Is the cover removable and washable?

Yes. The cover has a hidden zipper at the back and comes off. Check the care label before washing; a cold gentle cycle and line drying protect the cotton blend and the light sheen.

What size is the Carlus lumbar pillow?

It measures 14 inches high by 20 inches wide and about 0.5 inches thick. That is a standard lumbar size, so it fits most bench and chair backs.

Does it come with an insert?

It is sold as one throw pillow. If the fill feels thin for your taste, a slightly fuller 14 x 20 insert will give it more shape.

Will the terracotta stripe match my sofa?

The stripe pairs natural with terracotta, a warm earthy tone that sits well with cream, gray, olive and wood furniture. Order one first if you are matching an exact color.

Is it firm enough to use as back support?

No. At half an inch thick it is a decorative accent, not a support cushion. Use a firmer lumbar pillow if you need back support.

How does it compare with a solid lumbar pillow?

The stripe adds pattern that solid pillows lack, and the removable cover is a practical plus. Solid pillows in heavier fabrics may feel more substantial.
