This is what I was wanting, but with more versatility than I was expecting! I bought a large modern style couch with no arms and a low adjustable backing so I haven't been able to lounge with my usual throw pillow. I was trying to find something that would allow me to sit up like you can against the back of normal couch but also lounge like you would against a couch arm. This is perfect! I can also fold it up or lay it flat when I have company to show off my pretty modern couch. This would also be really good for sitting or laying on the floor (which I do often) so I can't get double the use out of it. This saves me from having to find a floor cushion. So I'm very pleased!
