Mother's sofa has a broken castor. As she is a fair distance away, she

Parker Knoll as were are no more, wondering if anyone has any bright
ideas what is the best approach? Have searched around - eBay, Amazon,
web, anywhere I could think - nothing like them yet.

From what I received it is not entirely clear what the whole thing should
be like. I imagine that a standard prong thing should be there - which
goes into a socket on the sofa - but I could be wrong.

Generally it is easier to replace all four castors than to find an exact
match.

That is what I am beginning to believe.
