What is inside the cushion backs & do the covers have elastic corners?

10 years ago

You said that the cushions are pretty firm. Are they foam wrapped with batting? Also, do the cushion covers have elastic corners underneath? How do you keep them from shifting when people sit on them?

Thank You

The seat cushions are actually twin mattresses that we had covers custom made for. Because of the weight of the mattress is why they don’t slip around. The mattress cover has a zipper at the back so it can be removed for cleaning.

The back cushions are a 25/75 down fill in matching fabric to the seat cushions and a contrasting welt.

Thanks for asking!
