Room×Lab Review · Review updated September 28, 2026

Laundered Linen owners mostly like the look and washability, but the Amber shade and the linen's feel divide opinion

Crate & Barrel shows 345 ratings (4.6 average) for this listing, but that display pools reviews from many related Laundered Linen products, plus some reviews about only inserts, delivery or store service, so it is not a rating of the Amber 36x16 cover or a count of its owners. We read all 247 distinct written reviews in the pool. Most are for 20x20 covers in about 20 colors. Others are 36x16 lumbar covers (White, Ivory, Dark Grey, Sage, Terracotta, Ink Black), a few 18x12 lumbar covers, Organic Laundered Linen covers, and pillows sold with feather or down-alternative inserts. Only one review names the exact Amber 36x16 cover and six name the Amber 20x20, so Amber color impressions rest mainly on the square size, and findings on 36x16 fit and use come from other colors. Crate & Barrel has not confirmed that these versions share the same fabric or construction, so findings stay attributed to the color, size or sub-line stated. Most reviews give no ownership period; those that do mostly describe weeks to a few months, and only two report about a year or more.

Room×Lab rating: 6.9 out of 10 (limited confidence). Owners across Crate & Barrel's Laundered Linen family largely like the look, washability and 36x16 lumbar size. The key caveat: only one review covers the exact Amber 36x16, long-term wear is thinly documented, and some owners find the linen scratchy or the shade off.

  • Amber shade: mostly liked, but can read orange or dull: Linked records: 5 favorable and 2 critical mentions of the Amber color, mostly from 20x20 covers. — The one Amber 36x16 review praises the color as a decorative pillow on a bed, and Amber 20x20 owners call it glowing or a good match for an ochre throw. One owner found it a little too orange and wanted a more gold tone; another found it much duller than expected and the fabric thin.
  • Linen feel: mostly soft, sometimes scratchy on the back: Linked records: 29 favorable and 7 critical mentions of hand feel across colors, sizes and both sub-lines. — Critics describe a scratchy, raw back (Dark Grey 36x16), rough linen on both sides (Ink Black 36x16, better for decoration than holding) and an itchy back (Organic Moody Mauve with insert); two of seven critical mentions are mild. An Indigo viscose claim is unverified. No one describes the Amber 36x16's feel; Amber 20x20 owners call it lovely or very thin.
  • Washing and wear: good early results, little long-term evidence: Linked records: 18 favorable and 0 critical mentions of washing and wear, mostly over one to a few months. — Owners report easy zip-off removal, covers that held up after a few washes, no bleeding or ironing after a wash and dry, and no pilling; two praise washability without describing a wash. Owners report about a year (Ivory 36x16) and almost two years (Organic Ink Black 20in) of use. None covers Amber or reports fading, shrinkage or seam failure.

Before buying

Choose this cover for a warm lumbar accent on a queen or king bed, but confirm the reverse color, current price and final-sale terms first, since some owners found Amber more orange or duller than expected and some find the linen scratchy.
