Had the body pillow for a long time now I think it deflated a little bit. It has a soft feeling cover and it is very elastic, feels like 2 Way Tricot if you already have a cover. Pro it feels nice and it is squishy but it will conform to you and hold some shape. Down side it is bean bag like that the beads will move quite a bit and hard to put covers on. Also it wont stand up but you can lean it against something. Also the 160cm covers cost a bit more. Overall i love it, just be nice if it were a bit stiffer/more full. I do have cheaper pillow filled ones and similiar alternative that are perfectly acceptable but it is a different experience is what I'm saying.
