Let me start by saying this cushion is THICCC (yes, with three C's). The 4-inch high-resilience foam feels like sitting on a cloud, and the chenille fabric is soft enough to make you want to nap on it immediately. I used mine for a window seat, and it transformed my awkward nook into a cozy reading spot.

The non-slip bottom actually works! No more constantly adjusting the cushion after getting up. Though I wish the included ties were longer - had to get creative securing it to my deep bench.

Now, the unboxing experience is... dramatic. It arrives vacuum-sealed into a tiny package that looks nothing like the product photos. Mine looked like a sad, wrinkled pancake at first. Pro tip: either wait 3 days for natural expansion (who has that patience?) or toss it in the dryer with some tennis balls for 15 minutes like I did. The transformation is magical!

After 6 months of daily use, the cushion hasn't flattened at all. The gray color hides stains well, though spot cleaning is a must since it's not machine washable. My only complaint? The 'brushed velvet' description is misleading - it's more of a soft chenille texture.

For the price, this cushion delivers serious comfort and style. Just be prepared to put in some initial fluffing work - consider it your initiation into the cozy bench club!
