Buy Leggett & Platt Home Textiles Micro Latex Pillow In Zippered Bag with Insert, T200 Cover Now
I keep looking for the perfect pillow.I'm almost there. Just a pinch firmer, than it's perfect.It certainly outranks feathers and memory foam.In looking at the reviews on this pillow I thought it was exactly what I was looking for. It is not! Don't waste your money like I did. This pillow is pieces of rubber inside a case, not a solid piece of latex like I wanted. Not firm at all. The rubber pieces just roll around inside. You have to keep punching it up to have anything to sleep on. VERY DISAPPOINTING! I tried saving a few bucks but I will go back to Penney's to buy their $47 good firm latex pillow. At least I know what I'm getting there.Tuesday, March 4, 2014
Leggett & Platt Home Textiles Micro Latex Pillow In Zippered Bag with Insert, T200 Cover
Knew when I got it out of the box this would be right for me! Some years ago I left "my pillow" behind on a road trip, which was a shredded foam I had for over 10 years. Always got the best sleep with it. Have purchased every sort of non-foam, even a solid latex, but nothing ever gave me the comfort "my pillow" did. When I came across this one on Amazon while searching for a latex bed topper, and read the reviews of this one, as well as others, I figured I could always bag it back up and donate it to a shelter for it's small price tag, if I wasn't happy with it. I slept on it for a few nights, and decided I would have to make these small and easy fixes to make it perfect for me: Take it out of the zipper case it comes in, brush off the few pieces of "foam lint" stuck to the nice shadow stripe ticking which encases the shredded foam, and set it outdoors for the day to air out. There is a slight latex odor. I washed the zipper case to freshen and soften it. The pillow is nicely filled, and a bit heavy, but I wanted it more puffy, so I used my sewing machine to shorten up the casing about 3 inches, as well as the zipper case. This might seem like too much trouble to most, but being a side sleeper who ends up on her back, with arthritic shoulders, this pillow is a Godsend to me! Hurrah for shredded latex! Bottom line: Inexpensive, may need your own personal touches, but if you want great sleep try this pillow!You can pay $20 more for almost the same pillow at Bed Bath and Beyond. I owned three chopped foam pillows, this is SLIGHTLY less "stuffed" than the other two, but overall a great buy. It had a very chemically smell for the first couple of days even in a case but it aired out quickly (you could probably stick it outside and have it gone in a day). Just be aware, its chopped memory foam, not a solid block. I like the ability to shape the pillow to the thickness and size I want, but its nothing like the solid memory foam pillow which I also have.
