    I can’t seem to find any other post although I’m sure I’m not the only one with this problem. I have creases or “dents” in the seat fabric. What is the best trick to eliminate or lessen these creases? Steam? Any particular device? Appreciate any insight

    Post some pictures of the problem. It sounds like the foam may be breaking down.

    I would consider a local automotive upholstery shop before finding used seats. If you're going to spend money, might was well get something nice.

    This right here. The foam has been crushed and deformed overtime. The foam is what give the seat and fabric its shape.
