The cushions came well package, not smooched. The color is exactly as described,  and they are very thick and comfortable. They seem well made and durable.  I ordered these cushions for a patio that isn't covered hoping I could just plop down on them anytime and they would always be ready to use without having to remove them and store them out of the elements when not in use.  After a heavy rain the seat part holds a lot of water and takes several days to completely dry.  I live in Louisiana where it rains almost every afternoon, so I'm a little disappointed.  I'm going to have to purchase some sort of water proof cover or remove them when not in use.  That's the only reason I didn't give them 5 stars.
