Cotton Velvet Pillow Cover

Room×Lab Review · Review updated August 28, 2026

Owners of single covers and sets praise rich color and soft velvet; isolated complaints cite shedding, split seams and a tear

Room×Lab read 241 distinct written reviews from Quince's single Cotton Velvet Pillow Cover and set-of-two listings, which are sold in 12x20, 20x20 and 22x22 sizes. Another 12 star ratings came without written comments. Most construction praise describes the covers when new; one owner reports about a year of use. Quince marked every review as coming from a verified owner and as incentivized, and does not say what the incentive was. The reviews below pair three detailed complaints, including that year of use, with typical praise; complaints are rare, as 225 of 254 ratings are five stars.

Room×Lab rating: 8.2 out of 10 (limited confidence). Owners of the single cover and the set of two praise its color, softness and value. Construction praise mostly describes new covers; the one owner reporting a year of use saw seams split. Other caveats are isolated: shedding fuzz, a slight tear while fitting an insert, and flattened pile.

• Color and finish: 141 favorable mentions; 14 concerns — Across the single and set-of-two listings, owners often praised rich, elevated color. Concerns included unexpected undertones, differences between covers bought in the same color, discoloration, creases that would not relax, and flattened pile.
• Construction and durability: 146 favorable mentions; 14 concerns — Many owners on both listings called the covers well made or sturdy, usually when new. The isolated problem reports: one set-of-two owner's seams split after about a year, velvet fuzz shed onto inserts when covers were changed, pile wore, fabric felt thin, and one cover tore slightly while an insert was fitted.
• Softness and lounging comfort: 59 favorable mentions; 1 concern — Softness was one of the most consistent owner positives. One owner still found the velvet less plush, thinner, or firmer than expected.

Before buying

Choose it for rich color and soft cotton velvet if dry-clean-only care and buying an insert separately suit you. On arrival, check the seams, zipper, pile and color match between covers, and keep the tags and packaging until you have.
