    By time it starts to become comfortable, it is already worn out.

    Hi whistle6 ~ It depends on what you like.  Maybe you might need one that is made just for you!  Some people like them big, some small, some hard, some down, some foam, etc.  It really depends on personal taste.
    I'm not sure where you live but out here there is this guy who comes on the TV at the oddest times, like 3 or 4 in the morning saying he has manufactured and made the perfect pillow.  The next time his advertisement runs, I'll try and remember to jot his number down.  He guarantees them for x amount of days.  I can't remember the ad that well, but I'll keep my eyes and ears open for ya!

    My pillow.com . It is a $60 pillow. I have not tried it. But I wonder about it. I don't like a big fluffy pillow. They hurt my neck after a few nights. The my pillow looks like you can adjust the firmness.

    I don't have it in me to spend that much on a pillow.  Even with a 10 yr warranty.  Curious though, What have you heard that was bad? 
    The only thing I heard was that the gov forced them to stop running the BOGO offer...they had run it so long that it was not considered a sale.  There were 2 for $100 but not are like $60 each because the government stepped in.

  • I have one and I can honestly say it is the most comfortable pillow I ever had.  Thing about them is they get matted up and you have to fluff and tease them each night to get them back into shape or they feel lumpy and have hard spots.

    beat them around and shake it up and it's like new again and very nice to sleep on.

  • I'm glad you had a good experience. I just don't think I could pay that much for a pillow if it came with an endorsement from Santa. :)
    I did notice that were a few good reviews though.

  • Well to be honest.  I wouldn't either.  I happened to find it on a good deal for $20 and figured I would try it. The price is definitely exaggerated by the seller.

    Serta makes a cloned one that is pretty decent I got for about $10.   It works pretty good but the broken foam insert is filled with very small scraps instead of big chunks.  So it gets wadded up much faster and it's sorta a PITA because you need to take the insert out of the cotton and poly liner to get it back into shape.   Nice when it's fluffed but terrible when it gets matted down and isn't reset.

  • reading the links it sounds like the product is fine.   It's trouble around the advertisements.  Which in all truth sounds like a lawyer firm easy money grab really.

    Buy ones filled with down from the Eider duck .......there is nothing on this planet more comfy.....they are truly amazing as are duvets filled with down from them......they are both warm in winter and cool in summer.....A duvet for a normal 4'6" bed cost in access of £8000 .........A Queen or bigger, double that.....pillows ain't cheap either.....

    That's how much the cost in England about two years ago......most likely they are more expensive now......once you've tried one you wont want anything else.......our one must be twelve years old now and it for a bed two and a half meters wide.......the pillows are amazing to........your head just sinks into then as the feathers squish down....

    I found the perfect pillow and I haven't washed it in years. I don't want to risk ruining it. It probably reeks by now and I'm so used to it I can't even smell it, but I'm happy as long as the stench keeps everyone away from that pillow.

    Hi Patchouli~  With your given name and your suggestion/comment, you are hilarious!  Good for you!  For some reason,  I picture Linus and his blanket.  Patchouli and the pillow.  Don't worry.  No one will take it from you.  Sleeping is good. Stinky pillow or not.  It is all yours!  Sweet Dreams. This post was edited by Merlin at March 18, 2017 11:01 AM MDT
