Cushions are firm, but comfortable, but unfortunately, while one of the two I ordered drains water fine, the other one must be defective in some unseen manner, as no water drains from it.  We haven't had rain in over a week, and the cushion is still saturated.   Very disappointing.  Living in the South, we have quick, unexpected afternoon thunderstorms all the time, and it renders the chaise lounge useless (unless I get out right away and put the cushion over the railing to drain which is a pain).
