About BETU Pillow Inserts

BETU is a home textile brand best known for its adjustable shredded memory foam bed pillows. On amazon.com its current in-stock line is a range of feather throw pillow inserts: the cores that go inside decorative cushion covers on a sofa, bed or window seat.

All sizes share the same construction — a half-feather, half-polyester fill in a two-layer, feather-proof shell — so you can mix square, euro and lumbar inserts in one room and get the same full, soft look. Most sizes come as a set of two; 22″ squares and both lumbar sizes are also sold singly.

50/50 Feather Blend

Feather for softness, high-resilience polyester fibre to keep the insert full and stop it going flat.

Feather-Proof Shell

A breathable outer cover over a tightly woven inner liner keeps quills inside.

Full Corners

Designed to fill the corners of a cover for the crisp, tailored look stylists aim for.

8 Sizes

Throw Pillow Inserts

BETU Feather Pillow Inserts

BETU’s throw pillow inserts are filled with an even blend of feather and high-resilience polyester fibre: the feather gives a soft, light feel and the fibre keeps the insert full so the corners don’t collapse. The shell has a breathable outer layer over a tightly woven inner layer that stops feathers from poking through. Every size ships compressed and fluffs back up within a day or two.

A Fuller Look on Sofas and Beds — BETU

A Fuller Look on Sofas and Beds

Feather on its own tends to slump; polyester on its own can feel stiff and springy. BETU mixes the two in equal parts, so an insert sinks softly when you lean on it but keeps its height and corners when you get up. A quick shake and a pat brings it back into shape.

Unpacking and Fluffing Your Inserts

Based on the steps BETU prints on the listing.

In the Box

  • One or two inserts in the chosen size, vacuum-compressed
  • Feather and polyester fill inside a two-layer white shell
  • No cover — inserts are made to go inside your own pillow covers

Care

  • Freshen: Tumble dry on low heat for 10–15 minutes to restore loft.
  • Everyday: Shake and pat the inserts when you change covers to spread the fill evenly.
  1. 1

    Unpack

    Take the inserts out of the vacuum packaging, cutting the plastic away from the fabric.

  2. 2

    Shake and fluff

    Hold each insert by two corners and shake it hard, then squeeze it from the edges towards the middle.

  3. 3

    Pat and shape

    Pat flat areas and push the fill into the corners until the insert looks even.

  4. 4

    Let it recover

    Leave the inserts in a dry, airy spot. They regain most of their loft in 20–30 minutes and reach full size within 24–48 hours.

  5. 5

    Boost with the dryer

    If an insert still looks flat, tumble dry it on low heat for 10–15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Size up for a full look

    Slip the insert into a cover about 2 inches smaller than the insert for full corners.

BETU Pillow Insert FAQ

A blend of 50% feather and 50% polyester fibre. The feather gives softness and a light feel; the high-resilience polyester provides structure so the inserts stay full.

The shell has two layers: a breathable outer cover and a tightly woven inner layer designed to stop feathers from escaping.

For a plump look with full corners, choose an insert about 2 inches larger than the cover — for example a 20 × 20″ insert for an 18 × 18″ cover, or a 22 × 22″ insert for a 20 × 20″ cover.

Square 16 × 16″, 18 × 18″, 20 × 20″ and 22 × 22″; euro 24 × 24″ and 26 × 26″; and lumbar 12 × 20″ and 14 × 36″.

Most sizes come as a set of two. The 22 × 22″ square and both lumbar sizes are also available as single inserts.

They are vacuum-compressed for shipping. Shake and pat them, then give them 24–48 hours to recover their full loft.

Shake it vigorously, pat out flat areas, and tumble dry on low heat for about 10–15 minutes to lift the fill.

No. They have a plain white shell and are meant to be used inside your own decorative pillow covers.

Anywhere you use decorative cushions: sofas, beds, armchairs, reading nooks, window seats, offices and guest rooms.
