Pacific Coast Double Down Around Pillow - Standard

I had read other reviews both here and elsewhere that have stated that this is the best pillow ever. I am now convinced that the statement was very true! The pillow is comfortable and cradles my neck very well. I have some neck issues and so I have to say comfort is very important. I wake feeling refreshed. The pillow needs to be fluffed every day and they do include instructions for throwing it in the dryer to poof it back out. I did not do that since the pillow was not really compressed that much during shipping. I also have allergies and I have no trouble with this. Spend the money and go for it, I think you will say it is the best pillow ever!

The pillow received is NOT a medium support double down around with 1.5 " gusset like description claims. Received a year's old original double down around which is equivalent to the current SOFT (not medium) double down around. Which can be purchased, by the way, directly from manufacturer for $10 less than this. So, you pay for medium support fill, but actually get an old model with soft support (less fill). Very false advertising.The pillow is good, but NOT what ordered. If you need the medium support and gusset, don't order this. Because you won't get it.

Had the same national brand name down pillows for 10+ years. Loved them but they reached the end of their life. Wasted about $150 on two other pillow sets before trying the Pacific Coast pillows. It's like having my old pillows back! Never cheap out and try to replace quality with junk. One of the other pillows I tried had feathers poking out from the pillow. Not only was it uncomfortable but I ended up with feathers all over the bedding and I keep finding them all along the path from the bedroom to the laundry and ultimately out to the trash cans. These pillows are the perfect "fluffy" for a side/stomach sleeper and there feathers are both soft and can be shaped to fit my sleep position. And I like that they are a standard size. No huge queen or king size pillows. How big do they think my head is?

This is a nice hotel pillow, but I was not impressed with it. It was somewhat comfortable and somewhat supportive. I guess it would be find for a couple of nights in a hotel, or for a guest bedroom if your guests are only staying for a night or two. I would not want it to be my everyday pillow. It's decent, just not good enough.

I must say, with all of the glowing reviews, I was expecting an amazing pillow. It's not bad at all, no terrible smells, no skimping on feather count. It's just that it goes flat very easily, almost like paper sometimes. I would have enjoyed something that was more plush. Also, it has a crinkle effect, which is not necessarily conducive for a maximally cozy sleeping experience (though does not detract from it either). I would not be so picky about my reviews if I wasn't paying around $50 dollars for one pillow, but for the price, I expect a pillow of higher caliber. It plumps up easily after it has flattened, and is soft, so I am thankful, and my sleep is sound, so there's that to be grateful for as well.

Best pillow for me. I am a side sleeper. I encountered this pillow at a hotel and immediately dismissed it because it was obviously too high. I cannot understand why people would want to sleep with their head at a 45 degree angle as most hotel pillows would cause you to do. However, I was surprised when I pushed down on this pillow and saw it easily squished down flatter. So I tried it and it was so comfortable when on my back and perfect when I switched to my side. Granted, pillows seem to be subject to very individual taste; but this is a great pillow for me. You should also buy the suggest dust and mite pillow protector. Duck feathers and down are the cat’s pajamas in a pillow!

I have been searching for a replacement down pillow and this one is fabulous! You get what you pay for, this was $58, worth every penny. It came in a bag in a box, had a very slight odor but once a pillow case was on it, the smell faded quickly and never bothered me. I have had it for about a month now, recommend to anyone who is used to down pillows and wants a quality product. No feathers poking out, fluffs nicely yet compressing just right when you lay your head on it.

The box contained the two pillows, both inside clear plastic zipper covers. When removing the pillows from their zipper covers, I noted at first that the cotton cases appeared to be lightly soiled and there were deep wrinkles in them that would not smooth out. But the real shock came when seeing black hairs that were pressed onto the white cotton cases, on both pillows. These pillows obviously had been slept on by someone and then returned. In re-reading several reviews of this product, I found a number of them that openly stated that the pillows were being returned.This product was not sold directly by Amazon, rather it was sold by another seller and fulfilled by Amazon.I contacted Amazon immediately, and with an instant call-back from Amazon customer service (NOTE, Amazon has the very best customer service in the business, I have purchased many things from Amazon over the years) with my explanation of what I received, I was immediately sent via email a prepaid return label for sending these pillows back. Amazon will not replace them, they will when the pillows are received at their return facility, refund me my entire expenditure.A very bad experience has been corrected quickly by Amazon. However, I will be very careful not to purchase any future product sold by this particular seller.

You might think that you can't tell with a pillow that you purchase on line, but trust me. You really can't go wrong with a pillow from Pacific Coast. This one replaces one I had for several years; and is about 1/3 of the cost compared to buying it in a national named department store.

Excellent quality.
