KIRKTON HOUSE Pumpkin Pillows

EDITOR’S NOTE: We bought and reviewed these in the fall of 2022. Aldi sold sherpa pumpkin pillows again in September of 2023, 2024, and 2025, offering jumbo pillows for $14.99 and smaller 11-inch pillows for $9.99. See our update at the end of this post about how the pillows we bought have held up to three seasons of use. 

Autumn has always been my favorite season. I’ve always preferred colder weather over hot. My birthday is also in the fall, which adds to the appeal. I don’t always care for the scary Halloween stuff as much, though. I like more general fall items and natural decorations. This year, we grew two small pumpkins in our backyard garden, so I have a little bit more interest in pumpkins.

As a result, the Aldi KIRKTON HOUSE Pumpkin Pillows (called the Huntington Home Sherpa Pumpkin Pillows when we bought them in 2022) looked cute and fun to get for the fall.

These pillows are fluffy and come in several colors. We bought the light brown and white pillows. They cost $14.99 each in 2022.

In the years since we bought these, Aldi has offered more colors and patterns, including green, paid, and a floral print in 2025. In 2025, the “jumbo” pillows cost $14.99, but Aldi has not yet advertised what their dimensions are. Also in 2025, you can buy 11-inch pumpkin pillows for $9.99.

These pillows are Aldi Finds, so they’re only in stores for a short time. Each store gets one shipment, and after that sells out, they’re gone unless Aldi decides to bring them back next year. Aldi does not offer online ordering for products that are not in stock at your local store.

They’re both about the size of your average throw pillow, or perhaps a little on the larger side. They’re also both generally soft and comfortable and are good for leaning against while you enjoy a good book or watch a Halloween-themed movie.

Here’s more information about the pillows we bought, according to their tags:

• Fun and festive
• Soft feel
• Great seasonal décor
• Each pillow measures 15 inches (38 centimeters) in diameter
• OEKO-TEX certified
• Fiber shell and filling are both 100% polyester
• Spot clean
• Made in China

The white pillow we purchased soon developed a good-sized tear on the side of the pumpkin by the stem. We were able to sew it up, but it’s a good idea to be gentle with these pillows. (Hint: don’t let children sit on them.)

These are still good decorations, though. They can be placed on display on a couch or chair, or they can be placed on the floor as part of a display. They look festive and cozy, and we like them.

The Verdict:

These cute sherpa pumpkin pillows  at Aldi are good decorations for the fall, and they add a nice touch to other autumn-themed decorations. I would buy more of these, and I also recommend them. Be aware they’re a little fragile. One of our pumpkins got a hole we had to sew up.

UPDATE (8/28/2025) — We eventually had to throw away the white pumpkin pillow because the fabric was tearing and pulling away from the stem on all sides, no matter how many times we mended it with hand sewing. The brown pumpkin has held up okay, though, and we’ve had it for three years now.
