I probably have to break down and get some new down pillows. I've been trying to avoid it. I need a pillow that you can smush under your neck and it stays there. Lots of pillows seem like they'll work in the store but they don't stay put. I did find one down substitute from At Home that is working pretty well for now. Super cheap so it was worth a try and so far so good, but I'm not sure it will hold up for long.

Is there anything more subjective and aggravating than a pillow? I bought two $50 pillows which were less than restful. Then, on a whim, I bought a cheap pillow at Aldi's and love it!

I replaced all of my pillows with MyPillows. I wash them every few months and they are like new. I sleep with a medium and a firm so I can change them around.

No more foam crumbling, neck pain, loose feathers or allergies! I sleep with the My Pillow travel pillows also.

My dogs have expensive foam dog beds. I bought 2 My Pillow dog beds and they prefer them.

Changing pillows is a big pain. Didn't use to be, is it because we are getting older, or do they make them different?

Changing mattresses isn't much better.

Hope you find a pillow you like.

I have neck issues that make me miserable. Years ago, I happened upon microbead pillows piled in a bin at a local store. There were various shapes and sizes. I chose a smaller one in the shape of a star-- turned out to be a Dallas Cowboy promo, of all things. I could not believe how much it helped me to relax all the tight neck muscles.

They are comfy. They fill in the neck curve. It's like a lumbar pillow for your neck. Avoid the log and the U-shaped. Those felt uncomfortable.

Beware: they are not decorative, by any means. I have a butterfinger one, a heart and a few more. Some go by Iscream or just Squishy.

When the squishy pillows are overly filled, they aren't as comfortable. They need to be broken in. I have had two that were perfect from the start. All the rest took a bit of time to acquire a .level of comfort.

Worth a try.
