Cushions are usually made of various materials, including foam, feathers, polyester fiberfill, down, memory foam, and other synthetic fibers. The outer covering is often made of fabric such as cotton, polyester, linen, velvet, etc.
Indoor cushions may not be suitable for outdoor use due to their lack of water resistance and durability against the harsh weather conditions in Australia. However, some outdoor cushions can be used indoors, but they might not have the same comfort feel as indoor-specific options.
The lifespan of cushions varies depending on usage and maintenance. On average, indoor cushions may last 3-5 years, while outdoor cushions might have a shorter lifespan due to exposure to harsh weather conditions. Replace cushions when they lose shape, support, or show signs of significant wear.
Cushions serve both decorative and functional purposes. While they add style to your furniture and living spaces, they also provide comfort and support when seated or lounging.
