Anyone into carpentry here?

I have 2 really sagging sofas and don't wish to spend the money to buy new ones.

My plan is to cut some 6mm MDF board to size and put it under the cushions, i have tried it with a piece of plywood i had lying around, even though it works it isn't strong enough so had cracked with just a little bit of flexing.

Would 6mm MDF board be suitable for the job in hand, would it flex without cracking or is there a cheap better alternative?

I couldn't find a suitable subforum for what i was asking, can we have a subforum for random posts like this?
