GREAT pillow! for bed pillows

Where to start? I received this pillow late last night (as promised). It had a slight pleasant odor, not enough to want to "air out". pretty flat for me. In fact, I thought about adding more buckwheat, but decided to trust the manufacturer's opinion. I'm glad I did. Some say they don't have a zipper on the pillow. Yes you do. It's so unobtrusive that you won't see it unless you look for it. It's at the opposite end of the end tag. I put the pillow in the pillowcase label first. Start and then hold the "ears" together at the open end with the pillowcase and pillow so that they are level and while keeping the ears in the air the main part of the pillow gently falls into the cover. Then she smoothed the buckwheat so the pillow was flat. I never noticed lightning until I looked for it (and I'm usually pretty observant). Little lightning on a tiny path. Opened it up to see if it works and everything is ok. When I went to bed I lay on it and found that I had to make a small indentation for the head. I sleep on my side and realized I need to make a little "comb" for the neck. Put on a CPAP headgear and died around 4am (when my grandson woke me up). I woke up rested and NO STRETCH IN THROAT! This happened for the first time in months. And then I visited a chiropractor twice a week. I thought sleeping on this pillow might be a "learning curve" as I have "issues" with pillows and am generally a "fickle" sleeper. When everything is wrong, I don't sleep well. Not so with this pillow! The pillow was firm enough that my CPAP hose couldn't slip between the pillow and headboard (up to this point a constant problem had me waking up and reconfiguring the hose). Some reviewers say this pillow is heavy, but I didn't find that to be the case for me. It weighs more than my other pillows, but it wasn't "hard" to move, although as I said, I put it on and forgot about it. I sleep on my side but woke up on my back and even in that position and with so little sleep I felt comfortable and rested. I would give this pillow a 10+ if I could. And I will definitely buy another one in the future. I love love love him.
