MyPillow Bedding Bed Pillows for Sleeping King Size, Gusseted for Back, Stomach or Side Sleepers - My Pillow Premium Pillow [King, Firm]

This is my 2nd MyPillow, I just had to throw out my old one that I'd had since I think 2011. Fourteen years is a pretty good run for a pillow, I put it in the washer and the fabric gave out at a seam and that was all she wrote for that pillow. I got the queen size/firm and it seems to be just what I needed.

When my residual whiplash injuries had been worsened by the onset of arthritis in my neck this year, I tried to take a holistic approach to managing these symptoms: ergonomics at work, neck exercises, and sleeping posture. I confess I was skeptical of claims of how the MyPillow could help with neck issues--I'm a firm believer in a healthy dose of skepticism. However, I have been very pleasantly surprised.I previously had a memory foam pillow, which was comfortable to lay on, but had a 'one-size-fits-all' loft level. The fill did not adjust to support the particular firmness, pillow elevation, and contours that my head/neck needed. The lack of head support and misaligned neck vertebrae throughout the night meant I'd wake up with pain and decreased range of motion. I researched pillows, and decided to give the MyPillow a try.I figured if I didn't like it, I'd just send it back. No harm, no foul.I'm pleased with how well this pillow has helped my neck pain issues. The multiple-piece foam-fill allows the pillow to 'cradle' and surround my head and neck: both head and neck are supported all around. I don't feel any strain my neck or head from only partial support like I previously had with my memory foam pillow.However, there are two VERY important factors to consider when buying this pillow. 1) it is not one-size-fits-all. If you select the wrong pillow fill/firmness, you will not like it: your head will be too elevated or not enough, and you will have neck discomfort. 2) if you don't follow the pre-use instructions to place the pillow in the dryer for 15 minutes, the foam will not expand to designed capacity, and the pillow won't have the right loft/support. I believe most of the negative criticisms of this pillow are based on wrong sizing and ignoring pre-use care instructions.I highly recommend the MyPillow--just be SURE to follow the sizing instructions (and subtract a level if you like your pillows softer) and put it in the dryer first.

An okay pillow. I don't understand what all the hype was about the "My Pillow" craze. I've purchased pillows for 1/2 the price or less at other stores and they were just as good. if not better. It's just a pillow. Nothing special about it.

Before purchasing I read all of the reviews, the pro's and the con's. Some said it was too firm, others said it was too lumpy. I am used to sleeping on a down feather pillow but it does me in due to allergies so I decided to try the Premium Yellow series which is the pillow recommended for me. Like everyone else has stated, the pillow comes flat and you find it hard to believe that it will ever resemble anything close to a pillow that you can sleep on but I had no fear. I tossed it into the dryer like the directions said to do and it fluffed up and became a nice, full, fluffy, squeezable, comfortable pillow. Yes the pillow is lumpy as others have stated in their reviews, but once you sink your head into it your head does feel like it is floating on a cloud. The first night I used My Pillow I had the best night's sleep that I've had in months.... years. When I take my afternoon power naps I quickly fall asleep into a deep sleep. I have degenerative disc damage in my neck. I am always in pain. I usually wake up all through the night every two hours. Since using this pillow I am now getting 8 hours of sleep a night, only waking up once (when the dogs want out) and I quickly fall back asleep. This pillow may not be a pillow for everyone but it is the right pillow for me. Prior to this pillow I tried the "Bamboo pillow" but it was way to hard for me. I gave it to my Brother who likes a firm pillow and he loves it. I am going to buy another one and give it to my Son. He too likes a softer pillow and has neck and back problems. I hope it helps him like it has helped me. This pillow is incredible. Thank you!MyPillow Premium Series Bed Pillow, Yellow Level Least Firm, Standard/Queen

Let me start by mentioning that I have been a MyPillow user and advocate for 10 years, owning a standard and king size pillow during that time. With that said, it came time to order a new one. I did my homework and went to the MyPillow website. Decided I wanted the premium king size firm pillow. Since I had an Amazon gift card, I decided to purchase through Amazon. Upon arriving and opening it, I immediately noticed the pillow just felt cheap and a lack of stuffing for a “firm” pillow. I put it in the dryer for 15 as directed to fluff it up. When I took it out I noticed only about 3/4 of the pillow was filled. And as suspected, the material was cheap. The cover tore. Amazon, please be aware that this has nothing to do with you, but with one of the products being sold with you. MyPillow has gone cheap and seems to be using inferior materials, and cutting corners. And worst if all, the cost is NOT cheap. I ended up using the new stuffing and adding it to my old pillow and sewed it closed. I will not buy MyPillow again.
