When the pillows first arrived I was disappointed. The insides were flat as a pancake and it didn't look as if the covering would fit. When I stuffed the inside into the cover~WOW! What a difference.  These pillows are exactly what I was looking for. They are the perfect size for my couch, the color is beautiful and the velvet is soft. They are a very well constructed quality pillow. I also like the fact that you can remove the covering to wash it because I have several little grandkids who drool. Extremely happy  with this purchase.
