HOMBYS Bed Pillow for Sleeping, White Pillow Insert with 100% Cotton Cover, Goose Feather, Goose Down and Polyester Filling, Standard Size Sleeping Pillow

Updated: I have washed & dried the pillows a couple of times. They came out great & fluffed up perfectly. I used a low dryer setting for 1.5 hours & have a front loader washer with blankets. (There's another debate if we should buy more. Which will happen at some point.)So far I have ordered 2 sets of pillows. The first set was so popular that I needed to order a second set. While they where ordered for one person, a second person kept taking them.This last set I took a pillow for myself. Normally, I don't do feather pillows because it not great with my allergies. No problems at all.In fact it's comfortable with my Memory foam mattress. I had issues with pillows and pushing my neck up or to a weird angle. Not this one, I can push it into any form I like for my head.I can see ordering more sets. I have not washed this pillow yet. I think it should do well in the wash. The material is thick & no feathers have leaked out.

These pillows are are worthy of the name! You know, pillow! They are soft. They squish down, perfectly... And poof back up, when not in use, like pillows are supposed to... I'm not sure what those reviews that complained about these pillows being flat, were all about... When they arrived they were in a very flat box. But when you take them out and fluff them like the instructions say to do, they are exactly what they're supposed to be... Some people said they were too poofy... I was a little worried about that, after I got them out of the box, as well, because of how poofy they became... But they squish down nicely under my head... They are perfect pillows, as far as I'm concerned... Someone said something about these pillows having a peculiar odor... I don't know what might have happened with the pillows that they ordered but the ones I received were perfectly normal, and I have a very sensitive sense of smell. I made sure to smell them deeply when they arrived because I wouldn't be able to sleep if they smelled bad and they were perfectly fine... So I hope this review helps... These were a good choice... I'm very satisfied with my purchase!

UPDATED 11/8/20: So I’ve had these pillows now two months to the day and am a little disappointed by how much they’ve worn in that time. I am a notorious pillow squisher so that might be a factor, but the loft isn’t nearly as cushy and well distributed as they were just a few weeks ago.I’ve also pulled out at least two feathers poking me in the past week, so I’m a little hesitant to fluff them in the dryer at the risk of dislodging many more. I still love these pillows and might even try another pair, but after only two months I think they might be better saved for guests or those who do not mash and manhandle their pillows (and sleep like normal people).FIRST REVIEWED 9/18/20: I spent hours reading reviews and comparing down vs down alternative pillows and couldn't be more pleased with these pillows. Initially I was skeptical breaking up the fluffing after being vacuum sealed (it felt like there were almost full wings of dense feather clumps at first) but after going back to read the feathers are inside an inner chamber, it made more sense.No weird smells, both pillows plumped up nicely, and I really REALLY love them. They feel like hotel pillows with a good weight to them without being too firm or too squishy. I'm mostly a stomach/side sleeper and they've been fine for me. Don't get too hot with cotton cases on them either. Just get em, they're perfect.

I read reviews of dozens of pillows. This one had the right descriptions. A comfortable pillow that fluffs and squishes as needed. My husband said he didn't know it was there. The ultimate compliment by him. It lifts my head just enough and doesn't hurt my neck. It is good for side or back sleeping. Also a good value. Durability to be determined, but even if they last only for a year they are worth it. I definitely recommend buying them.

I've used these pillows for a week now. They fluff out each morning and look great, but completely flatten down to pancakes at night when sleeping on them. Definitely a low- to medium-fill pillow. Not suitable for side sleepers. The pillow would flatten down too much to keep your head and neck in alignment. Fine for a back sleeper. You get what you pay for.Update: 29 Mar 21 - I just noticed that the smaller down feathers are starting to poke through the fabric cover of the pillow. After I took the pillow cases off to wash them, I ran my hand across the pillows and felt what I thought at first was very fine grit or sand. Turned out that feeling was the quill points of the very fine down feathers starting to come through the pillow casing. My pillow cases seem to be thick enough to prevent me from feeling the down feathers, but you can definitely feel them when I take the pillow cases off. If you buy these pillow, you might want to invest in pillow protectors as well.
