Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed components, Mineral oil respiratory risk (inhalation), Surface buildup and degradation over time and Flammability on the Pledge and not on the West Elm.
  • We flag Formaldehyde-based finishing resins, Flame-retardant additives (unspecified) and DWR coating degradation and leaching on the West Elm and not on the Pledge.
  • The Pledge is mineral oil, argan oil blend where the West Elm is polyester or polyester blend outdoor cushion, likely DWR-treated, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Pledge is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the West Elm grade, at 35% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
