OrganicTextiles Talalay Latex Pillow with Organic Cotton Cover (Standard Size, Medium), GOTS Certified, Bed Pillow for Sleeping, Neck Pain Relief Help, Head Support, for Side Back Stomach Sleeper

I have been on the search for a very comfortable, yet supportive pillow for the past at least twenty-five years! First I purchased two Northern Nights machine washable down pillows which were good for many years, but I didn't like being poked with feathers every once in a while! =/ Then I purchased two different Beautyrest pillows, one being a memoryfoam which was definitely soft, but did not provide any support whatsoever! The other was very comfortable for at least a year, but went flat. Maybe two years ago I also purchased a Mainstay brand quilted pillow from Walmart. Even though it was quite comfortable for at least a year or so, eventually that one went rather flat and I had been tossing and turning for the past at least six months!After recently purchasing Organic Textiles 3" Soft Latex Mattress Topper and finding it extremely comfortable and supportive, I decided to save up and purchase their Talalay Latex Pillow that comes with a 100% organic cotton hidden zippered cover when it was 15% off a couple of weeks ago! Even though it was the most expensive pillow that I have ever purchased, it was totally worth the price that I paid!! When it arrived, it did have a latex smell to it, but after laying it out on my dining room table in front of my window for almost six days, there was no detectable smell at all! I slept on it that night (which was last night at the time that I am writing this review), and I can honestly say that I had the best night's sleep on my Organic Textiles Talalay Latex Pillow that I have had in a VERY loooong time!! I like to sleep on my side and this Talalay Latex Pillow surrounded my head with cushiony comfort! It works quite well if you sleep on your back, too! I used to always sleep on my stomach, but no longer do, so I can't speak to how comfortable this pillow is for all of you stomach sleepers out there. Five stars from me for comfort and support, but for those of you who may need a lot of support, you may want to consider the Medium or Firm if you are thinking about ordering this Talalay Latex Pillow With Organic Cotton Cover with hidden zipper from Organic Textiles. I highly recommend this pillow!! Thank you, Organic Textiles!! =)

I almost didn't buy this after reading the bad reviews. There is nothing wrong with the shape or quality of this travel pillow. In fact, the latex is high quality. It's covered by a zippered muslin pillow cover. On top of that is a luxurious organic cotton envelope pillow case, which costs $25 if you order it separately - worth it! See for yourself in these unboxing photos.I tried it last night as a between-knees pillow in bed. It was super comfortable, so much better than those awful foam pillows with the curves that are so hard they hurt.

These type of pillows are THE BEST! I had my first one as a child and didn't realize they still made them until recently. Super comfortable and I love the support and cushion. I purchased 2. Know these will last a long time and so happy to have them again!!!

I've used latex pillows exclusively almost all my life - over fifty years in fact! They last for years and years, but the ones I had were starting to yellow and get a bit crumbly on the surface - time to replace! This one is the perfect firmness - on the soft side - I am a back and side sleeper - often put my arm or hand under my head/face when on my side. This one is perfect. Firmer latex triggers neck discomfort in the morning. This one doesn't. BUT - the big BUT on this one is that it really does smell "bad" when new. First I put the pillow (with the cover) in the dryer on a no heat "air only" setting for a bit.... didn't help at all. Then I removed and washed the cover and aired the pillow itself for two days. It still had a bit of residual odor when I started using it, but it wasn't objectionable since the cover and pillowcase were fresh smelling. The seller does include a little info sheet with the pillow disclosing that the latex may have an unpleasant odor that will dissipate with time so at least I knew to expect it. GREAT pillow that I expect to have for years to come - just be prepared for the smell when new. I'd give five stars but I've never had a latex pillow with this issue before and really found the odor foul - the seller claims that it is the nature of all natural latex.... I dunno.

The pillow is very comfortable and the neck support is amazing. It rebounds and cradles your head in every position. I have been searching for a latex pillow for years that could compare to one I had years ago from Bed Bath and Beyond, and this is it! My sleep quality has improved greatly. Thank you for the quality and care that was put into making this pillow. It’s not flat and it’s not too high. The zipper is not even a concern. This is a very good buy. Worth every penny.

It is the most comfortable pillow I have ever owned.
