All I Want for Christmas...A Disney Resort Pillow!!

[Scrappy_Tink]

Okay, my DH asked me to start a Christmas "Wish List". All I can think of is how comfy the pillow was on our King-Sized bed in the One Bedroom DVC. I'm looking in the Resort Collection Catalog, and they have:

Ultra-Rest, Magic Gel, and Luxury (both in Standard and King)

Does anyone have an idea of which they use on their beds? Their descriptions are:

Choose Ultra-Rest down alternative for ticklish noses or Magic Gel for buoyancy that moves as you do. Our signature, Luxury pillow is filled with ultra-soft, pure down and accented with silver cording and extra-gusseting for added loft.

I just might buy him one for Christmas too....so he won't be stealing mine!!

The ones in the catalog are not the ones they use in the resorts, even though they imply that they are.

I loved the pillow so much I called the company that makes them from my hotel room during my last stay. I read the tag, said it was made in Tyler, Texas, so I called the only pillow-maker in Tyler Texas... the woman who answered the phone said they get calls like mine all the time!

She said the pillows used in the resorts are also sold to Bed, Bath and Beyond (with a slightly different cover) under the Indulgence label.

Thats an older thread all about the pillows.... I ordered mine online, but for the life of me I cant remember where from and I need new ones!!!!!!! It must be one of the many about the infamous pillows, now if I could only find the one that had the name of where I ordered them from.

The thread even had directions on how to tuck and fold the pillowcases like Disney does. I found the tuck and fold method to come undone to quickly and would lose that tightness of the pillow. I stuff my kingsize pillow into a standard size zipper case then do the tuck and fold with the regular pillowcase.

Happy Hunting!!!!!


Update!!! Still cant remember where I orginally bought mine, but found them here

Thanks for the info! Very misleading for the resorts to leave that catalog!

I actually called the front desk, and the person told me something like "we're supposed to say it's the (whatever the name is in the catalog) pillow, but I'm pretty sure it's not really the same thing."

Which was not quite helpful, but I appreciated the honesty...

[Scrappy_Tink]

Love my Beyond Down Pillows! I have an attic full of them, bought a bunch at close-out prices from JC Penney.

I checked both the Belk and the Bon-Ton links above, and found that Bon-Ton has a twin pack on sale right now, and when you combine their Veteran's Day sale code right now, they're cheaper, and they have a better rate (at least to where I live) for shipping. Just an FYI

This is fantastic timing... I've been looking for new pillows, and hoping to find a good price on good pillows.
