While it may be tempting to grab a cozy indoor pillow for your urban balcony or patio, this is generally not advisable. Regular indoor pillows are not designed to withstand the outdoor environment. They lack the crucial, weather-resistant fabrics and fillings found in specialty outdoor cushions. When exposed to sun, rain, humidity, and dirt, indoor pillows will quickly degrade. The fabric will fade and weaken, the filling will clump or mold, and they become a magnet for mildew and pests. This leads to a ruined pillow and can even damage your furniture's frames or surfaces. Special outdoor pillows are constructed with solution-dyed acrylic or polyester fabrics that resist fading, moisture, and stains. Their fills, often quick-drying polyester, are engineered to withstand dampness. For the longevity of your accessories and furniture, and for easier maintenance, investing in purpose-built outdoor pillows is the smart choice for any urban outdoor space.
Can I use regular indoor pillows on my urban outdoor furniture, or do they need to be special outdoor ones?
