Pillow Perfect Annie Indoor/Outdoor Throw Pillows Review (2026)
In-depth review of the Pillow Perfect Annie pair: reversible floral and stripe design, plush fill, and outdoor durability.
Pillow Perfect Reversible Floral Stripe Indoor/Outdoor Throw Pillows, 2 Count, 18.5x18.5 Inch, Brown/Orange Annie
Two finished outdoor pillows in one: bold floral on one side, stripe on the other, with plush fill already inside.
Our verdict
The Pillow Perfect Annie pair is the only finished pillow here built for outside: two pillows with plush fill included, reversible between a bold floral and a stripe, and made to resist weather and fading. Buy it for a patio, porch, or sunroom where a pillow has to work outdoors. Skip it if you want a plain solid, or if 18.5 inches is too large for the chair.
What we like
- The pair arrives as finished pillows with plush fill included, so there is nothing else to buy.
- Reversible design gives two looks: a bold floral front and a stripe reverse, so you can flip the pair when the mood changes.
- The fabric is made to resist weather and fading, which is the point of an indoor and outdoor pillow.
What to watch out for
- The Annie pattern is bold, so it suits plain furniture better than a patterned sofa.
- At 18.5 inches, the pillows are slightly larger than the standard 18 inch cover size, so they do not swap into 18 inch covers.
- Outdoor fabric feels firmer and less soft than an indoor velvet or chenille cover.
Who it is for
Patio, porch, and sunroom owners who want finished outdoor pillows with no extra purchases.
Two looks in one pair
The Annie design is reversible: a bold floral in brown, orange, and teal on one side, and a stripe on the other. That matters outdoors, where a single pattern can tire quickly and where the reverse gives you a second look without a second purchase. The floral is the statement side and suits plain patio furniture; the stripe is the calmer side for days when the floral feels like too much.
Fill and feel
Unlike most picks here, these arrive as finished pillows with plush fill already inside, so there is nothing else to buy and no cover to stuff. The fill is plush rather than firm, which suits leaning back on a patio chair. Outdoor fabric feels firmer and less soft than indoor velvet or chenille, which is the trade for weather resistance: the fabric is made to shed damp and hold its colour in sun.
Size and fit
At 18.5 inches square, these are slightly larger than the standard 18 inch cover, so they do not swap into 18 inch covers you already own. That half inch is also why they look substantial on patio furniture, where smaller pillows can look lost. Measure the chair seat before buying: on a narrow chair, an 18.5 inch pillow can overhang the edges.
How it stacks up
Against the Utopia inserts, Pillow Perfect wins on completeness: it is a finished pillow, while Utopia needs covers. Against the MIULEE velvet covers, it wins outdoors and loses indoors, where velvet is softer and warmer. Against the Meekio linen covers, which are also listed for indoor and outdoor use, Pillow Perfect is the more weather-focused pick, while Meekio is the softer indoor-looking one.

Questions, answered
Can these stay outside in rain?
They are made to resist weather, but no throw pillow should stay soaked. Bring them under cover in heavy rain and let them dry fully before storing.
Which side should face out?
Either. The floral side is the bolder look for plain furniture, and the stripe side is calmer. Flip the pair when you want a change without buying new pillows.
Do they fit 18 inch covers?
No. At 18.5 inches they are slightly larger than a standard 18 inch cover, so treat them as finished pillows rather than inserts for your existing covers.
