Fluff your cushions often for longevity, to minimize flattening of your cushions and reduce wear that can occur over a period of time.
Tip: Fluff your cushions by holding one end of the cushion in one hand. With the opposite hand hit your cushion gently in all areas to begin to settle and arrange feathers back into place.
