Pillow talk

[Knuckle Dragger]

Preface: I’m sick of these damn lumpy loose fill memory foam pillows. Last year I purchased 4 of these stupid things once nice and cozy pillows to end up pissed off and disappointed again. I don’t like feather pillows because they poke and smell funny and woven polyester fill annoys me for whatever reason. I’m afraid of getting a layered/sheet/molded memory foam because they’re pricey and may end up in the same boat, BUT will make an exception if I’m able to test them. What are you all using to keep you in dreamland?

I use a memory foam pillow, own two of them. I clean and take one out of rotation for weeks at a time so it can really retain it's shape. Otherwise they tend to go skinny on one side or edge. I also use a poly-fill pillow as the toss around, between the legs, prop up pillow that I replace about every six months or so.

What brand? So far I’m looking into PerformaSleep, Tempur-Pedic and Purple

I use the Tempur foam pillows. I use the hard ones. I use the Serta extra fluffy ones for the poly stuffed.

I like the crackhead pillow.

I’m afraid to ask

My Pillow is a sham. Many get hooked on the marketing but the pillows are mediocre at best. They wear quickly as well.

One thing few people think on when buying a pillow is the pillow's firmness in tandem with the firmness of the mattress. A nice pillow may leave your head an neck at an unpleasant angle depending on the mattress. I recommend trying multiple different pillows until the right one is found. Take the others back to the store.

I have a Sleep Number mattress. I adjust my side often, but I understand what you’re saying. My best friend said the same about My Pillow. I’m curious if these companies are still honoring returns during rona times.

TEMPUR-Cloud Breeze Dual Cooling bought a couple quite a while ago 5+ years and worth ever cent. Not the cheapest option but I like them.

Added to the list. Thanks for the link!

Hell yeah it is. My wife got us both one. The fill breaks own quickly and it shifts around constantly, which is exactly what it's not supposed to do. Garbage.

Microfiber filling is the way to go. Different weights availble, infinite shell options.

I used to work at a pillow factory so I know way to much about em.

I have one of those bamboo pillows. Not lumpy at all but still holds nicely like a memory foam. I think they are like $30. They are worth a try.

[Knuckle Dragger]

I was eyeing those as well

My bamboo pillows went flat at about the same rate as any other I have tried.
