Xtreme Comforts Standard Bed Pillow for Sleeping Adjustable Shredded Memory Foam Pillows with Removable Cooling Cover Fluffy Pillows

The pillows are excellent, they are soft but too soft and offer great support for my neck and i am sleeping better because I finally found a pillow with the perfect support. Read more

This is the umpteenth pillow I’ve tried. In other words, I’ve lost count. And finally, this is THE one. The firmness and softness can be tailored to my preferences simply by removing the filling if the pillow seems too firm -as the manufacturer notes; . I didn’t need to do that. Yes, these pillows aren’t cheap but the quality totally justifies the price (and I’m someone who normally shops for bargains). They’re durable. . And while this isn’t likely to apply to you, they were the ONLY pillows my spouse could stand after open heart surgery. He could actually sleep through the night, not an easy feat for a heart surgery patient. They made a world of difference. For this reason alone (but there are plenty of others), I highly recommend these pillows. Read more

I want to impart my first 14 days with this product upon you, if I can. Here's my profile for comparison: - I have a big, heavy head - I sleep on my side and sometimes my belly - I run hot, and can't stand sleep-goods that don't breathe This is the best pillow I've ever owned, so far, with one caveat. The firmness is just right for me. It's supportive without nagging. It doesn't try to force my neck to do anything it doesn't want to, but it also doesn't let my head sink right down to the mattress. This pillow supports you like a good friend - just enough without crossing any lines. It breathes, too. It breathes like a meditation instructor: thoroughly. I've had solid memory foam pillows before that caused and soaked enough sweat as to be unsanitary before long - not this. It stays temperate and comfortable in spite of my best efforts to the contrary. Now for the caveat. The smell. Right out of the package, it's not great. It smells stale, but a level beyond simply being stale, it smells like it's making things near it smell stale. It's almost like a chemically induced stale smell. It's like an amplified version of the distinct scent of warm, wet cardboard box filled with worn socks that has been allowed to dry just a bit. And it's strong. I've aired this thing out, covered it in two cases, sprayed it with fabric odor killer, and even now it persists somewhat, though greatly diminished. Why didn't I return it? This is what shredded memory foam smells like. I have a "bean bag" chair from Sumo that's filled with the same stuff and it smells exactly the same. By matter of volume, that chair hasn't completely aired out in the 6 months we've owned it, either. This is, I think, the nature of the beast. Give it time and cope with it, it will go away. I have to dock a star for that though. To conclude, this is an amazing pillow. It's not perfect, and anyone who is sensitive to smells should be very wary. Read more

This is a terrific pillow. My old memory foam pillow had given out, leading to muscle tension and headaches. I replaced it with this -- the difference is that this pillow is not a solid hunk of memory foam. I haven't had a neckache or related headache since. It fills the gap between my neck and the sleeping surface very nicely, supporting my neck and avoiding that muscle fatigue. Read more

Pillow is fine, though not revolutionary. Flattens rather quickly, but can be revived for a day or two by washing and drying it. Lack of pillow case makes washing and drying a chore. Read more

