Are the 8 star pavilon cushions better than the 4 star?

[azbuyer]

Been havign some trouble finding a thread that shows both side by side. Mark @ ERD has been showing me 8-star pavilion main cushions and I am not sure what the difference is between those and the 4-star versions.

Thanks

They aren't better, but sometimes have a different look. I am sure Mark can pull a 4-pav one for you for comparison if you'd like.

Here is one from James Allen that isn't available but is a 4-pav. see how it has that cross in the middle? A lot of people don't like that look:

But really, Mark is THE MAN when it comes to finding cushions. We bought mine from him and would go back in a heartbeat. You have nothing to worry about, he won't sell you a dog.

And here is a good reference thread. The most important thing about cushions is buy with your eyes and buy what you love. There will be a consumer for every type of cushion out there.

And another great cushion thread reference:

Both have a ton of pictures with the plots to help you decide what you like.
