Size and Weight

Material and Smell

Pros:

Cons:

• "First problem was there was a delay in the shipping of the cover I purchased separately for it."

• "I've asked them to make sure they make clear that they changed their policy on their listing on Amazon so no one else gets the wrong impression like I did."
