To break in a cushion, you can use physical manipulation techniques.
Instead of waiting for a cushion to break in naturally, you can speed up the process by applying pressure and movement. Here are effective methods for breaking in your cushions:
- Kneading and Massaging: Use your hands, fists, or even elbows to knead and massage the cushion. This helps to loosen the fibers and filling, making it softer and more comfortable.
- Rolling: Placing the cushions on the floor and rolling on them, similar to breaking in a new mattress, can help to distribute the filling and compress the cushion evenly.
- Walking: Walking on the cushions can achieve a similar effect as rolling, applying pressure and helping the cushion to soften and mold to a more comfortable shape.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Kneading & Massaging | Use hands, fists, or elbows to manually loosen filling. |
| Rolling | Place cushion on floor and roll on it to compress filling evenly. |
| Walking | Walking on the cushion to apply pressure and help with compression and shape |
These methods help distribute filling and soften the cushion, making it more comfortable and broken-in more quickly.
