Currently on my bed I have 8 pillows. I also have a guest room; it has 5 pillows in it. As you can see (or read), I buy a lot of pillows. I suffer from insomnia so I am always in search of the perfect pillow. Pillows and bedding are treats to me, I find them comforting.I had been sleeping on conventional store bought pillows with just cotton stuffing from JCP for several years. They would last a few months and then I would either give the pillow away and off I went to buy a new one to treat myself. One of my friend's house is full of the leftover pillows I had.
I had heard great things about Sleep Innovations and always noticed their high ratings. I was lucky enough to buy the Sleep Innovations Contour Memory Foam Pillow when it was a Deal of the Day, almost a year ago. It was and still is my favorite pillow! Out of all my pillows, this is the one I grab for the best night's rest and sleep. I am a side and stomach sleeper and get the best sleep on it. Knowing how hard I am to please with certain bedding, my mother immediately bought the pillow too. I love the pillow but it is smaller than your standard pillow and at the time I was sharing my pillow with a pet. I then was on the lookout for a bigger pillow and bought the Sleep Innovations Queen Memory Foam Classic Pillow. I figured a Queen would be the perfect size but sadly the pillow did not live up to my expectations. So next I ordered the King size pillows I am reviewing today.
The first thing I noticed was the size of the pillows are exactly as listed. I did not expect them to be 7 inches; they were both 7 inches high and very well stitched. The cluster/stuffing inside was nice and plump. The first thing I did was remove both covers that come with the pillow and washed them. The pillows do have a chemical smell at first but it does go away. I then let each pillow air out all day and put the cover back on with two king size pillowcases. That night I slept on them without noticing any odors. I LOVE how much room you get with these pillows! I was able to place both of them on my queen size bed together without any issues. At first I thought they might be too firm for me but the pillows conform to your head. I spent one day unfortunately sick in bed but rested well because I was using my new pillow. I still have my `favorite' Sleep Innovations pillow on the bed, the contour one, but never switched it out. These are by far the best pillows I have slept on!
These are probably best if you are a back or side sleeper. I have found it a little hard to sleep on my stomach with them but like sleeping on my side the most. With other pillows, while switching from my left to right side I would sit up and turn. Not with these. I am able to easily switch sides because it is long enough and comfortable enough without having to sit up.
If you are looking for a soft pillow, these might not be for you. They are firm without being too firm. The one thing I love is how plump they are! Even after I have slept on them all night with a little shake to fluff them back up, they are like new! I usually fluff them up and sleep on the other side of the pillow so I don't flatten a certain area. With them being firm I don't think they will flatten, however, with a quick shake, they bounce right back up! These are also perfect to watch TV, while in bed since they provide a lot of support behind your back. If the king size is too big for you, they also are available in standard size Sleep Innovations Standard Size Duette Pillow, 2-Pack.
I don't know how long these will last but my Sleep Innovations Contour Memory Foam Pillow looks brand new like the day it arrived, and it is almost a year old. I have only had one pillow from Sleep Innovations I was not crazy about. Since my favorite pillow is made by them, and now these, I don't see myself buying a pillow from the department store again. I have spoken so highly of their quality that my friend bought their memory foam mattress and he loves it!
Not only are these pillows comfortable but made by a reputable company that produces high quality items. Now if you will excuse me, I need to get ready for bed and go lay on these some more, happily so.
This product is just as good, with two extra pluses: There are two pillows in the pack, so I have matching pillows for the bed, and they are king sized, so fill our king sized pillowcases.
It is important to note that these pillows contain beads of memory foam and gel memory foam, and they are not made from a solid block of foam. The memory foam makes them firm and provides nice support. I like the beads better than a block of memory foam. The blocks seem to flatten out and lose their support over time, while the beads just need a quick "fluff" to return the pillow to its original form.
These are not the most expensive pillows you will find, but they are quite comfortable and can help you get a good night's sleep.

I thought I would try these for the price alone. I was surprised when they turned out to be really good pillows. My husband wasn't sure they would be keepers and was glad he finally had a pillow he could sleep comfortable on. These are a really great buy. You can't go wrong with these at all.Read Best Reviews of Sleep Innovations Duette Pillow, 2-Pack Here
This pillow is rock hard. I've never lost sleep over a pillow until I slept on this one. I found it painful in both side and back positions. My poor head never found nesting spot, and my neck was crooked because there is no give in this pillow. I purchased it because of the good reviews. Maybe I received a different version. One star for the price, prompt shipping and easy return, but worthless to me.Want Sleep Innovations Duette Pillow, 2-Pack Discount?
So putting aside the fact that the pillows themselves are more lumpy than deliciously soft, when they arrived they were COVERED IN DIRT...and I'm not talking a little a smudge. I am talking big smears and dirty fingerprints. Definitely returning these.