Updates First. As always. I have to update my review on two grounds. First, I washed my pillow and, though it is supposed to be washable, the memory fiber or shredded memory foam really hasn't bounced back the way my other shredded memory foam pillows bounced back after washing. To be clear, I am gentle on pillows, don't turn or shift much while sleeping, use an allergy pillow case and regular pillow case to protect the pillow and only washed it because the dust mite/allergy cover zipper had broken and the pillow was making me sneeze so I bought a new cover and washed the pillow which was a terrible mistake. Second, they've upped the price to $41. That is just insane, considering what you get. I'm sorry but this just isn't worth it for the short lifespan of the pillow. The original price of $30 was a bit steep, considering all the options available and the brands that offer two for one deals, but $41 is highway robbery. If you value products being sold by companies with a conscience, you shouldn't support this company by telling them that they can get away with charging so much for a product that doesn't even last a year. Original Review: I've owned this pillow for nearly a year and used it for a full six months before reaching these conclusions. First, allow me to say that this is an excellent pillow for comfort, under specific conditions. However, if those conditions are not met, it lacks in specific and important ways. This pillow uses a similar style of bamboo cover to many shredded memory foam and memory fiber (same thing, different name) pillows. The cover is 100% bamboo, like everyone else's, and is perforated, they say for cooling. In actuality, the perforation does not cool the pillow as compared to unperforated bamboo covered pillows, all of which stay relatively cool due simply to the weave and texture of a bamboo cover and the nature of air flow through shredded memory foam/ memory fiber. And so, the perforation is unimportant for cooling and this pillow is much like other pillows in sleeping temperature owing to similar materials and construction. That having been said, the perforation of this (and several similar pillows) does actually make fluffing this pillow (and the similar ones I've tried) much easier than fluffing the closed-weave bamboo covered pillows on the market. Of course, this is only important when you consider the following, namely, that this pillow is not resistant to dust mites and allergens, as it claims to be, not in the least. In order to be hypoallergenic or even to just resist, not stop fully, dust mite activity, a cover must be so tightly woven (I won't bore you with micron counts) that it actually makes fluffing a pillow very difficult, as the air inside the pillow is pressed out by the pressure of you sleeping on it but new air flows back in very slowly, over time. and is difficult to restore even with fluffing. This pillow is, to clarify, directly advertised and labeled as being, of all things, "hypoallergenic" and "dust mite resistant", when it is, in truth, neither. However, a pillow that is both of those things (and I've tried several) is impossible to fluff. Because this pillow is perforated and fails utterly in allergy control, it is also, owing to that perforation, highly fluffable (fluffs in mere moments). So, you can cover it in the allergy barrier of your choice and then follow the protocol of unzipping the allergy cover for a moment, fluffing and then zipping it back up, to great results. So, essentially, this pillow gets five stars for fluffing and zero stars for allergy claims. Next, there is the issue of fill. This pillow uses similar fill to several others that I have tried ranging in price from just over $15 to $30 and this one is by far the most expensive at nearly $40. Any pillow can be opened up on the end, to sew on a zipper, so as to make the fill level adjustable, which I've done with several other pillows and I can say, having done that, that this pillow is obscenely over priced. Yes, the fill is high quality. So is most of the memory fiber/ shredded memory foam I've found in pillows. Also yes, the slip style is better for certain types of sleepers. But, anyone can adjust the fill level of any memory fiber/ shredded memory foam pillow to whatever level they want. So, what is the overall justification of the two star review? It is simply not worth the price. They lose a star for false claims of being hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant, but they lose one more for using a cover that is identical to covers on cheaper pillows and still one more for using fill that is identical to cheaper pillows, essentially, selling the same product for far more money. You can get a high quality shredded memory foam or memory fiber pillow, call it what you will, with a perforated 100% bamboo cover from multiple vendors, cut on one end, unstitch, leaving thread ends attached for sealing off/ tying off so that the pillow stitching doesn't unravel, sew in a zipper that meets up with your sealed/ tied off thread ends, and then adjust the fill to your liking and achieve exactly the same result as you get with the slim pillow from Xtreme Comforts without paying the Xtreme price (I couldn't resist). This is, in short, a rich person's pillow. It costs more for the sake of costing more. It is not better and, ultimately, is not worth it given how much less you can pay for a nearly identical product. On the one hand, I love this pillow. On the other, I love the ones I've adjusted to essentially match it in every way, just as much only it didn't cost me as much as a Smog Check. The price is simply far more than it is worth. Good luck in making your choice and finding what you need. Read more

Terrific It is true that it is easy to adjust the thickness by removing some of the fill and putting it in the Dryer with a tennis ball is very effective for fluffing it up. I have tried a number of advertise pillows and this one works better than any of the others because it is truly adjustable. Read more
