I am surprised it took 30 posts for this to show up! I agree totally, specially if DD or larger.

I use a temperpedic and a sobakawa. The tempurpedic is the only memory foam pillow I've liked, and I've tried 5 or 6 others. I stack the two pillows, and alternate which is on top based on how I'm feeling.

down pillow wrapped/pinned in a bath towel then put into a soft pillowcase ... heavenly.

I prefer memory foam. Everything else I tired wasn't as comfortable, nor lasted more than 3 months, no matter what it costed.

They are my favorite non-sleeping pillows.

I love resting my head on 36DD's!

Gah. The pillow I ended up buying is too firm for me... Hopefully it will get better with burn-in...

Try modding it (take out some stuffing).

Is there a zipper? If not ask someone with some sewing experience to help you.

I'll try that... But if it doesn't make a difference....

How about this? http://www.amazon.com/Royal-Velvet-S...2430432&sr=8-1

It's fairly cheap, and its 75% down. Looks comfy.

I used to love those striped cotton pillows with the feathers. Stay away from polyfill. Just doesn't get squishy enough.

However, they are expensive.

I concur. I used to sell pillows and never tried the latex ones because they smelled funny when you first opened one. A girl I was seeing (who had sold beds for nearly a decade) convinced me to try on and I fell in love...with the pillow. I've used a couple down ones, memory foam, and latex foam and by far I prefer the latex.

It was like the down but kept is shape, but not unnaturally so like the memory foam and there was no wait for it to contour to my head. It has been a couple of years and it has retained its shape and feels the same as when I bought it.

The best way to try pillows is to go to a bedding store and check them out. Ideally you could bring one home but I doubt they will let you.

Agreed, I like my pillows flat, worn out and cold. I can't sleep on those big fluffy untextured pillows.

Haha, my thoughts exactly.

Memory foam for me.

I tried all the cheapo foam ones and ended up with a tempur one costing £60

.

But its well worth the money, a good nights sleep is priceless IMO.
