I tried the my pillow in the store (They have a bed you can lay on) but I didn’t think I was going to like it. I ended up buying the Tempur-pedic cloud pillow and love it. It is expensive but it lasts and holds its shape much longer than a traditional pillow.


The advantage of the my pillow is that you can adjust it because the fill consists of numerous pieces. Other pillows like the temperpedic(which I have too) cannot be adjusted as it's one big piece of foam.

Their advertising campaign may be expensive, but it is also repugnant.

I am thinking about buying a new set of pillows. Our current ones are well over 20 yrs old and are the Swedish foam variety. They are still usable, but showing signs of sagging in the middle. If you believe the advertising hype, My Pillow should be the greatest pillow since the invention of the pillow.
I would like opinions from real owners of My Pillow on their satisfaction of this brand.
The TV advertising campaign must be quite expensive.


'My Pillow' has been sued for false and misleading advertising and misleading prices. Best go to a local store and test several types of pillows.

I'm curious, what is your source for this information?

I think Bilboboy just googled and took a look at the history of false advertising, lawsuits, and generally odious behavior. It's there for you to see, too

I have slept on 'My Pillow' since I first saw them advertised about 6-7 years ago I think, when they were $99.99 each. Can't say enough about them. The first one I got was softer than I prefer, so they exchanged it without a problem for a more firm one. Have been completely happy with it. You can toss it into the washer/dryer and it comes out like new again. I had neck shoulder problems with so many earlier pillows but much better now since I began using the My Pillow. Later my wife ordered them when they reduced the price to "two for", and the order came with the small 'travel' pillow too. I use that to prop my head higher at night while watching TV in bed.
Good product.

We have several. The firm is ok. The regulars is better. Had a problem with one that the seam opened.
They make you jump through hoops in order to replace it. You don't have to send it back. They did replace it and sent 2 pillowcases along with the new pillow. Turned out ok. I was able to fix the open seam, and have a spare.

I did Google it, and found nothing which is why I asked the question.

I agree totally with your assessment. I recently obtained 2 of them and have no complaints about them at all and I only paid $33 apiece for them which is very reasonable because I spent a lot more than that on other major brands in the past.

Yep, adding the word lawsuit to the search brings up the information. This may be the reason the prices have gone down considerably. In any case the settlement seems to be very fair. Many corporations settle without any admission of guilt because of the pecuniary advantages. The best advise someone here gave is that if it works for you then it's fine.

I have several for the beds in our house. I think these pillows are super. I even gave up my feather pillow for this. Tempurpedic are too hard especially in winter with a cool room. Be sure to buy the right size for your size.

My wife and I have used My Pillow for several years and could not be more pleased. She has a medium and I have a firm. By virtue of the type of fill material, their contour shape is customizable. We have not encountered problems with fill shifting. We also have the smaller travel size. Given that you have an option to try and return if they don't suit you, what do you have to lose?
