| I sleep either on my side or my stomach. When I sleep on my stomach, I hug my pillow, so I'd like one that will compress when I hug it, but not be completely flat. On the other hand, I can't stand really "fat" pillows that don't compress much. I am looking at the Flobeds medium latex pillows. I have no experience with latex pillows, so I don't know what to expect. I did get a memory foam pillow one time and I couldn't stand it. Too heavy and it didn't compress enough. Those of you that use latex pillows, can you give me some idea of what it is like? Thank you! |
| Ive used a Latex pillow from Overstock for the last 4 years and I love it. I was at JC Penny on Friday and they had a buy one get one for 88 cents pillow sale and I picked up 2 of the King size latex pillows they had (same as linked above) for $80.87 which was a pretty good deal. They feel very similar to the one queen I got from overstock but their cover seems nicer. |
| The cover on my JCP pillow is a 75% cotton/25% poly blend which has like a plush terrycloth-ish feel. It's nice. |
| The cover is worth spending a little more money for so if the cover is nicer and the pillows are very similar, I would go for the JCPenney pillow. I found that even with the pillow case over the cover that came with the overstock pillow, I could feel that the cover was not soft enough. I love my 400 count Pima Covers that are so soft and allow me the total feel of the latex inside and still feel that way with a pillow case over them. I am sure I would have been happy enough with the JCPenney cover that I would not have had to go out to buy a new zippered cover for the latex pillow I got from Overstock. |
