I have a Coop Eden that I splurged on. I really, really like it. They send you extra filling so you can add and take out to your liking. I was having a lot of neck pain and it helped so much.

I would never buy one, the owner is a big Trump supporter. But that's me. And according to my late mother and her friend the pillows are made by ISIS infiltrators. She had ordered one and for friend above. When friend told her this she put plastic bags on her hands when package arrived and then sent it back. I asked just how making pillows was going to bring down the country and their was no answer. Im with rodeomom for reason to not try. |

Well, I'm really glad I asked then. I didn't know anything about the business and the owner's background. Sounds like a crappy business and a crappy product. Glad I'll be able to avoid it.
The hunt will continue but because of the stay-at-home orders I can only dream of a new pillow at this point.

I’ve had mine for about 2/3 years. But I bought mine from QVC. He said the ones from QVC are better quality than the ones you can buy in a store. I really like mine. Having said that, I didn’t know anything about the man beforehand. Too expensive for me to throw away.

Just wanted to say I sleep on a memory foam pillow from Costco, plus a feather pillow from The Company Store. Perfect for me. TCS has lots of pillow choices. I buy the cheapest 100% feather pillows because they’re firmer/more comfortable than the more expensive down-filled ones. Then I replace them every few years when they break down ... easy to do, since they aren’t very expensive. (I also buy the TCS pillow protectors which come off easily for occasional washing.) They’re perfect, as far as I’m concerned. |

My DH had to have one. So I got it for him. He used it for 2 years and complained about it for almost a year. But he wouldn't let me replace it due to the cost. I finally just got him 2 new pillows and told him to throw out the 2 MPs. He just never got comfortable with his. Haha. Similar story. My husband is like the princess and the pea when it comes to bed pillows. About a year or so ago, we went to replace his and ended up buying like six different ones before one suited his precious little head. The My Pillow was one that got the ax quickly. He wanted to try it, but hated it once he got it. I now have about four passed over pillows in the linen closet available for guests to swap out if they don't like what's on their beds. #firstworldproblems Ha, this reminds me of a hotel I stayed in a few years ago. They had a pillow "menu" left on the nightstand. If the one on your bed didn't suit you, you could order a different type up  No charge of course. |

The My Pillow guy got press time AT A CORONAVIRUS BRIEFING to tell us God put Trump here to help us.
That God. What a joker.
CNN, thankfully, cut away from the self-serving "I'm making masks (for payment) so now I get an informercial during a Coronavirus briefing".
Read your bible!

I am not sure what type of pillow you like but I have a coop home goods bamboo pillow that I love. I just saw a consumer report and coop home goods was at the top. If I remember correctly, the my pillow was more toward the bottom. Good luck finding a pillow you like. There are a lot of different kinds and styles out there, Hope you can find one that meets your needs. Coop home goodsThank you for sharing! I too would love to find a perfect pillow for me! I am mostly a side sleeper and sometimes a back sleeper. I prefer a soft, fluffy pillow, but not so high that my head is tilted, but not completely flat during the middle of the night. Which pillow do you have and what made you choose it? Thanks again! |

There are doctors and nurses and healthcare advocates and administrators and researchers who I’m sure have actual scientific things to share about this virus, where we stand with it as a country, what we can expect, and discuss the new stuff about possible treatments and vaccine options. But fuck all those educated people. Let’s let the My Pillow guy talk to America during a press conference for Coronavirus. That makes total sense! |

I tried it (not knowing about the politics of the owner). My son went through a phase of his pillow being too hot. He did not like the "my pillow" either but the commercial probably influenced him to try it. Our "My pillow" is fluffy but just not to anyone's liking. It did seem cooler at first. Would not try again. We just ordered some pillows online as now my daughter is complaining about her pillow. We bought from Kohls with delivery. Our beds have become a safe and cozy refuge everyone is sleeping 1-2 hours more per night I think. I hope they weren’t the cheap ones - I’m shocked those can be legally labeled pillow it’s more like a very small comforter because it’s barely got any fill in it. Sure it was puffy when it showed up but use it once and it’s flat. They were $5 and they are on the guest bed - not my problem lol |

If I had ever thought of getting one -- which I hadn't, actually -- I would have said forget it after that farce in the Rose Garden earlier. Among all the other stupidities that he uttered he spouted one of my least favorite lines -- "God was taken out of our schools"... I DETEST THIS TYPE OF THEOLOGY! ugh If the ones who say this would read the bible that they supposedly know so well they would see that God is with us wherever we are. God is not confined to one place, and you cannot take God out of anything. This belief is from the early Hebrew scriptures when the Israelites believed that God was in the Ark. When the Ark was stolen they believed that God was no longer with them. I'm sure that the "you took God out of schools" types would agree that the Jewish people, and then the Christians, moved beyond that theology. Yet that's exactly what they're saying when they suggest that we, mere humans, can tell God where or where not to be.  eta: And also, while I'm already mad here... They seem to think that only prayers spoken out loud are valid, because by saying we took God out of schools they implying that there is no prayer there. Which is of course wrong. Personally I say a prayer every morning during the time of silence, for whichever group of kids I'm sitting in front of. My prayer is no less valid than one that might be spoken out loud. growl.... |

Even if the My Pillow guy wasn’t such a Trump loving troll I still wouldn’t buy one because I find foam pillows of any kind to be way the heck too hot to sleep on. I like softer feather pillows the best, but even those get pretty hot when I’m sleeping on them and I end up having to flip it to the cooler side.
The best pillow I ever had was a down pillow that came from Select Comfort but that thing was like $150 retail which is insane. I had a coupon that brought the price down a little but it was still more money than I like to spend on stuff like that. Since then I’ve gotten acceptable down pillows from Costco and Tuesday Morning and they were both decent.

This is the best pillow ever! I got rid of neck pain after I bought. You totally customize it by removing fill. You can buy it on Amazon.

Snuggle-Pedic Ultra-Luxury Bamboo Shredded Memory Foam Pillow Combination with Adjustable Fit and Zipper Removable Kool-Flow Breathable Cooling Hypoallergenic Pillow Cover (Queen)
Would definitely recommend.

Mine didn’t come with additional filling so that you could customize it. It is old enough now that I should probably be looking at getting a new one. Sorry I am not much help but good luck. ETA - I randomly picked this one off the internet years ago, because of the reviews and the chopped up filling. It is the type that I had a kid. I sleep on my side with one arm under my pillow and I like to be able to shape it, if that makes sense. |
