Product description
Complete meditation support set: This kit contains a round zafu cushion and a matching zabuton floor pad. The zabuton measures approximately 32 x 26 x 3 inches and serves as a padded base for seated meditation, kneeling, prayer, or yoga transitions.
Ergonomic build: The zafu and zabuton are shaped to promote healthy floor-sitting alignment for the spine, hips, knees, ankles, and feet. Together they reduce pressure on joints and encourage a stable, upright posture for longer, less distracted practice sessions.
Natural, earth-friendly fillings: The zafu’s cover is cotton and its inner bag is filled with USA-grown organic buckwheat hulls that conform to body contours while remaining breathable and supportive. The zabuton has a natural cotton shell and is packed with recycled cotton batting to insulate from cold floors and provide cushioning.
Removable, adjustable fill: The zafu includes a refillable inner bag of buckwheat hulls so you can add or remove hulls to customize height and firmness. This refillable design also makes it simple to refresh or replace the fill over time for continued comfort.
Durable, washable covers: Both pieces feature sturdy, zippered cotton canvas outer covers that withstand hand or machine washing, making upkeep straightforward. The construction is built for repeated use and easy care to maintain a clean, long-lasting meditation spot.

Very nice combo
Great set. I removed a fair amount of extra hulls from the zafu since it came very full, but that made it just right. Excellent pair to restart a meditation routine.

Comfortable and joint-friendly
Very comfortable cushion set. It eases joint pressure and has exceeded what I expected for daily sitting.

All-in-one set that upgraded my practice
Arrived as pictured. I like that the seat and pad are separate — you can use either one alone or both together. Removable covers with solid zippers make washing easy. The zafu comes filled with buckwheat so you can adjust firmness and height. There’s a small strap on the seat for carrying. Would be nice if a nonslip mat was included, but overall a strong, useful package (and the cat approved).

High quality, comfortable for daily use
I use this cushion and pad every morning and couldn’t be happier. As a senior new to meditation, I find the support excellent and the covers are washable. The seat’s strap makes it easy to move around. Chose the cotton cover and it feels durable and practical.

Exceptionally comfortable for longer sits
I finally treated myself to a proper meditation seat and immediately noticed a difference. Knee and foot aches are gone and my sessions feel deeper and longer. Construction seems sturdy and the simple look is fine for a quiet practice space. Improved posture and comfort make this a very satisfying purchase.

Well made and easy to clean
The zafu keeps its shape and is the right height for me; it’s not floppy like cheaper cushions. The zabuton has a removable cover which makes laundering simple, and the stitching looks solid with no fraying. Overall quality and durability are impressive.

My pet approved it immediately
Set it up and my dog promptly took it over — soft enough for them, sturdy enough for me.

Quick delivery but slight chemical smell at first
There was a faint solvent-like odor when it arrived that faded after airing out for a few days.

Firm, supportive seat for longer sessions
The oval zafu feels firm and very supportive. I’m new to meditation and can now sit far longer without hip or knee pain. The combo really makes floor sitting manageable where it used to be unbearable.
