Shoppers across the UK are rushing to secure a last-minute bargain on a versatile comfort cushion from Debenhams, with many calling it a 'perfect' purchase for relaxation and support. The OHS Teddy Fleece Bed Reading Cushion has been reduced from £28.99 to just £19.99, offering a substantial saving of nearly a third (31%).
What Makes This Cushion So Popular?
Described as a 'perfect companion' for reading, watching television, or enhancing the work-from-home experience, the cushion is designed to provide excellent back and shoulder support. Its generous filling and clever design promote a more upright sitting position, aiming to relieve physical stress.
The product comes in seven different colour options: grey, charcoal, cream, pink, navy, neutral, and black. Its cosy teddy fabric cover is marketed as creating a 'warm and gentle' feeling, akin to a gentle hug while you relax. Debenhams highlights its versatility, noting it's not just for beds but also fits most standard chairs.
Customer Reviews: High Praise and Some Criticisms
The cushion, which can be delivered within five working days in time for Christmas, holds an overall rating of 3.9 out of 5 stars based on 55 reviews. Many customers have been overwhelmingly positive.
One reviewer stated, 'Stuffed really full! Provides excellent support in bed or on the sofa. A lovely, warm and comfortable item.' Another shared its practical benefits: 'Perfect for my wife, who has fibromyalgia. It helps her be more comfortable in bed.' Others mentioned long-held desires being fulfilled, with one writing, 'I'd wanted one of these for ages and wasn't disappointed. Perfect for reading in bed.'
However, a minority of reviews pointed out issues. Some customers complained about the quality of filling, with one saying it was 'virtually flat,' while others were disappointed that the cover was not removable or washable as they had expected.
Alternative Options and Final Verdict
While this Debenhams deal is attracting attention, shoppers do have alternatives. For instance, Dunelm offers a similar Teddy Bear Cuddle Cushion, reduced to £10 from £25. Amazon also sells a Cuddle Cushion with a Detachable Neck Roll, currently priced at £22.09 in a sale.
Despite the competition, the positive feedback for the Debenhams cushion appears to be a significant draw. With the discount in place and delivery promising arrival before the festive period, it is being viewed as both a personal treat and a practical Christmas present idea. As one satisfied customer summarised, 'Have tried lots of other cushions but this is the best.'
