Let me start by saying I was really excited to get this cushion for my patio glider. The green color looked vibrant in the pictures, and the waterproof feature was a major selling point for me since I live in a rainy area.

When it first arrived, I was a bit concerned because it came vacuum-sealed and looked flat as a pancake. Following the instructions, I let it sit in the sun for about three days, giving it occasional fluffs. To my relief, it did plump up nicely - though not as thick as I expected from the product description.

The water resistance is absolutely legit. We've had several rain showers since installation, and the cushion dries remarkably fast without any water soaking through. The ties work perfectly to keep it securely in place on my glider - no sliding issues whatsoever.

However, I do have to agree with some reviewers about the thickness. While comfortable enough for short sitting sessions, it's not what I'd call luxurious padding. After about an hour of sitting, I do find myself shifting positions frequently.

The size was accurate for my 40-inch bench, but if you're looking for something super plush, this might not be your best option. That said, for basic outdoor comfort with excellent weather resistance and easy maintenance, it does the job well at this price point.
