1000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton 1000TC Sheet Set, King, Chocolate Solid 1000 TC

1000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton 1000TC Sheet Set, King, Chocolate Solid 1000 TCOrdered these sheets after reading positive reviews on-line but what I got was definitely NOT 1,000-thread-count cotton, but a blend of cheap, short-fiber cotton and some synthetic material to add luster to the sheets. When I opened the package, the sheets had a strong and unpleasnt chemical smell (unusual for any cotton sheets that I had bought in the past). I decided to pre-wash them before using them. When I took them out of the washer, there were short brown fibers everywhere inside the washer I had never seen this happen even with cheap sheets, and it definitely shouldn't be happening with more expensive sheets, it's a sign of a really cheap material. When I dried the sheets and took them out of the dryer, there were again short fibers flying everywhere, and the material did not feel like a high-thread count cotton at all, but like a synthetic blend. I ended up using these sheets only once they feel so unpleasant, and I don't want to breathe in the loose fibers at night. It's possible that the quality of the sheets sold by this company may very from batch to batch (otherwise I don't know how to explain all the positive reviews), but I decided that buying sheets from unknown companies on Amazon is not worth it. After this debacle, I bought 600-count-thread sheets from one of the "discount retailers" for about the same price, and the difference in quality is apparent (in favor of the discount retailer).

I LOVE these sheets. They are undoubtedly the best I've ever owned. Nice deep color, soft, thick and sturdy. I've owned these for a year and they're still like new. I'm coming back now to order some for the guest bedroom!

well, i am not sure if these sheets are really egyptian cotton. they dont feel like it but i guess they are ok. i thought i had bought 1000-thread and it showed up in a 1500-thread plastic labeled bag. thankfully hubby was still ok with them... didnt want to take the time and money to send them back but they are comfy and we love them. only problem is is that they are a little bit loose in covering the bed. i have a king and i had to buy mattress sheet straps to make them a tight fit

I was reading all the wonderful reviews for this product and decided to spend the $$ for a really nice/soft sheet set. I have another set of Egyptian cotton sheets that were 1/4 the price but also much thinner. I was hoping that they would be thicker than they are for the price. They are very soft and seem to be well made. I absolutely love the color...It is very rich and luxurious looking. Overall, I am very pleased with these sheets.

Sleep Innovations Reversible 2-in-1 Bed Pillow

Sleep Innovations Reversible 2-in-1 Bed Pillow, StandardThese are the greatest pillows, period. I can't sleep without it. I even take it on trips with me.

It's firmish and supportive, but squishy and molds to your head, and hypo allergenic!

I bought two of these pillows first at Costco -One for me and one for my husband.

But, he kept stealing mine because he loved it so much! I loved mine too so I went back about

a month later and bought two more. Well, we've loved them to death and now I wasn't able to

find them ANYWHERE, until now. I love this pillow. Thank you Amazon for carrying it!

Everything I read about this pillow made it seem like, "It was THE ONE to have."

I purchased and immediately started using. I noticed it did not flatten out like my feather goose down pillow. I'm the type of person who does NOT like the big fluffy pillows. After nearly 3 weeks of using this pillow I switched back to my feather goose down. This pillow has given me nothing but a sore neck every morning.

To be completely fair, there is nothing wrong with this pillow. I think I may try one of the 100% memory foam pillows next however.

To reiterate, if pillows were rated: flat, medium and fluffy. I would say I am a "flat" type of guy and this is definitely a "medium" style pillow.

I had been waking up with neck pain and stiffness for months, so I started looking for a more supportive pillow. After reading many reviews I decided on the Sleep Innovations pillow. When I received it, I was very dissapointed. I thought it would be thicker, with more support. I was very close to sending it back but decided to try it. My neck pain was GONE the first night I used it. I have had it for a few weeks now and waking up pain free. I am sold!!

Read Best Reviews of Sleep Innovations Reversible 2-in-1 Bed Pillow Here

I used to literally go through 2-3 pillows a year, trying to find one that would work for my screwed-up neck (I've had whiplash multiple times) and that would hold its initial fullness. I have tried the $100 Isotonic pillow (didn't like the bump that forces you to have your neck perfectly straight, plus it softened out), gusseted pillows that still broke down in the middle, cheaper foam pillows, firm pillows, soft pillows, etc. My neck ALWAYS hurt, and even if one of those pillows helped for a little while, they always broke down and I'd start tossing and turning and getting a stiff neck and shoulders every morning.

I bought this Sleep Innovations memory foam pillow a little less than a year ago and I still LOVE it. It's firmer on one side than the other, so if you're a back or stomach sleeper you can use the softer side, and if you're a side sleeper, you can use the firmer side. But it also actually feels thicker on the firmer side, if that makes sense. If I put it on the bed the wrong way, I immediately notice that it's not full enough when I am on my side. Flip it over and it's perfect. I get exceptional support that is soooo comfortable.

