looking forward to more videos on this subject. I would recommend these videos to anyone who is interested in learning upholstery.
