 Best pillows in a LONG time August 3, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Now granted, I've only been using these for about a week, but I've been through no less than 5 pillows in the last year and a half. I've bought cheap pillows that end up getting flat after a few months and expensive pillows that were never comfortable for more than a day.
I was hesitate to order these online but figured for the price- why not?
So far they are holding up better than any other pillow I've bought, though time will only tell if I feel the same in 6 months.
My husband even decided to use one of the new pillows as a replacement for his otherwise fine pillow and now won't give it back!
My neck doesn't hurt, I'm not waking up 10 times during the night to flip the pillow over or fold it so it's a decent size. Just sleep.
Even if it's not this comfortable in 6 months or a year it's been worth it so far! I hope the gel filled fibers help the pillow retain its shape and comfort long after other pillows have faded away.
 Ugg, the smell! August 1, 2008

I bought these a few weeks ago and I too thought they had some type of gel in them. They may have some gel substance of some sort, but the smell is what I can't handle. The pillows smell like chemicals to me, not sure how else to describe them. The odor was really strong as soon as I took them out of the plastic and the smell is still there after a few weeks, not as strong but still very, very noticable especially when you sleep on them. I may try putting them outside on the screened porch to air out.
Good as Goose (nearly) July 30, 2008
As a devoted goose down pillow user, I can vouch for the comfort of these pillows. No, they're not quite as comfortable as down, but for about one tenth of the price, they come close. If you cannot afford down, this is definitely a good substitute.

These pillows are OK. They are fluffy but they do tend to flatten out & then bend in the middle probably because they are so big (king sized). Just OK & I'm glad I didn't spend a lot of money on them.
 For real gel/water pillows try Mediflow they are on amazon.com July 26, 2008

http://www.amazon.com/Mediflow-Intl-1006-Chiroflow-Pillow/dp/B000ELVUEU/ref=pd_bbs_sr_7?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1217030967&sr=8-7
If you are looking for a real "gel" pillow, the Mediflow is filled with water. You fill it with water once you receive it and can customize the amount you use.
I think it can hold 6-8 liters (2 gllons?).
It is very comfortable and reccomended by physio for people with sore necks.
My only issue is that the pillow is quite heavy once it is full and you have to empty the water several times a year.
They do include a funnel though.
