Never bought one, but they were on the news where BBB just revoked
their approval, went from an A rating to an F over various issues.

I don't own one but you can/could buy them at Bed, Bath, and
Beyond. If you have one of their 20% off coupons even better.
If you don't like it you can return it and save yourself the
postage if you buy from the mypillow site.

My wife likes it. IMO, it's nowhere near as nice as my firm down pillow
(which was, admittedly, about 50% more expensive). If you are looking
for a soft pillow you won't like it either.

We have two and my wife and I like them. Not sure if they are worth the
price, but seems that any good pillow is close to the same.

I think the prices are somewhat misleading. If I remember they are $100
on the web and $ 50 in the stores but you get one "free" if bought
online.
Seems the same price to me. When they come in the mail they are
compressed and you have to run them in the dryer for a while. My wife
puts hers in the dryer about once a month to fluff it back up.

I've been skeptical and wanted to see one before buy a very expensive
pillow. At Walmart they had one in a sealed box but wife saw one at Bed
Bath and Beyond. felt it and did not like it. Amazon reviews are not
that great.

Yeah, they're fairly evenly split with either real high or real low ratings.

The company head was on a talk show a few years ago. He's a a
clean addict. I
guess he makes a point of hiring others.
One of the official complaints about the company had to do with
advertising. Buy one get one free was supposed to be a special deal.
They ran the promotion so long that it couldn't be called a special deal.

It sounds like BBB is ****ed about their pricing not the product or service. That sounds like a lot of BS from BBB

The owner was on Stuart Varney the other day. He is a Trump
supporter. Nexus in the downgrade?

I think the BBB is affter them for the advertisments. From what I heard
they say something about a Sleep Association or some such. That seems
to be something they started. The advertisements seem to indicate the
pillow will cure many things. Just the typical infomercial hype.

As I mentione we have 2. I sleep on one and can sleep on just about
anything. My wife is very choosey about a pillow. She sleeps on one,
but about once month she complains about it and sleeps on anoter type.
Puts the MY Pillow in the dryer for a while and is happy for another
month.

Well, that's a good enough reason not to buy the pillow right there!

I think that every time I see their overplayed commercials. A pillow is
a pillow. The $5 ones are Walmart suit me fine. They last a few years,
and when they get flat, tear, or begin getting too dirty, I buy a new
one, and the old ones get tossed or used on a pet's bed, if they are
still sort of usable. Pillows are nothing but a cloth bag filled with
shreaded foam. There is no pillow worth $100. When you pay $100 for a
"Mypillow", you're paying $5 for the pillow and $95 to cover the costs
of their TV commercials.

Could be, but I find that they're sales tactics are
questionable not to mention that they themselves started the
Sleep Association

I kind of figured that about the "Sleep Association" the first time I heard that in their ads.

I have two and we like them. Like all personal items it is determined by the
buyers likes/dislikes.

All the chatter about the NSF is baloney, the BBB doesn't like you if you
don't pay the vig. This topic was discussed about 6 months ago. DAGS.
