I use a down pillow and a down comforter from Germany. I wash them in the machine and dry them in the dryer and hang them outside to get some nice fresh air running through them. I also hang them outside in the icy cold weather to give them a good airing out - here in Minnesota it gets pretty darn cold, but the pillows and comforter keep you warm. Feels so good. Edie

For years I couldn't bring myself to buy an expensive pillow, but I finally relented and got a good goose down and I LOVE IT! I sleep in all sorts of positions- side, back, stomach, so one of those pillows just for one type of sleeper never was good. But I can scrunch this one up when in one my side, flatten it when I'm on my stomach and have a little bit of a roll under my head when I'm on my back. I'll never go back to cheap fiberfill pillows again - except to use in pillow shams!

It's down for me . I hate foam pillows , they get hot, don't get into just the right position well. When I travel I don't sleep well as hotels have foam. They are pricey , but worth every penny.

The shredded foam from way back was the best pillow I ever had. Bought the foam and stuffed my own pillow.
Now the cheap 5.00 pillows from walmart are the best. I use a small loosely filled poly fiber pillow to scruch under my head. I am mainly a side sleeper. I have trouble sleeping sometimes but, not because of my pillow.

I made one of these out of Hello Kitty satin. I don't like a "regular" pillow. http://www.sew4home.com/projects/pil...ng-neck-pillow

I keep changing mine off and on. memory foam, soft, hard, and a smaller walnut husk one (or what ever is in it) that I love and wish were larger. Good luck.

I have temperpeic that came with our mattress. It took a lilltle while to get use to them but they are nice.

If it's buckwheat hulls, you can buy those (online) in bulk, then make your own pillow whatever size you want. :)

I have to use a contour pillow, even though I sleep on my side. Regular use of any other type, ends up causing me neck strain and headaches. The contour pillows feel hard, at first . . . but then mold to one's neck and head. The main problem I have with them, is the smell! A new one has to air out for a few weeks, before I can use it.

I use one of those temperpedic pillows, but it's a generic one from Target. It's curved higher on the bottom. It's wonderful!! Cost about $20.
