Infinite Nature Organic Buckwheat Pillow - Sobakowa Style - Removable Buckwheat. Plus Free Organic Cotton Pillowcase, and Carry Bag. 20" X 15". Special Introductory Price.

I have had a buckwheat pillow for several years. It was beyond time to replace it, but I couldn't find another one locally, and the reviews for the ones online stated that they came with bugs or mold. So I have to say I was happy when I found this pillow with no bad reviews for bugs or mold. I ordered the pillow and couldn't wait for it to arrive.The good: It did indeed arrive bug and mold free.The bad: The pillow is tiny. It barely filled half of my pillowcase.I suppose I am partly to blame for not reading the dimensions of the pillow when I ordered it, but I was excited to finally find a replacement pillow. The pillow is however over stuffed with buckwheat, and has a zipper so you can remove excess. I instead went and bought a zippered pillow cover for about $4.00 and poured all the buckwheat into that. There was enough buckwheat to make a pillow the size I wanted. Overall, a good quality pillow if you are ok with the small size. Otherwise, you might be better off, and save some money, buy just buying a zippered pillow cover and a bag of buckwheat. They sell it on Amazon for around $12.00. I think that is the way I will go next time.

This is my first buckwheat hull pillow. There's a very faint sweet scent to everything, including the cotton pillowcase and travel bag. The cotton pillowcase fits perfectly and snugly, with the "Infinite Nature" label sewed onto it. The pillowcase isn't as soft as I'd like, but after I wash it multiple times, that should help.I seem to sleep more deeply on this pillow than I do on my shredded, gel-infused memory foam pillow, which is now my second-favorite. I think this is because I don't wake up and flip the pillow -- you can't really "flip" this very easily, and there's no need to, because the hulls shift as your head moves.I usually start off sleeping on my back and make the buckwheat pillow stand on its side. That props it up to about 5", which stretches my neck and upper-back muscles and gives me a generous place to rest my head. I also sleep on my side and nudge it slightly to create a sort of "shelf" between my head and shoulder, and I can wrap my arms around it or put one arm under it.It's firm, but not the kind of firm you get from a block of memory foam; you get the feeling that this pillow is working for YOU, not the other way around.This pillow is generously full of hulls, so it's heavy and dense (which I like). I haven't taken any hulls out yet because it's so moldable, there's no need.I've had it for only seven days, and I can tell it will take some time to fully get used to, but I can also tell it will be my favorite or at least second-favorite pillow for a long time.

I'm a side sleeper and have had neck pain for a while so I recently purchased this pillow in hopes that it would help. It is amazingly comfortable. Provides support for my neck and just the right amount of firmness to cradle my head. I no longer toss and turn at night nor to I wake up with stiffness or headaches. You can definitely smell the buckwheat, which I like personally. This is a smaller than standard size pillow (which the measurements are indicated in the product description) but this more than enough pillow for a comfortable sleep. Very pleased with my purchase!

I'm in my 20's and I've had a history of neck problems and pain. I get massages, to the chiropractor, etc. and still have pain. I've been using a tempurpedic pillow for a while. Ever since I switched to this pillow, my neck hasn't been stiff and sore when I wake up in the morning. It molds to my head any way I want it to and while laying in any position. I will never go back to a different pillow now that I have this. I plan on buying more for my couch and for travel!

I had a buckwheat pillow for 15 years that finally had to go. It was shaped like a fish which was absolutely wonderful for my neck. I swear using a buckwheat pillow has saved my lousy neck from surgery. I was told I'd be on the operating table BY 12 years AGO... I say it's the pillow my mom got me on HSN. Anyway, after trying other types of pillows and wasting my money, and still being in pain again, I went back to the buckwheat by trying this one. I love it. It's small but I don't need more than this. It's not exactly as good as my original (which is no longer made), but it works for me and my neck improved once again after unsuccessful tries with shredded foam and even millet. I think I wasted at least $100. It's packaged so nicely and comes with a pillow case and carry bag. I also love how much more portable it is due to it's smaller size and being lighter. My first one was a beast, I have been using regular pillow cases and I just shake the pillow into it and then wrap a side around underneath. I just have to get around to getting some child-size pillow cases. I don't believe I ended up needing to remove any buckwheat from it.

This pillow is a zillion times better than the plywood masquerading as a pillow that I was previously using.My only complaint so far is that I wish it had more filling in it, and I wish it was bigger. It is about 1/2 to 2/3 the size of a regular pillowcase, which kind of stinks. It does come with its own pillowcase, so I do appreciate that, but it swims in the pillowcases that match my bedding set.I look forward to adding some dried lavender to the filling so that it smells lovely for sleeping on.I purchased this pillow because I was having terrrrrrrrrible neck/back pain at night and in the morning. It is basically gone now that I am sleeping on this. It holds its shape very nicely but is easily configured to accommodate whatever sleeping position you are in. This, it works well for stomach, side, and back sleepers as well as the tosser-turner sleepers.
