Round Zafu & Zabuton Meditation Cushion Set — Cotton Covers, Buckwheat Fill
Product description
What’s included: a round zafu meditation cushion and a matching zabuton floor pad. The zabuton is a thick kneeling/floor mat sized at 32 x 26 x 3" to create an insulating, cushioned surface beneath you.
Materials and fill: the outer covers are woven cotton canvas for durability and ease of care. The zafu’s inner bag is filled with USA-grown organic buckwheat hulls that can be adjusted or refilled to change height and firmness. The zabuton uses recycled cotton batting to provide a stable, insulating layer between you and the floor. These biodegradable materials conform to the body while offering firm support.
Design and use: the pair is shaped and sized to promote proper alignment of the spine, hips, knees, ankles and feet for seated meditation, prayer, or floor-based practices. The zafu lifts and tilts the hips to reduce pressure in the knees and lower back while the zabuton cushions knees and shins. The zafu’s fill is removable and refillable, so users can tailor the cushion over time.
Care and maintenance: both pieces feature zippered outer covers made from sturdy cotton canvas. The covers can withstand machine or hand washing for easy maintenance. The robust stitching and zipper construction are intended to hold up to regular use and cleaning, preserving your meditation space for the long term.

Great duo
Very nice set. I removed some of the excess hulls to lower the zafu — there was plenty to customize the height. Good pair to restart a meditation routine.

Relieves joint pressure
Very comfortable. Took pressure off my joints and surpassed what I expected from a basic cushion set.

Handy all-in-one upgrade
The cushion and pad arrive separately so you can use either or both. Covers unzip for washing and zippers and stitching are sturdy. The zafu is filled with buckwheat hulls and has enough fill to adjust height. A small strap makes it easy to carry.

American-made feel and comfort
I use this set every morning. As someone new to meditation and older, I find it supportive and comfortable. The cover washes and the pillow’s strap is convenient. I picked the cotton covers and they work well.

Finally a comfortable seat
I bought this to improve my meditation posture and wish I’d done it sooner. It removed knee and foot discomfort so I can stay focused. Construction feels solid and the simple look suits meditation. Very pleased with the comfort and support.

Easy to keep clean
The zafu maintains its height and shape. The zabuton cover is removable for washing or tumble-drying to remove pet hair. Seams are strong and there’s no fraying. Happy with the build quality.

Initial odor that fades
There was a solvent-like smell at first when new, but it diminished after some time.

Firm, supportive cushion
A solid, well-made oval seat that holds shape and feels comfortable. I can sit longer without hip or knee pain; it’s worth the investment for the improved endurance.
