I've never owned a shredded foam pillow. Mine just arrived and it is flat and lumpy. What do I do to fluff it up and smooth out the lumps?

Open it....it will pop up. I thought the same thing. I could hardly get it in the pillowcase once it aired up

Shake it out and if that doesn't get it fluffy enough for you put it in the dryer on "air" for about 20 minutes.

The dryer works wonders, but if you don't have one you can hold it flat in front of you and bounce it on your lower arms for a bit. I usually do this after finding a 20lb cat has spent the day curled on it.

We took ours out of the bag and let it expand for about 24 hours. Then we fluffed it in the dryer for maybe 2030 minutes and it's been great ever subce no problems and it's not lumpy

Fluff it up. Don't worry about the lumps. They'll compress when you rest your head on the pillow. You can fluff it every time it feels flat, and that will help maintain the loft and cushiness. You can fluff the foam pieces into areas that support your head position. I bought mine very recently and I'm really happy with it.

I open the plastic and it started to "inflate". After letting it sit for two days, I flufed from the outside to the center and that was it.

Mine puffed out by itself after opening it. It smells for about 48 hours. Love it now. Most comfortable pillow I have ever owned.

No this pillow is pretty thin/flat. Try the pig pillow, has more cushion, I own 3 of the pig pillows

I see I did not completely answer your question about lumps. It is not lumpy, however there are the jade discs so it is not fluffy. Just firm I guess is a way to describe it. There are layers within the pad as well. It is terrific to use. The deep heat is so restorative. Hope this helps you decide to get your own Healing Pad.

It is small chucks of memory gel foam, packed inside a case. The pillow I have feels like a memory foam pillow, but is looser than the single piece foam pillows. It's not too cool for me, perhaps the shredded filling allows better air circulation? Before I bought another pillow, though, I would probably buy an inner zipper case and cut the existing foam into small pieces, and stuff those in the zipper case. Make your own shredded memory foam pillow.

Well, the one I got was completely flat. I did place it in a pillow case. My dog absolutely loves it. I guess if yours is wrinkled and it does not smooth out - return it or try laying something heavy on it to flatten it. Just a guess. Hope it helps.

I've had the pillow for a couple of months and it has not gone flat. The nice thing about this pillow is that you can pat it down to make it more firm, or fluff it up to make it fuller and softer.

I agree with Chris. My bed is really firm and also new, and I find the topper makes it more comfortable. It's a medium amount of "squish," so if you want an ultimate pillowtop feel, maybe go with a thick all memory foam topper.

Mine was a little flat too. I think if you just leave it sitting out, it should fluff up and be ok.

That definitely does not sound normal. There were no foam bits anywhere on mine when I got it almost 2 years ago. Have used it every night since and you'd never know that it's not a brand new pillow. If there are foam chunks coming from the pillow you should return for exchange or refund.

Hey...same thing happened to me. Shake it to 'fluff up' the down. Puff it w your hand too. I did that for about 10 min. Mine ended up expanding. Mine is actually too warm for me. I have to run the heat down 4-5 degrees more than I used to.. but then I don't want to get out of bed in the am. Good luck w it...should be fine. Morrison

My suggestion to you is to call the manufacturer directly at 1-800-544-8434. It is completely washable I honestly swear by this pillow! All u do is stick it in the dryer every so often and it keeps getting fluffier.

It should be flat. I'm guessing your base isn't level; the mattress is still expanding; or perhaps it is defective but this would be a really big quality control oversight if it is a defect. Mine was misshapen until about 48 hrs after it was unpacked

Mine were out of the box and ready to use. I read that if you put in a dryer for 10 min that will flufff the pillow, but I didn't think it was necessary. Best pillow I've ever used!

The original pillow I got was only hulls. I guess some people felt it wasn't soft enough (frankly I didn't mind it at all - as I have used a buckwheat pillow before). I just recently received a bag of foam to incorporate with the hulls to make the pillow softer. I didn't notice any "ingredient" information on the package. I haven't done actually mixed my foam yet. This said, I'd bet you could request only hulls.

I would recommend contacting the company to see if they have any options to make it less fluffy for you. Their customer service is amazing, truly amazing, and they may be able to suggest something that would help. It is a fluffy pillow, and we haven't had ours long enough to know if it flattens, but it is worth a quick note to them as the quality of this pillow is excellent!

Can anyone share any recent experiences with the packaging? One customer image shows foam lining, while another one shows only air pillows. Those images were uploaded on May/June though.
