I LOVE this pillow. I previously had a buckwheat hull only pillow, which totally doesn't compare to this one! Shipping was SUPER fast (from Comfort Essentials), rec'd it 6 days earlier than estimated. My ONLY complaint is the pillow is SO SMALL. Get out your ruler on this one, because it would fit a 5 yr. old better than an adult. Wish they made this in a larger version, I'd gladly pay the price!

I bought this pillow when I began having a lot of neck pain that started in the morning and progressed to daily headaches. I could tell that neck stiffness and pain were the the cause of the pain. After years of using down pillows, I decided to make some changes. I considered the specially designed cervical pillows that have an indentation in the middle and is built up on the sides. Those pillows required specific measurements and recommended that the pillow be used differently depending on how one slept (for example - a side sleeper should keep their head on the periphery of the pillow and back sleepers keep their head in the middle). All of that seemed very high maintenance, and I knew I changed positions frequently throughout the night.

So, I decided on a pillow that could offer firm support to maintain a neutral neck alignment but would be able to accommodate my various sleep positions throughout the night. So, I settled on the Bucky. Because of the Buckwheat, it is able to be shaped into the desired shape needed to support your head within seconds. For example, when I first go to sleep, I start on my side. So, I keep most of the pillow uniform, except a add a little extra support above the shoulder to support my neck (like a cervical roll). If I change during the night and sleep on my back, the pillow easily conforms by creating an indentation for my head but still adding support for my neck's natural lordosis.

To sum up everything I tried to say above, I love how flexible this pillow is considering how supportive it is.

FYI: The buckwheat pillow is not comfortable on the face. However, for those with neck pain, your goal should be a neutral cervical spine so sleeping on your stomach is discouraged anyway. I appreciate that this pillow serves as a sort of reminder. As far as temperature, I have not noticed any difference in temperature from any other pillow and I have used down, memory foam, and synthetic fiber filling pillows before.

I have had this pillow for almost five years and am just now beginning to notice it needs a refill. It is definitely worth the money!
