The pillow covers arrived with my new mattress cover, and they were easy to put on. The zippers are strong, and work very well, and there's no crackly sounds or "plastic" feel to the pillows. I have also noticed that my goose down pillows seem to be "cooler" with these pillow covers installed. They are more like a microfine fabric than a plastic product, and I did notice that you sometimes get static electricity when you put on your pillowcases over them, and that the pillow cases don't slide on as easily as they do over plain pillows, so I have had to slide my arm in and position the corners with some of my pillow cases--that may be because of the type of fabric the cases are made of.
The one thing I have found odd (though reassuring) is that these covers are so well made they trap air inside them--so our ordinary pillows became PLUMP pillows. As my other half likes a rather flat pillow, he finds this annoying. By pressing hard on the pillow and squeezing the air out, you can get it flat enough to get comfortable--but on a few occasions I have apparently "slept wrong" and ended up with a crick in my neck in the morning.
Overall, I am very pleased with how well constructed and durable these pillow covers have proven to be so far. If it weren't for their tendency to trap excess air in them and create over plump pillows, I would give them 5 stars. That being said, these will definitely stop any mites or bedbugs from finding their way into your new pillows LOL. They also washed very well, with no shrinkage, and I'm confident they'll last longer than my pillows will. They are definitely much better than the plastic pillow covers they replaced--no scratchy feelings, no crackly sounds, and nice and cool when in use.

My Neighbor Totoro is the inspiration for my newborn son's nursery. I am a big Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli fan and am hoping my son will be an even bigger fan.If this were licensed by Studio Ghibli it would get 5 stars. Of course if it were licensed, it would be 4X the price. Very nicely sewn on what feels like a high quality cotton linen fabric. Great job with graphics. I couldn't find anything like this that was licensed, so I got it. If anything changes after the first washing I will update. I got the other one by this seller and it is exactly the same quality. Very well done with graphics on both sides. Don't forget to buy an 18x18 pillow insert. I got mine at IKEA for $2.99.
