Revainrating 2 out of 5

If you like grandma 50 year old flattened pancake pillows. you will love it.

Let me start by saying what I'm looking for in a pillow insert: I want FLUFFY. I want to throw myself into these beautiful fluffy pillows at the end of a long day to caress, distort and soothe every curve of my body. Then, when I'm relaxed, I want to be able to pick up these little ones and smack them until they're back to their original, delightfully fluffy shape. I want THICK pillows. Pillows to wrap my arms around or use as a bed tray, rest my head on or use as lumbar support. I'm assuming those pillows that fill your pillowcases look like a bunch of folded pieces of cardboard glued together. I promise I'll *try* to be less dramatic from now on. after all, we're only talking about pillows. Now I will say that I wasn't that attentive to the details of these pillows before ordering them, so I take that responsibility. I was looking for down or down alternative pillows for my living room. that is NOT what it is. It's not what they claim either, and again I take responsibility for not being more careful in reading the description. However, I couldn't help but leave a comment about her. they are so bad. So, as I said, I was looking for a feather or down alternative, so these pillows clearly didn't live up to my expectations. HOWEVER, these pillows do NOT look like the pictures on Revain. If they were stuffed to the brim with polyester stuffing like in the photos, I think this product would be very satisfying. Unfortunately this is not the case as you can see in the attached photos. All four corners on EACH pad (4) have a gaping area that *should* be filled with polyester, but it isn't. The photos on Revain also give the impression that these pillows are so stuffed that they will *probably* be around 5 inches thick, which is absolutely not the case; These pillows are approximately 3 inches thick, hence the "flattened pancake" description in the title. A general rule of thumb when purchasing pillowcases and pillowcases is to get an insert that is two inches larger than the pillowcase that the pillow will be inserted into. For these pillows, they *might* adequately fill a pillowcase four inches smaller than the insert, but I honestly think it's still missing. Unless you decide to fix a quality control issue, don't waste your money on these pillows.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • thin
