Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Azo dyes in polyester textiles and Microplastic shedding from fill and cover on the Blazing Needles and not on the Serena & Lily.
  • We flag Azo dyes and colorant leaching, Coating degradation and particle shedding and Water repellent finish composition (PFAS vs alternatives) on the Serena & Lily and not on the Blazing Needles.
  • The Blazing Needles is Polyester fill with polyester cover where the Serena & Lily is Outdoor pillow cover, likely performance textile with durable water repellent (DWR) treatment, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 55 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Blazing Needles is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Serena & Lily grade, at 45% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.
