Do you hear the buckwheat moving when sleeping on you side?

Yes, but since I am fairy accustomed to hearing my husband's snoring, the sound of the buckwheat is not annoying at all.

No, not after you settle in and stop moving. Was my best purchase of 2013. I suffered from a stiff neck about once a month, lasting a week at a time. This pillow solved the problem. It works great to put it sideways in a regular size pillow case, tucking the remainder inside itself. This keeps the pillow thicker for side sleeping.

no....not any more than the sound of fabric on any pillow...... Love, Love this pillow!!

My husband uses the buckwheat pillow and says that there is no noise in your ear when you sleep on your side. And . . . the comfort of the pillow is outstanding.

a little I removed some filling to customize it to my liking, just take some time to get used to it and youll never use anything else my wife buys a new pillow every month buckwheat will last at least 3 years I have been using them for over 20 years

No. The sound it makes is similar to the rustling sound a high thread count sheet makes when you fluff it. When I move around in bed it makes no unpleasant or strange sounds, only the natural sounds of my movement against the sheets.

I have never noticed any noise while moving around, but then I'm a knuckle dragging Neanderthal male. I sleep year round with one bed sheet a comforter and a room a/c.

I've owned it about 8 months and put it into a special allergan cover that removes the need to wash. I washed my last one(Different Company) and it turned into a petri dish. I would remove the buckwheat if I were to wash it. The owners/manufacturers are really cool and VERY quality oriented. They can probably help you better. But, whatever you do, you MUST BUY this pillow. It's the best! They even wrap it up in a nice big bow, because they really care. I'm a HUGE fan! Robert

no, you cannot hear it. I have it on a futon (which itself has a fabric cover - that's just how a futon is made) so that may be part of why. With or without sheet it makes no noise. I do notice the lower breath-ability though, so I may get a cotton cover to go on top for summer.

Yes, I sleep on my side because of Arthritis in my lower back, I sleep well since the SimplySleeper.

I generally sleep on my side. I like it for that. I occasionally fall asleep reading - so I'm on my back, and I wake up fine. But, I can only speak for myself. I really, really love this mattress!

I normally sleep on my back, but periodically either turn my head, or turn onto my side, and the pillow still feels great. Because the buckwheat hulls are kind of slippery, you can make a sort of "nest" or crease in the pillow as needed without a problem. The really nice thing I've found is that, even when sleeping on your side, the hulls are firm enough that you are lying comfortably on TOP of the pillow, rather than IN the pillow--no puffing up around your nose to restrict your breathing or worsen your allergies.

It does when it's on high. I sleep with it on low and it help's me sleep because I like the white noise it creates.

I sleep on my side, and I have no problem. I have been sleeping with these every night for years and they are the greatest! Sometimes when i wake up it's off but they are perfect for helping you fall asleep. I recommend this product.

No, it does not make any noise at all. It is EXTRA firm as stated, I underestimated it in thought before it came lol. However, my son loves it and sleeps great on it every night.

I don't believe they carry bugs. I have been sleeping on a buckwheat pillow for 10 years. Maybe you are reacting to the buckwheat. Take it away for a week, and see if the itching goes away. Also, be sure to wash the cover with vinegar before using it. I found that the cover had a chemical smell. After washing it, it was fine.

If you're a sensitive sleeper and it's in the same room you might notice it a little, but overall the noise would not wake you up. The loudest thing you will hear is the food dropping imo

I sleep on my side as well. Only reason I noticed any noise at all is because it was mentioned on reviews by those who would obsess over such things. Truth be told, one's own hair makes noise so it is about the same category as that. In other words, the brain ends up overriding these little things after a bit. On the other hand, being that the pillow conforms so well, you end up not moving nearly as much as you may trying to adjust a traditional pillow so I say it's a wash, overall.

That was my first thought when I saw it, but I'm about 99% sure the ridge side is up. I've bee sleeping on my pillow for a few weeks now, and still like it, my only complaint if I need to have one is my whole body is a little lower in the bed, so my feet are at the very bottom of the bed. I guess I don't sleep high enough on the pillow. But I have not had any acid reflux.

Yes or at least it does for me while I'm sleeping. Stopped the line I was getting by sleeping on my side.
