How To Choose A Replacement Furniture Cup Holder

Measure the hole, check the style and pick the right finish for your recliner or home theater seat.

Cup holders crack, lose their shine and stop lighting up. Fortunately, replacing one is usually a simple job.

Measure first

Remove the old cup holder and measure the hole in the furniture, plus the depth available beneath it. Size matters more than style, since a new holder must drop in cleanly.

Choose your style

Options can include different finishes and LED lighting. Check product details and photos to see what each one offers.

Powered holders

If yours lights up or has other powered features, unplug the chair first. Note how the old one connects, and check that the plug on the new one matches.

Fitting tips

• Lift out the old holder gently, as it may be held with clips or screws.
• Clean the opening before fitting the new one.
• Test any lights before you put the chair back in place.
