I was a little confused about what I was actually getting with this purchase. Some places in the description talked about the insert and the cover, other places said they were 4 inserts only. I wish there had been a better and less confusing description. There are 2 packs of 2 pillow inserts  each; tightly compressed. When they were delivered, I didn't believe the package could possibly be 4 pillows. Once out of the package though, I was quite pleased. I had just purchased 2 perfect throw pillow covers and these fit beautifully. Now I guess I'll need to buy 2 more covers! I received these pillow inserts in exchange for my honest opinion.
