Anyone try the Sobakawa Pillow?

[Sweety_tweety]

I was wondering if anyone has tried the sobakawa pillow (it's now on the infomercials)? I would love to hear any opinions.

I buy pillows, but they only seem to last me 2-3 months before they are not firm/fluffy enough. The memory foam pillows feel hard, so I have not tried that. Thanks again!

We really like ours. We have had them for many years and they are still good. They do make a little noise when you wiggle as the bean things shift, but it doesn't bother me. I would recommend an allergy pillow case cover (one that is water proof) since you can't wash the pillow itself. You can basically burrow into the pillow to make it conform to whatever you want.

My dad (71 years old) has one and swears by it. He loves it!!! So does my mom because he stopped snoring so bad.

Me, I tried it and I feel like I'm in the woods camping it's so hard. Like laying down and sleeping on the ground.

I had one years ago, it was like sleeping on a bag of rice. Maybe they've improved some by now.

If you think a memory foam pillow is too hard, you won't like the Sobakawa pillow. I had one and as a PP said, it literally is like sleeping on a bag of rice. Once you get the kernels where you want them they do stay in place, but it is not soft at all. I used mine when I was having neck pain, but put it away in the closet the rest of the time.

My DH and I have had ours for several years. We love them. We ordered some new ones about a year ago and I am not a fan of the new ones. They are much harder than the first ones we bought. I still use my old one even though it probably is full of germs from all the years (you cant wash them like a regular pillow).