What I especially like about this pillow is that it's firm enough with hurting my ears! I guess I press my head hard into my pillow, and any other pillow that I've used that is firm enough to hold its shape without compressing too much would actually hurt my ears. I'd have to use a softer pillow and put a folded towel beneath it to make it thicker. I have never had to do that with this pillow, and while it's softened up a bit over the past year, I just need to fluff it before bed and I'm good for the night. I also sleep with better posture and am not contorting my neck or shoulders trying to get comfortable. I do a LOT less tossing and turning with this pillow (I also have a Sleep Innovations memory foam mattress with the gel layer and would highly recommend it!) I only wish they made it in a king size.

I take this pillow with me everywhere we travel by car, even for just an overnight stay. And I'm certain it's a big reason I rarely have to go to the chiropractor for my neck anymore, after having to go 2-3x/month for nearly 20 years. (I think I have been 4 times total this year, which is amazing.) I finally convinced my husband, who's had neck surgery, to try it out, and after maybe 5 seconds of lying on it, he immediately said, "Yes, get me one." His pillow had completely flattened out. If I could afford to buy one for every family member at once, I would! Truly the best pillow I have ever used!!

pillows are very personalized items, and although some people may find this pillow very comfortable, others may find the pillow's size too large or small for their liking. i personally think this pillow is a decent size, the foam is very nice and the regular side is.. well regular. the nice part about this pillow is that if you really hate the height of the pillow (the biggest problem that i have with pillows) then you can just take the foam part out and put it inside another pillow. people sometimes complain about the smell of memory foam, but i didnt think this pillow smelled bad at all. i did however take it out of the packaging and pillow case and aired it out for a few hours as a precautionary method. overall, i am very pleased with my purchase. i enjoy sleeping on my pillow on my side, or on my stomach.

Pacific Coast ® Double Down Surround ® King Pillow - Featured in Many Ritz-Carlton ® Hotels

Pacific Coast ® Double Down Surround ® King Pillow - Featured in Many Ritz-Carlton ® HotelsHaving stayed in Marriotts (and the occasional Ritz) for business and pleasure, I knew that this was the pillow I was dreaming of. It's a meltingly soft feather pillow, pure bliss to sleep on if you like your pillows soft. The king size pillow is big enough to fold and squash into exactly the shape you want. It's even better to have two or more pillows to layer and build your perfect pillow nest.

After two days of use, the pillow became so compressed it caused neck pain when sleeping on my side. It now resides in a closet.

Magnolia Organics Dream Collection Pillow Case Pair

Magnolia Organics Dream Collection Pillow Case PairI was pleased with the price on the pillow cases, I love to buy organic whenever possible, and was excited to receive them. They came packaged very well! They wash and dry perfectly fine, and I bought the blue. It was a lighter blue than expected but that is fine. I have to say, I disagree with other reviews saying they are soft. I like the look of them and the quality, but they are scratchy on my skin. Its not a pillowcase you can cozy up on. I like how they contrast with my dark brown pillowcases I have and so they look nice on the bed, but I use the pillow with the dark brown to sleep on and the organic blue ones underneath on my second pillow. My husband likes them just fine, but he has a scratchy beard so who knows if he can feel the scratchiness of the pillow case. Overall, the only reason I would buy them again is because the price and they are organic, but I would maybe try another brand to see if there are softer ones.

I only ordered the dark gray pillow cases. They came nicely packaged and washed and dried well.

At the time, no picture was available. The product detail and description did not indicate Window Pane pattern. I thought I would be getting plain dark gray pillow cases, as my gray sheet set has a small pattern already.

Kinda surprised about the pattern, but it is the same color basically and is nice. More interesting than plain dark gray covers anyway.

Now, online it says no picture available, but you can see some in the background anyway and can see the pattern. The dark gray actually looks purple-ish in the picture and does lean toward that side more than gray-gray. If that makes sense.

But they are very nice quality and I love that they are organic! Definitely will try the sheets in the future.

The pillow cases were pretty great-soft, they fit nicely and look nicemost importantly, they feel great. I would definitely recommend them.

I am a huge fan of Magnolia Organics because the white dream sheet set with the windowpane print were my absolute favorite and most long lasting sheets in my house. I was concerned when I bought this sky blue set from the same collection and they felt a little scratchy. The pillowcases almost felt prickly the first couple of times I used them even with fabric softener. However, after about 3-4 washes and patience they finally softenened up, amazingly.

These are now our favorite sheets in the house. The light blue goes beautifully with almost all of our existing comforters and duvet covers, and they look classy and high quality. The color is so light and pretty I see it as a great sophisticated alternative to white.

It is also hard to find deep pocket sheets, and these I know will always fit like a dream. I wash and dry them no problem and they dont shrink. I appreciate that extra sets of matching pillowcases are available at a reasonable price because we use 4 pillows on the bed. The next time I need a set of sheets I will come back to this brand because I know they are a great fit and great quality.

Mine both came shipped in plastic with a fabric bag included. Im not a bit offended that it was packaged in plastic. You need that to protect them during shipping and to keep any moisture out.

