Amazon Brand – Pinzon Down Alternative Pillow - Medium Density for Back Sleepers, Standard

EDIT: Check date I did review and it's now March 2021 and they're all still just as full as when I got them! The test is working to get them into their cases! They haven't deflated AT ALL. LOVE THEM. And at this rate, doesn't look like I'll need new ones for a LOOONG TIME!________________________________________I JUST ORDERED A FIRM STANDARD for a pillow sham on my reading chair. I wanted something to make the chair more comfy with just a little more support when I read for hours. THE FIRM WORKS GREAT FOR ME for this. The FIRM is NOT rock hard, just makes my back more comfortable sitting up and reading (I have bad disks).NOT using the firm as a bed pillow, the MEDIUMS are perfect for that, but for my reading chair the FIRM is SUPERB.ANOTHER EDIT: OK it's now Nov 19th and pillows I bought are just as great. Perfect support, not too hard, not too soft and perfect for sleep or reading while in bed. BEST pillows I've had. I'm ordering another. These are great to also put in a sham and add to your favorite reading chair. Bliss.EDIT: Just took a nap with my new pillow, I sleep on my stomach/side, and it was HEAVENLY. I have neck issues and it felt fluffy and soft, with just enough support. IT'S PERFECT FOR ME for sleeping and propping up to read in bed._____________________________________________________PROS:PACKAGING - VERY impressed with how it was packed. Packed securely within plastic inside a Pinzon box. I thought it would be really compressed, but it wasn't and fluffed up within minutes. How well a pillow is packaged is HUGE to me as I have seen pillows in open packaging and think ANYTHING could have crawled in there and I have allergies so a WELL-PACKED pillow is a big deal. FYI, I DID let it air out for awhile, an hour or so, because packaging usually leaves some type of scent.MATERIALS - Seems like quality materials and well made.PRICE: I was impressed at how good a pillow I got for the price. Although price isn't my first consideration for what I think of as an important purchase: a GOOD PILLOW for MY needs.STUFFING/FULLNESS - OK here's where it gets tricky. It depends on what you use It for and how soft/firm you want it, how you sleep or if you want it as an extra pillow to sit up and read in bed. THIS is DEFINITELY what I would consider more towards SOFT/FLUFFY MEDIUM. IT DOES have support, but gives pretty easily and I can scrunch it up.I wanted more as an extra pillow to read in bed (and I have a thick reading pillow I stick against the wall and then prop a couple pillows next to it).CONS: NONE for me, but for others....depends what your preference is. THIS IS A SMOOSHY pillow with give, but thick enough to offer support. JUST what I was looking for. If you want a flatter, harder pillow, may not be for you.___________________________________________________________________________TIP I have found useful as I am an allergy sufferer and also don't like to have to wash pillows all the time.I do DOUBLE pillow protectors on ALL my bed pillows. Allergies seem to bother me most at night. I find it really helpful to use an AllerSoft on top of a slightly-stiffer Eco Living protector. I just found these two combined especially good, different types of barriers, but whatever works for you. Also, once washed, neither are like the SUPER PLASTIC, CRINKLY type. If you need WATERPROOF, I can't attest to that, but these work for me. I ALWAYS wash both first before using.This helps for a couple reasons:ONE, It allows me just to take off top protector and wash often, while still protecting the pillow. I do wash both protectors about every two or three months.TWO, having both means I rarely, if ever, have to wash the pillow. I also buy new pillows about once every year or so.THREE, helps with allergies. Even though we change our pillow cases or shams often, our faces and heads are lying on our pillows for a lot of hours every day and cases and shams do little to really protect our pillows, or us, from dust mites and anything else floating in the air. For ALLERGY SUFFERERS, doing this double protector has helped me a lot.

Purchased this for a toddler so I wanted it to be nice and soft. As soon as I opened it I was happy to see that it’s exactly what I needed. Good quality and price. Can’t go wrong with this pillow.

This is a great value for a standard pillow. Came nicely packaged and very comfortable. Not sure how long loft will last, but great right out of the box, and at this price if it starts to degrade we can just order new ones. 8 and 10-year-olds very pleased with it and think it's a "grown up" pillow because of the loft.

Great pillow. Originally got the firm but it was too firm for a stomach sleeper. But the medium is perfect! Holds its shape really well, doesn't flatten out. Very visually comfortable. Would buy again

Having used this pillow for a couple weeks now, it feels just about right to me. Not too firm and not too squishy, just right.I toss and turn a lot while sleeping and this pillow has always felt good whether I'm on my back, side, or belly.We'll see how it holds up over time, but so far, I'm very satisfied.

For a "medium-density" pillow, this had a bit too much stuffing for me. After a few months, it hasn't packed down. This may be fine for some people, but be warned.

I ordered two of these pillows. Out of the box once they puffed up, they were both soft enough at first. Once they were fully expanded each of them on their own was too big to comfortably fit under my head and neck (and I'm someone who usually sleeps with two pillows and my arm under my head!). We have tried to keep using them and have ended up with sore necks. If I could return them I would.

Who NEEDS a $60 pillow? This pillow is great for the price and it was super fun to take out of the vaccum seal packaging. Its consistently fluffy. 5 stars

hopefully with this can offer some relief we will give it a shot and after 2 weeks with it im happy with the item its PERFECT and helps out a lot ..well worth the purchase and you will also

Había comprado tres almohadas sin mucho éxito de comodidad hasta que encontré esta. Estoy muy contenta, es suave y no despierto por adormecimiento en el oído. Muy recomendable

Nice soft pillow

La almohada es excelente. Simplemente dulces sueños.

I like a small pillow. Wouldn't want one any bigger than this one. If you like a very small pillow to sleep on this might be a bit big for you.
