SertaDown Illusion Soft Hypoallergenic Medium/Firm Bed Pillows for Side, Stomach or Back Sleepers (2 Pack), King, WhiteOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

I am a down pillow user and have slept on down pillows since I was a kid. In the past few years I've noticed that I've been much too hot sleeping on my pillows, probably due to menopause. And also the odor of the feathers started really bothering me. So I went on a search for anything that wasn't down but would give me the same sleeping experience. I tried so many down alternative pillows and most of them just felt like regular foam pillows and were thick and hot. I even tried a buckwheat pillow which felt like a rock. I couldn't even sleep on it for 30 minutes. I use it now on the bed as a back rest and it works great for that. So the search continued and then I found the Serta pillows. The price was so good I thought I would give them a try.Just out of the box I knew the pillows weren't going to be right for me. They felt and looked very big and puffy. My old down pillow was really flat and I could moosh it up to fit just how I like. So I decided to do minor surgery on one of the pillows. Serta, take note: add zippers to these pillows! I cut open an end seam just enough to get my hand through and began pulling out handfuls of the soft fiber fill. I pulled out nearly half the amount in the pillow. But it still wasn't right for me. I then took a zippered pillowcase I had and stuffed it with the filling I removed from the Serta pillow. I did a bit of mooshing and it felt and looked like my old down pillow. I tried it that first night and it did take awhile to get use to as fiber fill is different from down. But I slept great and have been using my franken-pillow for several weeks and have been sleeping really good. So after a bit of work and pillow surgery I finally have something comfortable I can sleep on that doesn't smell like a bird and is nice and cool. I say, give these a try. You can always do what I did and make it work for you.

These didn’t come vacuum sealed (I think -my boyfriend opened the package) and they were pretty thin and when Id lay my head on it, my head would touch the bed (I.e it was completely flat). So I initially thought these are crap, I’m returning them ASAP. But he asked if we could give them a chance so I agreed. And I was surprised to find the next day that they were so fluffy/puffy but also so soft?!? So I came to the Amazon page and realized it says something along the lines of to allowing 24hr for them to puff up. So I really fluffed them and beat them really good up to get air inside of them. And they became super nice and fluffy with a sturdy upright shape when the bed is made. With “firm” pillows, I typically picture a puffy and thick pillow that doesn’t sink much when you lay my head on it. That makes my neck hurt. And the word “soft” when it comes to pillows, I associate that with a pillow that you head sinks so much that it’s like laying on nothing. That’s why I bought this “medium-firm” because I didn’t want to lay my head on a rock but I also didn’t want a weak a** pillow. By saying this pillow is soft and puffy I mean it has a lot of volume and it’s thick but it is not obnoxiously resistant to mending to the shape of your head. My head doesn’t sink into nothingness, instead this pillow holds my head up just the right amount. I think what allows me to say that it holds MY head up perfectly is that it is adjustable in that you can super easily mess with it/fluff/puff it around and make it hold your head up higher or lower (I.e make it firmer or flatter). Now it’s become the first pillow I reach for every night (most comfortable) and the one I put in the front when I made the bed (it’s pretty - holds up it’s shape but it also looks cozy, soft and inviting).For reference, I mostly sleep on my stomach with one shoulder under the pillow. Also great when laying on my back bc it has so much volume (thick) but very soft so it kind of puffs up on the sides of your head and neck, thereby holding you in that position and providing support.Comfort during sleep is so important, and it’s hard to choose a pillow online, so I hope you found this helpful

Love this pillow! It's so soft and silky when you open the box. First night I slept with it, I slept all night no issues. Very comfortable. You can scrunch it, flip it over for the cool spot and you go right back to sleep. Comes in a 2 pk. And they are both mine!!

I ordered a 2 pack set of king size pillows. I shared the link with my daughter-in-law and she ordered the same. Her set was perfect (box labeled king and 2 beautiful comfy king size pillows inside). My set was not (box labeled king but QUEEN size inside). See attached photos for identical labels but big size difference. Even though mispacking of box occurred at manufacturer (Serta), Amazon took care of me and issued a full refund. Despite the mix-up, these pillows are amazing in any size - nice cooling effect, moldable to any desired shaped (can be flattened or fluffed up), hypoallergenic and great value!

I needed a new pillow. I have been disappointed in the past by pillows online. I tried this Serta because one of my old pillows was a Serta, so I said "why not"? I'mglad I did. I was pleasantlly surprised. I did need to put it in the dryer for 10 minutes on air fluff. It is very comfortable and not hot. I reall like this pillow, glad it came in a 2 pack. I sleep back and sides all night, it didn't matter.

I've bought this particular pillow multiple times over the last few years.It's fairly comfortable, but they've changed the outer fabric of the pillow.Now it's really noisy when you move your head around on the pillow.It crinkles like a potato chip bag. It's just really loud. Not something you want to hear when you're rolling over in your sleep.

Silky fluffy filling shifts around a bit and tend to slide out from under your head (not the whole pillow, the filling shifts within the pillow)just a bit, like real down i suppose, but you don’t have to reshape the pillow, it shifts right back when you lift your head. After two months it’s still very fluffy. Hasn’t flattened at all. I think it’s good pillow for the price. Fills out a standard pillow case nicely, very plump. Fluffy but also has weight. I like them. Holding up very well so far.
