Buy this travel pillow, you won't regret it!

I waited to write this review until I had tried the pillow while traveling. After 6 full flights with transfers totaling around 17 hours en route to/from destination, here's what I have to say. I am so happy with this pillow! It's very comfortable and the memory foam allows you to shape it around you as needed. As a pleb, I always travel economy class, which makes flying one of the most inconvenient ways to get from point A to point B. This pillow allowed me to sleep on most of my flights and in airport terminals. I pushed him into all sorts of positions and he held his position, always pushing himself comfortably into the curves of his head/shoulder/side/back/face/leg and then immediately bounced back. When I got to my destination it became an extra sleeping pillow and it was perfect for that too - the fabric is very soft and cozy. And now some general remarks and recommendations. I say this with the caveat that they should not stop you from ordering this amazing pillow, be aware so you can be a better informed buyer. No removable pillowcase. For me as an airplane germ phobia this seemed like a problem and almost stopped me from buying. Don't let that stop you from buying this pillow! What should germophobes do in this case? I cut up two old pillowcases and hand sewed each for about 20 minutes so the pillowcases fit perfectly. I even attached a button like a mini quilt with a clip hanging at the top of the open side. [It would take a sewing machine about 2 minutes to complete the covers.] When not sewing, use handbag dust bags or soft travel shoe bags to cover them. I didn't wash the pillow when I got home, just the covers and I was perfectly happy by spraying some Lysol on the pillow.2. A small drawstring would serve its purpose better if it had elastic and the inside pocket was about half the size of the pillow. The pillow regularly popped out of its little pocketed ball, and that was because it slipped out of the drawstring and tiny fold-out pocket. Anyway, it really doesn't matter. The pillow compresses so much that you can stretch it out in your carry-on and pack it down to the same size as if it were stowed in itself anyway. Yes, the pillow smelled like memory foam for several days when I received it. To fix this I let it air out and the smell went away. Also, try spraying it with fabric freshener to get rid of the smell. It didn't make much of a difference either and shouldn't put you off buying this pillow. The clip and button didn't bother me at all, I didn't notice them when using the pillow in every possible sleeping position. I should also mention, yes I paid full price for this and did a TON of research beforehand by going through the pages and pages of the travel pillows. Save time and just order it now. If I can afford another luxury, I would like to try their travel towel. This company makes a solid product.
