The best pillow inserts
I have purchased 12 Pillowflex Synthetic Down inserts in the last month in sizes from 16x22", Standard Queen, 22" square, 24" square, and 22x36". I truly believe that this is the best insert ever made. Initially, I tried feather and down inserts but I found that 1) they mashed down 2) really were not that comfortable 3) seemed a bit lumpy 4) sometimes had an odor and probably were not good to have with a person with allergies. I gave several brands a try and found this to be the same for all of them. Not to mention the sad fact that birds made the feathers. So, how do you get the look and weight of a down pillow but overcome all of these issues? Pillowflex really has the perfect insert. I selected inserts that were at least 1" larger around to get the fullness. If I needed an insert with a bit more support, I actually would go several inches larger. Are they soft? Incredibly. Do they look like down inserts? Better. They are weighty and soft. No lumps or bumps or pokey bits. The inserts will do the karate chop pillow-crease if you like that. They are hypoallergenic. They are not the by product of an animal. They make your pillow cover look even better. I know that you could find a less expensive cover and put one of these in it and it would automatically look high quality. My covers were expensive Designers Guild fabrics but I wanted an insert that did them justice. The only thing I am not sure about is how these would be washed. They are so weighty that I wonder how they would not become a brick when wet. I will contact the company before I have to do that. As a side note, not all of their inserts have the same fill. I also purchased a bolster and found that the fill was the standard lumpy polyester fill. I can tell you that I will continue to only buy Pillowflex Synthetic Down inserts. Amazing.
