MaxiLuxurious Hotel Style King Size Pillows - Single Pack - Soft and Comfortable - 300 Thread Count - Relieves Stress and Pressure on The Back and Neck (King Size 20x36)

As anyone who read my review on the  Sleep Better Iso-Cool Memory Foam Pillow, Gusseted Side Sleeper ,Standard , there is a constant war between my neck and my head. I don't know why. I assume something must have gone wrong with a chiropractic visit from 2013, but because it comes and goes I have never gone back to revisit. However my quest for a proper sleep continues as I upgrade my bedding components piece by piece. I think, after spending nearly $2,500 overall, that I might be close.I got this pillow initially as a second pillow - a body pillow that isn't - but then it occurred to me to at least try it for my head and neck comfort. The pillow is longer than I expected. It fit rather snug into king-size pillow cases that I got as part of a bed set I bought. Snug meaning, of course, that it took me nearly 10 minutes to get it into the case.I was skeptical. I pressed on the pillow and saw that it barely rejected my hand. Thinking this was a mistake (I have another pillow with a similar design where it had no support whatsoever), I decided to chance it. My head didn't go all the way down as my hand did; rather it went about 70% of the way and left a cushion that wasn't firm, wasn't soft, was just right for the back of my head (which often experiences pain due to the firmness of the pillows I've used). What I found was that I was actually getting sleepy just laying on the pillow for a time. Imagine that - a pillow that makes me want to sleep, rather than me forcing myself to sleep based on what time it is.If I had to describe the pillow in better terms, I would say that it feels like a pillow that you'd find at a Marriott hotel.There was a problem though, a minor one. Another reviewer commented on how far down into the pillow you sink. If you sleep on your back this isn't a problem. In fact it might be appealing, because the sides of the pillow come up HIGH in this position, covering your ears. But if you're a side sleeper, this created a bit of discomfort where it was covering my mouth. I had to do this weird business where I laid down on my side, and then pressed down on the side that was coming up, somewhat to push air under my head. It's hard to describe. But it did work, and I was able to sleep that way without neck pain and without constantly tossing and turning.I'm going to give it some more nights to see if everything goes hunky dory. If so then I'll know that I'm on the right track with this pillow. So far so good though.

I, like millions of others, have been on a lifelong journey to find the perfect pillow. To my families dismay, every store I go in I have to check out the pillows. I look at them, squeeze them, squish them and maybe even buy one. I excitedly go to bed at night and find out that once again I have purchased an overpriced uncomfortable pillow. I know, everyone has a different idea of what a comfortable pillow should be. I personally don't like flat or too puffy and I don't want to feel like I'm sleeping on a brick, but I am a side sleeper so I do like some support and fluffiness. So, after searching Amazon and reading many reviews I decided to order this pillow. I was a little hesitant since I couldn't see or squish it first, but I know that Amazon's return policy is great so I figured if it was horrible I would just return it. I received it in 2 days with free Prime shipping. The pillow was pretty compacted for shipping so I stuck it in the drier for a few minutes to fluff it up. This down alternative pillow feels like shredded memory foam but there was no smell. It fluffed up good and was a little hard getting it into a standard pillow case. I went to bed trying not to get my hopes up too high. I awoke the next morning feeling great! I found a great pillow! Well, I have been using it for several months now and it is still a good pillow, but not great. It seems to get compacted and for some reason triangle shaped after a few nights and fluffing it in the drier helps that but it isn't really convenient to keep putting it in the drier every other day. Therefore, I am satisfied for now, but my search for the perfect pillow continues....

UPDATE 9-2-20I just bought another, and BE CAREFUL! This is a Morning Star trying to be passed off as a Mastertex. The pillow tag has no brand name on it, as my original one does, and says made in China.***The real Mastertex, no knockoffs.Wow! If I could find my picture of the 4' high pile of pillows I finally got rid of 2 mo ago, I'd post it. For years, and years, did I say years?, I have bought so many different type pillows, just to waste so much money & sleepless nights & body aches. The best pillow I ever had previous to this one was a ventilated memory foam, but it got too hot at times. Now, that type pillow has been replaced by a more latex form. I've had it for maybe 10 years though, until it got too flat from just pure love use. I wanted something that had the same softness & support without the heat though. I remembered that I did like ONE pillow before the memory foam, but couldn't remember the name. So I went back to KMart & had a worker there help me with the name. Alas, Mastertex came up in her handheld stock checker, but they didnt have any. So I looked it up on Amazon & found it!! It's so soft on the head, but yet so supportive, without pushing the head up. It conforms to every position. It's been 5 mos, with multiple tossings in the dryer. I do have to give in & finally wash it, and hoping it's still wonderful after. Again, YEARS!!! OMG!!! Just buy this thing already!!BEWARE, it must say Mastertex on the tag. Best bet, buy through KMART.

These pillows are so comfortable. As the description described when I ordered them they are "super standard" size so they really do need a queen size pillow case. This is NOT a criticism the size of them makes them much more comfortable than an ordinary standard size. These pillows are so well filled! In the morning when I make the bed I give them a quick plumping and they're just like brand new. Due to arthritis in my neck most mornings when I first get up I can barely move my head. Since sleeping on these pillows my neck isn't quite as stiff as usual - these pillows give the neck wonderful support. Another positive point is my head doesn't sweat as it did with the previous pillows I had - the air circulates through these pillows very well. If you want a stellar pillow try this one!

Received my pillows 4 days early and have to say, I just love them! My husband and I each got one and they feel so nice and fluffy, I thought I was at a Five star hotel! I sure hope they last. If they do, I will certainly be buying more! They seem like a high quality pillow for a very reasonable price.

I read all reviews before buying this pillow. This is such a great comfortable pillow. A little stiff at first but that is not reason to not purchase this pillow. Super soft after a few days and great support

This orignally felt softer then i expected. After a month of using my neck and shoulder pain is gone. Can be shaped for better comfort.

tried so many varieties of pillows, this was was for me, not too firm, not too soft, just right.Had to get larger pillow cases, but well worth it.Very pleased with this pillow.
