I received my pillow 4 days ago, and have just ordered two more. I have never been able to sleep on any kind of foam pillows, and am very picky about my feather pillows. This pillow arrived ready to serve me well!!!

It is the most comfortable pillow that I have ever had. I was a bit worried about which density to buy. I do not like a full or firm pillow, but I also need "body" to my pillow. I ordered the soft one, and it is perfect. I wish that I could describe it better, in order to allay any worries that you may have.

The pillow was not flattened during shipping, nor did it need a long fluffing time. I have seen complaints of bad odors in reviews of some down/feather pillows. This pillow is completely odor free.

Go ahead and order. I think you will be very happy. If not, Amazon does have one of the easiest online returns.

I am SO particular about pillows. I have had a hard time finding the perfect pillow for a bargain price. I was almost about ready to buy a 200 dollar pillow to get an amazing pillow. Than I stumbled across this beauty. It exceeded my expectations. I mean I read the reviews and they were all good, but still I am always skeptical. The packaging was a little destroyed (I'm guessing because it's soft and it's hard not to damage a cardboard box with no support). The pillow was in clean perfect condition. So I opened this fluff of awesomness and I FELL in love instantly. I am thinking about trying the medium density next ( I am partial to soft/medium density). I hope this review helps. I promise this is coming from a person who is SO picky about pillows.

Hi Amazonians---I usually don't bother with reviews but we LOVE these pillows. Not too firm and they adjust to the shape of your noggin. These pillows are better than most found in luxury resorts and we travel often...only now we bring these pillows.
1/3 of your life is spent sleeping so the investment in a quality pillow (mattress, comforter, spouse... etc.) is a no brainer. Come off the money, buy these pillows and get a great night's sleep. They're cheaper than a tank of gas and will last a lot longer.

If you're value minded and appreciate quality, this is the pillow for you. If you're cheap, say hey to my brother Mike at the next tightwad convention.

This is the best **soft density** down pillow I could find for the price. It was a gift for my mother and she loved it. Because this review is supposed to be about the product itself, I did not deduct stars for the shipping. It shipped via 2-day DHL and she did not receive it for a week after the online tracking est. arrival date. DHL is horrible, I wish Amazon would not use them for their Free Shipping over $25 offer-or at all!

These are very nice pillows. The last down pillows I bought cost about 4 times as much and I truly think these are nicer. They are very overstuffed. I went from sleeping on two down pillows to just one of these and I've had them about a month and they are just as nice as when I took them out of the box.

A review I read here before purchasing this pillow called it "very overstuffed". When it arrived, my friend and I agreed that it seemed if anything 'understuffed'. I have to fold it in half to create enough thickness to sleep comfortably. It fluffs up to look "full", but when I press down there isn't much pushing back. Maybe it is typical of down pillows, I don't know. It also says "MINIMUM 75% WHITE GOOSE DOWN" on the tag, but I have no idea what the other 25% is, I hope it is not synthetic. I wouldn't say that the product itself is disappointing, it certainly works as a pillow, but I think some of the other reviews made it sound better than it is. Had I shopped at a department store, I might have selected something thicker.

Because of a disabilty I must sleep on my back. I have been searching for the perfect pillow and this is it! Just firm enough and very supporting without being "hard." I reccomend the firm version to anyone who sleeps on their back.

The pillow is perfect! It replaces a worn out soft goose down pillow I've been using for 20 years. I've tried other goose down pillows from other sources but they were always too thick and/or too hard. Thank you Amazon!

These pillows definitely reinforce the old saying, you don't get what you don't pay for. I buy stuff on Amazon because I expect a good buy and usually get one. Not these pillows. They are hardly worth the price, very thin. In fact, I put both of them in the same pillow cover to give them a little body. I would never have bought pillows this down-challenged had I know how pitiful they were. But my serious complaint was the packing they came in. THESE ARE VERY THIN PILLOWS. I DOUBT THEY WEIGHED 8 OUNCES A PIECE. and each one was packaged in a plastic bag and sent in an enormous cardboard box...2 BOXES!!!! ridiculous. They both could easily have been sent in one of those sort of silvery, strong plastic bags. It was absolutely wasteful.

If you like it when your head sinks easily into the pillow, then this is your pillow. Personally, I expected a lot more support. After trying for half an hour to get comfortable, I got tired (no pun intended) of re-fluffing the pillow repeatedly and switched back to my old pillows.

Pillows largely come down to personal preference, so I'm not rating this pillow based on the way the pillow fits your head (and how I don't like that). Rather, I'm rating this pillow 2 stars because "medium density" would not have been my first guess.

The pillow seems to work by making sure all the goose down gets pushed to either side of your head, leaving nothing but the pillow case separating you from the mattress. I paid $80 for nothing, since I could have easily thrown my pillows to the floor and gone without to get the same experience. Or maybe I could have put a phone book on either side of my head for the illusion.

I think the problem with this pillow comes down to not enough stuffing. I could probably try to reduce the size of the pillow, thus increasing the down density, and get some use out of it. But for such an expensive pillow, I shouldn't have to.

Other than that, it seems to be a quality product. Just be aware of what you're getting yourself into.
