Adorable and Snug
Color: Dark Grey, Size: Zippered 13x18 Inch (Pack of 2)
They fit the toddler pillows perfectly! Zero shrinkage in the wash and hasn’t held any stains. The color looks rich and hasn’t faded. Very soft and the zipper closure doesn’t stick out at all! Will buy more!

Comfortable and stays cool
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Great pillow. When i opened it, i noticed a strange smell, i assumed its the smell of whatever they use to make the pillow stay cool. You have to fluff it for a good amount of time to make sure the cooling agent spreads well in the foam. Is what i assumed atleast. Its a perfect amount of softness for me. Pair it with some bamboo pillow cases and you got a good night of sleep
