Review on WEEKENDER Alternative Cover Soft Hypoallergenic Standard by Amy Dockery

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect for deception; There are a few considerations for sleep.

This pillow is a good choice for a standard sized pillow. It is light and has a very even filling. It puffs up enough to fill the pretense nicely. If you need a washable pillow, then maybe you should think again. The cover undoubtedly withstands a wash. However, this is advertised as non-washable and my experience with similar pillows is that this type of filling only lasts a few washes before clumping up and you can't fix it. Since in my case we use it as a prop liner and not for sleeping, it doesn't need to be washed, just thrown away occasionally. could you use it to sleep Well, here's the thing: Sleeping pillows should be changed about every 6 months, give or take anyway. If this is new to you, take a few minutes to understand that bolster pillows can be quite uncomfortable. So if you change your pillow regularly and are willing to use an extra cover to reduce the number of washes needed (get the zippered type), then you'll probably be up to the task. In any case, a good quality zippered pouch is a good investment with any pillow and in my experience will outlast pillows. I'm not worried about this pad causing problems in the washing machine - as long as it's loaded properly and the machine doesn't have issues with edge grabbing and things tearing (I once had a machine that did this). You also need a dehumidifier so it can dry fast enough to avoid mold growth unless you are in a very dry climate which negates this issue. Then just rate your own expectations. You will understand! I would recommend this pillow more strongly: Premium Flannel Fleece Pillow (Single Pack, Queen) Ultra Soft Sleeping Pillow - by Utopia Bedding The knitted pillow is slightly larger. It has a more luxurious finish, heavier padding, is washable, and currently costs about $3 less. I hope this helps you with your choice; inform me. Have fun shopping!
