Natural Latex Shredded Foam Pillow - Queen Size - Set of 2

I only use shredded latex pillows. I have paid more for lesser quality. Comes way over stuffed and with extra filler. I purchased two king size and with the amount of filler I had to take out, I could make another pillow. Very good quality latex, no smell and very heavy and rubbery. Some shredded latex is too soft and light with little spring back, but not these.

This is a very high quality pillow/case. But it performs like the standard poly filled store bought pillows. It does not perform like a solid latex pillow in the least.I have been using solid latex pillows for 30 years. They all bounce back to 100% shape within a split second or you lifting your head off the pillow. They are either soft, medium or firm and thick, medium or thin. I had hoped that I could use this pillow to adjust the firmness and thickness while retaining most of the "bounce back". The trouble is that there is no latex "bounce back".So, if you are not concerned with how a traditional latex pillow performs (bounce back), then this may be a great pillow for you.Edit: This is a shredded latex pillow and I didn't expect it to perform exactly like a solid latex pillow. I did think that it would perform some what similarly. I thought it would bounce back at least a little because its latex (may half as much), but mine didn't bounce back at all. It is a very nice pillow and the adjustability is great, but it isn't for me. I've learned that I need to stick with solid latex.

Memory foam stinks. It literally smells. It off-gasses nasty chemicals. It decomposes after a while and clumps together. It gets gooey and hard. THIS pillow is latex, which has none of those problems. Some years ago, we purchased a latex mattress from the same company, Sleep on Latex. We have been sleeping comfortably ever since. I was put off initially by the price of latex. It was worth it for the mattress, and it is worth it for this pillow. I used to have a conventional foam pillow that was an ergonomic foam contour pillow, but with high sides. The bolster beneath my neck was low and just right. Eventually, the foam became unsupportive with age. Shopping for a replacement, I could only find memory foam pillows. I dislike memory foam in bedding. I dislike memory foam in shoe insoles. I dislike memory foam in chairs. I don't understand why memory foam took over. It is like the AI of cushioning technology. Most people don't want the resulting products, yet, here we are. So for a while, I used a shredded memory foam pillow because it was cheap and I could remove some of the foam to make it less lofty. Bed pillows, healthy bed pillows, shouldn't be 6-8" thick. So I removed foam until I had a sort of beanbag of a pillow about 3" thick. Just enough to fill the natural curvature in my neck. But, I had to let the memory foam off-gas in the garage for a month. After a few years use, my neck began to hurt because the foam began to harden and clump together, because it is memory foam.So I bought this WONDERFUL SHREDDED LATEX PILLOW. It had an ever so slight organic odor when I first opened the plastic bag it came in. A few hours later, I detected no smell. I am very sensitive to odors, so that is really significant. It was an overstuffed pillow, and came with a cloth cylindrical bag with more shredded foam in it. The pillow has a double cloth case, both have zippers allowing adjustment of the material. I emptied a bit less than half of the filling into a paper grocery bag. I used that extra foam to fill another zippered pillow case I had from emptying the memory foam pillow and discarding the yucky memory foam, then laundering the case. So I now have two latex pillows to use. The Sleep On Latex pillow was still a bit thick for my neck. So I tried the leftover latex pillow I made from the extra foam. My neck hasn't felt this good after sleeping, for probably a year. Most pillows are too thick to be ergonomic for a back sleeper. Get this pillow and you can adjust the thickness, and the latex foam will last many years.

I ordered this and the Coop pillow but the Coop came a week before this one. Two different kinds of foam and I appreciate the tiny symmetrical foam pieces of the Coop and the memory foam didn't bug me at all as I feared it would be too hot. The shredded latex has foam pieces of many irregular sizes and is somewhat lumpy to sleep on. I think a thick microfiber pillow case might help a little. This is twice as heavy as the Coop and would hurt someone in a pillow fight! Recommended as I think this will work fine but just needs a little attention to the size of the pieces to make it similar to the Coop.

I have been using latex mattresses, toppers and pillows for over ten years. My present twin and queen medium mattresses, as well as a soft topper, are dunlop, from Sleep on Latex. My pillows are talalay from another company (I like my talalay pillows firm and the ones from Sleep on Latex are considered soft). I am obviously a fan!I was surprised at how comfortable this pillow is. It is very very firm. I bought it for my daybed (the twin mattress), to support my back while sitting and as a pillow for sleeping (I often use the living room daybed for napping). I like the idea of being able to add and remove foam as needed. I already have added additional foam for more firmness.I thought to take chance on the shredded pillow because Sleep on Latex is beyond wonderful with free returns. I'm glad I did. It is very heavy and firm, and not for everyone but as another reviewer wrote, if you like a firm, heavy adjustable pillow, you could not do better than Sleep on Latex shredded dunlop pillow!

Great price for 2 standard shredded latex pillows! The outer organic cotton pillow cover is good quality as well.

I wish I knew where my boyfriend of 5 years ago had purchased the shredded latex pillows that I currently have. Just based on the quality of those pillows, these paled by comparison. The latex shred was way too coarse. Having said that, the quality of the casings and the overall presentation was very nice.
