A few months ago I purchased a new Sealy posturepedic mattress and two 'Sleep Options' cool gel pillows, one for back sleeper and one side. (I start out on my back and end up on my side) Best. Pillows. Ever. I don't ache, I don't need that small pillow between my knees, and I sleep so soundly. I'm sure the new mattress adds to it, but I highly recommend the pillows.

fwiw - I had previously purchased a Bobs mattress and box spring and will never do it again. After two years it had sagged and mornings I felt like I had been in a fight. When I told the salesman about it he said many people have said the same thing, so if you're in the market for a new mattress, buy a reputable one.

In MHO the MY Pillow is a piece of junk. I bought one, and ended up throwing it away. Think of the $ I could have spent on fabric

I bought one of the 'my pillows' a few years ago after watching the tv commercials. I liked it so much that I ordered a second one (I often like to pile two together). I love mine. They wash well and are the best I've ever had.

Oh Dear!! I know I need a new pillow and I don't mind paying a good price if I was sure it was a good pillow. I had neck surgery (C 1-2) last year and nothing seems right since. The surgeon just said to get a "good" pillow. I find feather pillows way too soft, my head just sinks. The husk pillows seem too hard, makes my ear hurt. I'm tired of spending money I don't have, still paying that hospital bill!!

I also have had 10 spinal surgeries. I have a 4" memory foam mattress cover also. I love the pillow. it gets a bit hard in the cold weather, but softens up in about a minute or two. I couldn't sleep without it. but give it a day or two t get used to it. It gives great neck support too.
I have had several back and neck injuries too, and found these pillows to be a miracle to sleep on.

I,too , use buckwheat pillows.But after about 15 years became very flat. I ordered some buckwheat hulls online. Restuffed my pillow and had enough to make 2 grandsons a pillow each. I think I ordered 10 pounds of it. I don't remember what company I ordered them from. you can google "buckwheat hulls for crafting " and come up with a lot of companies. Hope this helps. I'm afraid if I gave up my pillow ,the headaches would return.

Sandy, I am so glad for you. Before we got our pillows I had a terrible time sleeping.
