HOMESCAPES - White Duck Feather Pillow Pack of 4 Pillows (Set of 2 Pairs) - Machine Washable - Hypo Allergenic & Anti Dust Mite RDS Certified.

After reading some mixed reviews (especially with a few specifically mentioning insufficient filling) I was a little hesitant initially. However, I've been using a Homescapes goose down quilt for some time which for the most part is of good quality. (A couple of the box baffles (sections) weren't quite equally filled but it's a minor issue & I've been very happy with it in every other regard). Going by the overall quality of my Homescapes quilt I decided to go ahead & purchase their pillows as well. The moment I opened the massive box they arrived in I could immediately see & feel I needn't have worried about the amount of filling. All 4 have ample & equal filling for medium density pillows. The down proof cotton covers are a nice thick fabric & they also look, & feel good quality too. (The outer fabric of my quilt is quite rustly although it has improved over time, however, these pillows barely rustle in comparison new. You can hear the fabric of the pillows gently rustle when you move your head but it's not annoying & it's minimal IMHO). The pillows are well finished all round, I closely checked each of them & I couldn't find any tatty ends or poor stitching at all. I still aired them before use but it wasn't absolutely necessary, there were no odours new out of the bags. (The quilt didn't have any odours upon receipt either & the filling that Homescapes use seems to be well treated). Once inside antibacterial pillow protectors it's a bit of a squeeze getting these pillows into some of my outer covers, when fully plumped up they are huge!! They are very comfortable, I've had no issues with being poked or prodded by sharp shafts/quills, & I have no complaints at all. They do trap in a lot of air & plump up very nicely, (obviously a good degree is squeezed out when weight/pressure is applied), but they still hold some air in quite well. They can flatten out at times depending on how they're being used, a jolly good shake soon restores them & a regular plumping also helps them over time. (I'm badly disabled & I suffer from severe chronic pain due to spinal injuries I sustained during my service in the armed forces. Obviously, it's VITAL that I have comfortable pillows & bedding or my problems are aggravated even further. Finding the best options for my particular circumstances can be a royal pain at times too, but in this instance I've got lucky again with Homescapes' products & found precisely what I was searching for). As with most things, there are pros & cons to down/feather vs hollowfibre & I really had, had enough of the cons of hollowfibre quilts/pillows. Personally, 3 of these pillows are sufficient to prop me up (although I also have a fully adjustable hospital style bed to help in that regard too). I can only lay on my back as well, I can't lay/sleep on my sides or stomach at all. 2 of these pillows are perfect for head & neck support for me laying flat. Otherwise, I really can't comment on their suitability or comfort for side sleepers, (I would imagine 2 would still be sufficient for those of a slight to average build). The pillows are simply packaged as pairs in clear plastic bags with a cardboard insert from the manufacturer with product & contact details. The pillows I received weren't compressed & they were essentially ready for use straight out of the bags. There are multiple labels stitched onto the pillows in a group, (they include instructions for care/maintenance, the specific type & ratio of the filling, a "hand signed" quality control check label, & a label with details for contacting the manufacturer directly). I'm certainly very happy with their quality, especially for their price when compared to expensive alternatives. I would certainly purchase more in the future if needed & I'd happily recommend them. Very good. 5/5. UPDATE - My niece has just moved into her 1st flat. I had promised I'd help out with a few things she needed starting out & she asked for some pillows. I immediately ordered another x4 pack of these for her. The 2nd batch was IDENTICAL to the 1st & she's very pleased with hers too. (Mine continue to be very good also. As previously mentioned, they can flatten out quite a bit when used more for propping up with the extra weight upon them. A really good shake/plumping on a regular basis puffs them straight back up again & stops the down compressing into a firm mass. They could actually go much larger if my standard sized outer cases weren't restricting their maximum size too). That's 2 seperate orders (x8 pillows) that we're very happy with!! 5/5.

These are really soft pillows which was exactly ehatvI wanted. They plumped up nicely from the packaging and I aired them in the sun for 12 hours, no smell. Material is lovely, soft and gentle

I prefer feather pillows. My previous set, however, kept shedding small feathers which are often hard to hoover up. This set comes highly recommended and I hope it will solve that problem. The pillows are the right size and thickness for me, are supportive, the filling is full and they were reasonable priced for feather pillows.

They came nest day but as the order was on Prime that was to be expected. On seeing the parcel I was initially going oh my god they are as flat as a pancake. However, on opening the parcel and shaking the pillows out they almost immediately fluffed up . In fact I advise on receipt of these pillows give them a good shake. The do tell this in the instructions but who reads those. I have now left them to sit on the bed and will give them another shake in a bit. The fabric covering for the pillows appears to be very good and not some cheap thin fabric. it is also finished well. Most important is the fact there is no smell. I was dreading that. Many feather pillows have a terrible smell which I've come across in the past. This is a report on my initial assessment I'll reassess in a few weeks time.

Finally pillows that are incredibly comfortable and give a good nights sleep! No neck aches just bliss. Feathers are slightly noisy but really nothing to put me off them. Can be pumped into a shape that suits and boom I’m asleep very quickly. Will be buying more soon.

Nice pillows but not very full. Similar to the old ones I threw away. But good price and clean, with no feathers coming out. Same density in both pillows (equal filling)

I honestly can't believe it, i have bought so many sets of pillows only to end up giving them away or throwing them. And not cheap ones either. I have slept through the night since I bought these, and I was tossing and turning all night.very comfy. They mold around your head.not too full and not too flat, just right my only moan is be prepared they do make a slight crinkly noise, but for the sake of a good night's sleep it's well worth it and hardly notice it now ❤️

I have spinal pain and I am a side sleeper as I can't sleep on my back properly. I have trouble getting support for my head when getting off to sleep and often had a stiff neck in the mornings through lack of support. I found these allows are perfect for me. They hold their shape well and are of a good height and plump up nicely. They come vacuum packed and you might think you've been delivered a length of board! Once the vacuum seal has been broken they soon take on a good shape.

I totally recommend! Fixed my back problems and are a joy to sleep on!

Magnifiques

Rapport qualité, prix très bon, coussin, aéré, moelleux et belles finitions. Je suis très contente de mon achat.

Compre un juego de cuatro y despues otro juego más. Son de buena calidad, blandas pero no demasiado. Muy comodas. Bien de precio.

Top qualité, juste attention au conditionnement car le sac en plastique est arrivé déchiré de part en part. Heureusement les oreillers étaient en bon état. Merci