For the record, i don't know how a higher than 300 thread count feels like, but i'm very pleased with these and are better than all my previous pillow cases. They are really well made, soft feel, thin but sturdy, nice colors and they wash well. They ship in nice packages and even them are nature friendly (biodegradable).

Maison Chic Knit Travel Pillow

Maison Chic Knit Travel Pillow, LionYears ago I purchased one of these neck pillows for my son and now that we've added a little girl to our family it was time to pick up a new one. Originally, I purchased a different plush one based upon positive reviews here on Amazon, but was sorely disappointed, as it started to fall apart almost immediately. These knit neck pillows are FAR superior and just as adorable. Returned the other one and picked up another one of these and just couldn't be happier. Your little one will enjoy this for years.

PS: I've machine washed these and then let them air dry and it works beautifully.

Greendale Home Fashions Standard Rocking Chair Cushion Set- Cherokee Solid, Sage

Greendale Home Fashions Standard Rocking Chair Cushion Set- Cherokee Solid, SageI bought this chair pad for my mom for Christmas just put it on her rocking chair to replace one that was sorry and sad... The pads are comfortable, but are made smaller than the last set I purchased. The upright pad doesn't 'fill' all the spindles/slats, and the seat pad is about 2" too narrow on each side. Overall it is a good buy, but a little disappointing that they don't actually cover the entire space. Also, the color in the picture appears lighter than the actual color that I got but I like the color sent more than the one shown.

Loved the color, and the workmanship seem very nice, seat cushion however was to small. My rocking chair has a mesh and spring seat covered by a cushion, this cushion was a bit small and the mesh showed near the frame of the chair,

Samsonite Luggage Swiss Gear Double Comfort Travel Pillow With Inflatable Pouch

Swiss Gear Double Comfort Travel Pillow With Inflatable Pouch, Black, One SizeI really wish it would have that anti leak valve, By the time I blew it up and try to cap it, lost lots of air.

I had another one similar to this that served me 2 years. I thought this will be a nice substitution. But the 'lid' is not golding well at all and I cannot close it completely so that the air will not go out. Pretty inconvenient...

Buy Samsonite Luggage Swiss Gear Double Comfort Travel Pillow With Inflatable Pouch Now

I find the extra padding too bulky, but it's a separate chamber and you don't have to inflate it. I used this on a 6 hour flight and it worked just fine for me when inflated a little over half way. The "Samsonite" and "Swiss Gear" in the description made me think it would be better quality. I chose this product only because it shipped from Amazon.

Read Best Reviews of Samsonite Luggage Swiss Gear Double Comfort Travel Pillow With Inflatable Pouch Here

got this for the car. It works great. Helps line the neck up so that it does not get sore. Portable and comfortable. You have to blow it up.

Want Samsonite Luggage Swiss Gear Double Comfort Travel Pillow With Inflatable Pouch Discount?

Swiss-made is usually a testament of quality. I cannot say the same for this one.

It's poorly made. The plastic layer inside is too thin, and the lining is not well-sealed to keep the air trapped. As the result, you'll find yourself puffing it every now and then.

The size is for kid. And as a less than 5'3", that's really saying something.

Also, the pouch is too small to effectively carry the folded pillow. You really have to press the air out, and fold it precisely, for it to fit into its pouch.

I would consider the 10$ price I paid as a rip-off because I had purchased a $7.5 bundle of travel pillow, blanket, and eye-mask from one of a low-cost airlines, that had served me really well. I bought this hoping that the 'Swiss Gear' brand on the thing could bring back my dignity, but I think blowing this thing every 5 minutes is the real embarrassment.

I bought this mattress pad to put on my dorm bed at college (which doesn't have the best mattress). It really improved the comfort of sleeping in it. If you spend a lot of time sitting in your bed note that you can sink in pretty well and it can get uncomfortable after a while, but that's not really its intended purpose anyways.

This might not be the most top quality foam pad out there, but it's reasonably priced and was a significant improvement over what I had before.

Also -be careful handling this when it's not on your bed, I had a small corner piece rip off when my 9 year old sibling got a hold of it...

Note: I paid $20 for this a while back -and mine doesn't have the layered look of the one in the picture (maybe that's of 3 on top of each other?), but Amazon says this is the same product I bought months ago.

KING Size 1200 Thread Count 2pc Egyptian Quality Micro Fiber PILLOW CASES, IVORY

KING Size 1200 Thread Count 2pc Egyptian Quality Micro Fiber PILLOW CASES, IVORYI wanted these pillowcases for a guest room that realy is mostly for display but due to dust I need something easy to wash and iron. No one will be sleeping on them they are just for decoration . When they arrived they were kind of coarse and extremely wrinkled and stated they were 100% Eqyptian cotton. When I reached out to the seller I was told that the microfiber yarns make these cases Microfiber (?). Sending them back would be a wash anyway due to price discounts given......so to Goodwill they go. Giving two stars because even if I wanted this material the quality is just so-so.
