Great product at a reasonable price.
This pillow is good quality at a reasonable price. The monogram adds just the right finishing touch. Just what I needed to complete the look!

Well made product
These pillows are well made and look great. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. I will always buy my pillows from Ballard. You can't beat the price...especially when there is a sale. I have shared this info with my friends as well.

Attractive Designer Pillow
My 12 x 14 pillow turned out perfectly. The pillow is well made with even seams and a hidden zipper. The piping gives it a nice designer touch without the added cost. I added a monogram to my pillow for the finishing touch. The velvet fabric was perfect. The down insert gives the pillow added fluffiness. I love this pillow so much that I plan to order a few more. For the price, this pillow is a steal!

A little flimsy
I expected the actual pillows to be fuller and firmer. It almost feels like the cover is too big for for the pillows. They look a little flimsy and sloppy. I'm keeping them, but it's just not exactly what I had in mind.

Great fabric, but insert falls flat
I really like the small black check fabric for the pillows. Gives me the French Country look that I was going for, but the inserts do not hold their shape very well. I had bought this same insert several years ago, and it did not lose its shape like these.

This is a devine pillow!
I was very pleased when I opened the box to see my monogrammed pillow. The insert is very comfortable and fits the "zippered" cover very well. The construction and material of the cover are excellent and the monogram well done--the finishing touch. I get a great feeling of pleasure and satisfaction everytime I look at the pillow. Can't wait to order more!

We bought 2 of these pillows and they are great.
We love the color, the feel, and they look great on our beautiful white leather sofa.

Flatten quickly
These pillows have flattened very quickly. Not sure what we need to do to get them to 'fluffen' up. Given the price paid we expected a lot more from them.

Nice quality product
This pillow has a nice full insert (some feather inserts are somewhat lacking in the number of feathers!). When I first took the velvet cover out of the package, it had some rather obvious creases (from having been folded), but they soon 'fluffed up', and all is fine now. All in all, I'm very happy with it - especially considering the reasonable price.

Nice pillows
I have several of these Essential pillows in a variety of sizes. Like the inserts a lot, like all the fabric choices and love Ballard. Everything I have ever bought from them is great, and the one time I wasn't pleased, they fixed it immediately!

Great value
No complaints - ordered the linen 12x20 pillow with navy blue monogram. I'm very happy with it. Love the range of choices for size, fabric, and monogramming style. Overall great value.

No substance
These inserts are reasonably priced; however, I would not recommend this product unless you like a pillow which goes flat the moment you lay your head on it. If it's purely for decoration, it would be decent.

Pillow is great
I loved my rectangular pillow so much I ordered a second one! I had previously ordered Ballards Coventry bench as a banquette seat for my newly remodeled kitchen (which I love). After I had it I saw that I could get a matching pillow would make it even more of a lounging spot. Very good quality and comfort, and a good decision! Think I'll order another color to trade off for a different look. Love the black and white check fabric!

Great Finishing Touch!
I purchased this pillow in the natural burlap and had it monogrammed in cream. It is the perfect finishing touch in a room that is accented with various burlap items (lamp shades, 2 other Ballard toss pillows...Ballard Burlap Shower Curtain in the adjoining bath). Love it!

Nice but not very full
The pillow covers are terrific. The feather inserts are well made and of good quality but simply need more stuffing. Overall, I am content with the pillows.

Quality product
I ordered 3 pillows and twill covers for my couch. The pillows are great quality as are the covers.
The pillows are a little softer fill than I though they should be. The description should said soft down fill. However I am happy with them.

Excellent product & value
So happy with my pillows! And the price point was an added bonus.

Nice fabric. Great service!
Very nice pillows at a great price. Delivery was very prompt.

Stunning
I ordered three and plan to give two away as Christmas gifts, keeping one for myself. I always enjoy giving gifts which I know the persons will enjoy receiving and making it something special for them....like the monogramming on each pillow with their initials. Should not be a problem with how to care for the pillowcases as they can be easily removed for cleaning. Love that!

Beautiful
I ordered two of these pillows for my living room. They add just the right touch to my couches without taking up too much sitting space. I usually sew my own decorative pillows but this particular set I could have not completed for the price Ballard Designs offered. It was a great deal and the quality is up to my high standards.

Very disappointed!
Very disappointed. The inserts are much smaller than the pillow and the pillow is very flat. I ordered the color celery to match the curtains and the color is way off - almost light tan. The two that I ordered didn't even match - very different from each other. I even ordered a second pair to see if the first was a mistake - still no good.

Poor quality
The pillow insert is white and shows right thru the brown pillow fabric, looks terrible.

Beautiful and practical
These pillows were meticulously monogrammed and came in a timely fashion. They are really well made, and the inserts are of good quality. I would use these in many clients homes. They look good on the sofa and do not appear wrinkled when used as a backrest.

Perfect!
I ordered this pillow for my chair and a half and it is perfect! High quality fabric and monogramming.

Just off the mark
I ordered the rectangle pillow in apple green velvet with monogram but was disappointed that the green color is washed out; not a vibrant apple green as it looked online and in earlier catalogues; it just misses the mark in being an outstanding value otherwise.

Beautiful, personal, and a great value.
This is the fourth monogrammed pillow I've ordered from Ballards, and I am completely satisfied with all. Two were for me, and two were gifts, and the recipients loved them. The monogramming is lovely and the fabric of excellent quality. Shipping was very fast. All in all, a wonderful accessory at a great price.

pillow has pizazz
I ordered the black and white checked pillow and can't believe how it ties the room together. It is well made and the fabric is great. I've gotten compliments already.
October 26, 2012
I love, love, love these pillows
These pillows are a great buy. They are made extremely well and the monogramming looks wonderful. The shipping was timely and they were packaged well. I am always satisfied with Ballard's products, and these pillows are keepers.

attention to detail was missed
I will note that it took close to 6 weeks to receive the pillows and when I did:
The inserts are too small (skimpy) but were recommended for that size; and
The monogram was upside down for one of the pillows (zipper at the top as opposed to at the bottom as it should have been).
Unfortuntate as I have usually had good luck with Ballard.

The pillow is so striking
I have gotten so many compliments on the monogramed pillow cover. It is very good quality and I plan to give them as Christmas gifts.
