Visually, for a decorative pillow on a chair, this looks great but to touch it leaves something to be desired. Behind the shag seems to be a very thick layer of cardboard stitched well into the front of the pillow followed by a small amount filler. For the price I don't feel ripped off 8.99 for a pillow is insane. I just would in no way buy this for a bed or a couch where the softness counts or you need a real...pillow.
