viewstar Pillows Queen Size Set of 2, Hotel Quality, Down Alternative Gusseted Bed Pillows for Side, Back, or Stomach Sleepers, WhiteOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

This set of Viewstar Down-Alternative, Gusseted Queen sized pillows is everything I've been looking for. First and foremost, they arrived in vacuum sealed packaging, so I know they're free of any dust or contaminants encountered on their way to my door. Upon breaking the seal and removing them from the plastic they fluffed up quickly. After shaking them a little, they fluffed up even more. Pressing into them with my open hand they felt soft to medium-firm. Not too firm, nor too soft. They felt fluffy, soft, and squishy but with a little resistance.After sleeping on one of these pillows I'm happy to say that they are extremely comfortable. It cradles your head nicely without flatting out under your neck, so yes, they definitely offer support in that area. It did not cause excessive heat and it retained its shape. I used a 100% cotton zip closure pillow protector over the pillows before putting on my pillow cases. It was tight fit to get the zipper done because of how lofty and fluffy the pillows are. (I think the zipped case will help them retain their shape in the future.) My head did not slide off the pillow, my neck had good support, and I slept like a baby the first night. I'm hoping that trend continues! Will update in the future.

These pillows perfectly balance firmness and softness, making them fluffy and comfortable! I admit that I was a bit skeptical when I first took them out of the vacuum-sealed packaging. However, after following the instructions to fluff them up and putting them in the dryer the next day as directed, all my doubts disappeared. They barely fit in the pillowcase, I love these pillows! They are just what I needed for a good night's sleep.Well worth the price I Paid for them. They fluff up as soon as you raise your head and return to their original shape.

I have had these pillows for five months now. They are still as puffy & lofty as the day I received them. (My partner & I do rotate between two pillows each. So each pillow is only used half of the time.)The other pillows we have are this brand, but with the dark gray gusset. There is more filling in the all white pillows. I actually think there is a little too much filling in the all white pillows. I am a side sleeper and I wake up with my head barely on the pillow.The pillows with the dark gray gusset are absolutely perfect. They have the perfect amount of filling in them! I'd give them 5 stars!The covering on all of the pillows is very soft. Due to the fluffiness of these pillows, I had to purchase new wider pillow cases. (I was unable to "stuff" them into my existing pillow cases.)

Pillows are rolled, and vacuum sealed inside of the received box.Size-I ordered standard, and the second picture shows you the difference in size. I was pleasantly surprised these are larger than a standard store purchased pillow.Firm-My husband is the one who wanted firm, and he said after two nights sleep they are in fact firm, although to the touch are very soft.Hight-They are double the height of a standard pillowLength-The fit a queen bed from side to side when both are put side by side.Washing was a important to me, and these can be washed!Directions/Instructions-Follow the instructions on the box. I did every step and they fluffed up to beautiful pillows!I will need pillows for myself and if the vendor has a soft version, I would be interested!

These pillows were really good. Why did you pick this product vs others?:I was able to sleep better. The pillows let me sleep better on my side and back.

Incredibly thick/firm for me personally. Just even side sleeping they were so thick it stretched my neck to an unrealistic position. And even though the material is “soft”, the pillows are very overfilled. They definitely “shrink” when you lay on them, but they are like 8 inches thick to begin with, and once they do compress—and only where you put all your body weight— it’s like a brick. But like a springy brick fighting with you to fluff back up all night if you dare to move a millimeter. Forget about using them in an envelope style pillow case unless you want an unfair advantage in an MMA style pillow fight. Be prepared for an assault with a deadly weapons charge though.If the center had a like a head shaped divot or if there were just even rationally filled I think I could *maybe* get behind them.If you like hotel style pillows, but wish they were firmer and thicker and nothing like hotel pillows—then these are probably for you.If you need a pillow you can sink into and switch positions and actually sleep on—like at a hotel—this is not the one.Giving 3 stars as the pillows themselves aren’t bad—just not what I thought I was buying. The conflicting reviews don’t help either.
