| OK, I toss and turn and totally stress out when trying to sleep so put alot of pressure on my pillow and neck, lately it's like one a week now where I'm getting painful knots inbetween my shoulders and neck either on one side or the other. Any suggestions on what's the best type of pillow to stop me from hurting myself? |

I really don't like really long pillows, I like them short; so I bet cutting it in half would leave me and my wife with plenty of pillow and come out to about $22.50 each. We could carve the cut segment with a carving knife to make it slope downwards towards the center like the other end. |

I have a pillow related question. I did ask it in another thread but maybe it will get more replies here: What is the best pillow for someone suffering from allergies? I think my mem. foam pillow may be giving me watery eyes. I would like to try the latex one at JCP but I wonder if that might also give me allergy issues such as watery eyes or etc. I do sleep on latex, but it's under a sheet and currently also under a wool comforter. I think it would be okay but am wondering if maybe a regular Dacron or whatever they use nowadays for pillow stuffing would be better? Any thoughts on this? |
| thank you for all of the replies. I'd pretty much never heard of latex bed stuff before coming here, only the memory form. We don't have JC Penny's in Canada, I wonder if the website would mail to non USA locations. But, I'd honestly like to see what one is like in person first. Is latex for mattresses and pillows a newer thing? |

Yes, the ends of the latex pillows curve down to a smaller size so it is softer and fuller in the middle, that is why I wanted the King size. Also for the person who wanted to see the latex pillows before they buy, good idea..... Because standard is not as thick, queen is thicker, and king is even thicker. I like the queen size thickness, the standard is too flat for me. Jim was talking about cutting them, I wouldn't recommend that it will never be the same. Just buy 2 standards they are cheap. |

Just ordered 2 JCP queen latex pillows. Natural Latex Pillow with BONUS Cover Hope I got the right ones ?? The price was good and I can return them if they don't pass inspection. 2 queen pillows with the free shipping (current promo code): INVIGOR8 + tax came to $74.21 Not a bad price especially if its Latex International. |
