Blend Down, the real truth !

2009-07-25T05:56:00.000-07:00

The shape you see is a sheet ? No ? Yes! This is typical for blend down cushions, the quantity of feather provided is very little, the quality of feather provided is the low end, 90% feather 10% down, and then the sheet of dacron in the encasement grabs the feather. This nullifies any feather behavior there might have been.

To re-word that for you, what is called blend down is a marketing device, the typical blend down cushion does not deliver the behavior of down.

Link to that photo series embedded in photo title above, there's an archive at left when you get there, look down the list to Blend Down. Enjoy!
