![DreamField Linen Rayon of Bamboo Body Pillow for Adults - [Adjustable] Shredded Memory Foam Long Cooling Pillows, Removable and Washable Hypoallergenic Cover with Zipper](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/319+oR25mcL._AC_.jpg)
Originally I was shopping for new non-zippered body pillow covers . When I saw the prices to be $15 or more, I wondered why I would spend that much money on our tired old flat body pillows that were probably bought at Target 20+ years ago. Then I saw these highly rated shredded foam bamboo pillows on Amazon and initially balked at the price of $70. Being mostly a side sleeper, I thought why skimp on comfort, so I decided to order both the Snuggle-Pedic Ultra-Luxury Bamboo Shredded Memory Foam Full Size Body Pillow with Kool-Flow and another top-rated USA manufactured pillow. Both offer long satisfaction-guaranteed trial periods,100% made in USA, and high-quality materials.
The pillow came folded in half and vacuum packed in plastic. As per instructions received by email and printed copy in the package, I carefully cut and removed the plastic wrap. The pillow began to expand almost fully on its own. I placed the pillow in the dryer to ensure full expansion. Yes, there was a distinct odor from the foam. I chose to put the pillow in the dryer on low heat with a dryer sheet for a while longer. The odor has lessened and is now barely noticeable a week later.
The non-zippered bamboo cover is soft, textured, and cool. The texture is almost waffle-like and can be felt when you run your hand over it even when using a pillowcase. The pillow, as received, is firmer than the competitor. There is no zipper to self-customize the firmness level. The pillow can be mailed to the company free of charge to be customized. This may be inconvenient for me due to my indecisiveness. Although I knew the firmness level could be changed, between the textured cover and firmness, I expected to like this pillow less than the competitor’s pillow.
I also purchased the quality Snuggle-Pedic Zipper Removable Body Pillow Cover Kool-Flow Luxurious Bamboo Material. The cover is the same fabric and size as the pillow cover and is still breathable and cool even with a pillowcase. I like to protect the pillow to help avoid or minimize the need to launder the pillow. Since the pillow cover is non-zippered and sewn shut this pillow most likely can be laundered without the filling escaping although drying thoroughly may take quite a while.
Customer service for this small business is exceptional. I received emails about product care both before and after receiving my pillow. They also emailed me a few days after receiving my pillow to offer me a complimentary pillow cover of my choice. They offered to cancel my order of the zippered cover but I chose to have both so I will receive Snuggle-Pedic Organic Cotton Body Pillow Case Kool-Flow Breathable Stretch Knit Fabric (Body) to try. This offer had no bearing on my decision. There is a 20-year warranty on the pillow which is nice but I doubt will never need.
The choice was difficult as both pillows are very comfortable. To my surprise, I found the firmness of the Snuggle-Pedic to actually work for me. I have less shoulder and hip discomfort since my free shoulder and leg are well supported when laying on my side. As far as the cover texture, I do not even notice it when using the pillow. I’m only six nights in to my 120-night trial, so I can still change my mind about returning it or sending it in to customize. I highly doubt I will be returning it. I never realized how bad our old body pillows were and how good a body pillow can be.
