I just want a nice pillow. Any advice?

[ArseInTheCoOpWindow]

I’m so sick of the fuckers. They’re all shite.

Fancy posh quilted one was like sleeping on a bag of rocks after 5 months. Super posh memory foam one was like sleeping on a slab of bread.

Dd has has informed me she hates her goose feather ones (as do l) so I’m sort of stuck in a shit pillowgate situation.

Please recommend me a nice comfy pillow that doesn’t lose its shape and cause the pillowcase to twist round it. Is this rocket science?😭

Searching for the perfect place to rest your head? Our guide to the best pillows is up to date with a wide range of options tried and tested pillows. We hope it’s helpful!

Someone recommended a Dunlopillow on here about 7 years ago, and I got one, and it's been fantastic. Best pillow I've ever had.

I love the extra support ones from Asda!! They are really supportive, keep their shape and at £12 a pair, you don't have to bother washing them!!

We have just bought some alongside a Premier Inn duvet. Would definitely not swap for anything else.

Did any of you get the soft premier inn ones ? They are hovering around my basket at the moment , but I can’t justify another duff front sleeper pillow.

Dunlopillo latex, they last for years, it’s all I’ll buy for myself after trying different types.

I put a thread about crap pillows on in February.

I was advised to get the Premier Inn ones.

I bought just 2 at first to be sure. Now we have 8. I love them. However they are high so you need quite a low bottom pillow. But they fluff up really well.

If like me in the 70s and 80s you will of had one made up of 'scraps' of foam , the type that is/was used in sofa cushions.
I made myself one about 10 years ago and had it for ages ( until my dog was very sick on it ).
You can still buy the foam in places like dunelm and good cloth shops / haberdashers.

Cut the foam up into very random shapes about 1 inch square.
This takes a while but is worth it.
After about 2 weeks you may need to add a bit more foam.

To replace my manky pillow quickly I took a load of polystyrene beads out of a rarely used bean bag and put them in a old pillow case , the squeeking takes some getting use to but that was also very comfy , it was very supportive, I had it for years .

I like the Dunelm firm one that has a sort of seam around it.
Memory foam pillows are just awful imo and like solid slabs of meh!

This one....although if you've been to Dunelm you've probably squished it already!

Just realised this is an old thread....I'll get my coat!

We have sort of box shaped feather/down mix ones from TKMaxx. V comfy.
