DreamTime Perfect Balance Zafu Cushion

DreamTime Perfect Balance Zafu Cushion, Gold Brocade DragonsThis zafu cushion is both beautiful and comfortable! It makes me feel a bit like I'm being transported to a beautiful Asian country with the red satin-type fabric and embroidered golden and black dragonflies. The fabric is slippery enough that you can adjust your sitting position easily, but not so slippery that you feel like you will slide off. I do recommend that you spend the time necessary to adjust the buckwheat hull filling. I removed at least two full quart-sized snap-and-seal bags of hulls before the zafu was a comfortable fullness (or squishiness). The cushion expands in diameter and lowers in height as you remove the hulls. I preferred the zafu less full so that it resembled the consistency of beach sand that could be adjusted to the contours of my body. Of course, I am saving the hulls in case they later compact, and the zafu becomes too squishy.

I love this meditation cushion. What a tremendous difference between meditating on this versus a small sofa pillow (like I had been doing previously).

The first time I sat on it I doubled my meditation time. Its that good. I recommend this and get a firm dog bed to use as a Zubaton (base underneath it) that you can get for or so.

You can remove more of the little husk seeds inside to make it softer which is great for adjusting it to your preference. I removed about the equivalent of half a box of cereal and now it conforms to my buttocks very nicely.

This is even nicer than the one at my Buddhist center so that should tell you alot about the high quality of this product. Worth every penny Buy one!

Best of luck on your path to enlightenment!!

EDIT: 9 months later the cushion started to fall apart and the stitching began to tear. Therefore I would not buy this brand again.

Following two months of use (a zafu is my primary seat), this sprang a significant leak. My previous cushion only started leaking after 5 years of the same use (60 months, a factor of 30 difference).

The fabric is beautiful, but my zafu did not prove sturdy enough.

I'm very happy with this product....and especially pleased that the price was so reasonable, given what they go for in the stores. It seems comparable to others I looked at being sold for $65. Other customers have noted that it's a bit too full, but I found that I did not need to adjust the filling at all.

At first, I was completely thrilled with this Zafu cushion: it is attractively designed and extremely comfortable. I use it to sit by my fireplace on cold mornings with my coffee and paper. But after only a few weeks, the fabric began to tear at the seams, and the buckwheat hulls began spilling out onto the floor. I was very upset, mostly because the cushion had seemed such a perfect solution for my needs. Instead of dealing with the hassle of returning the cushion, I decided to mend the torn fabric. I am not a great seamstress, so it looks a bit funky. Also, I'm concerned that more rips will occur because the fabric is not very durable, in fact it almost seems rotten because it disintegrates pretty quickly once a seam loosens and starts unraveling. Very disappointing.
