Should I purchase both the anti-allergen pillow protector and the quilted pillow cover?

If I remember correctly it came with the allergen covers and I just purchased the quilted pillow cover.

I did as it helps reduce allergy symptoms and also protects the quilted cover keeping it and the pillow cleaner longer.

I have been using these pillows for about five years. I recently purchased a pair for our guest bedroom. I have only bought (and replaced) the quilted pillow covers. I have to say that neither my husband nor I suffers from allergies (nor have we ever), though we live in an area that is awful for many people. I suppose a lot depends on your sensitivity level. I hope this helps a bit.

You buy your own pillowcases. The pillows come with covers that with care should last the lifetime of the pillow.

I can understand your concerns if you have allergies. I do not know your question but if you have this item in stores near you I would suggest you buy it local. I got it for my wife that likes it and it is not available in local stores.

I have to get another pillow cover. Problem you might ask InteVision company.

Hi! That's what I thought too, but apparently the tight weave of the fabric makes it impossible for the dust mites to get through. It must work because we've used other covers where myself and my daughter would wake up sneezing and stuffy, but with this cover we are waking up feeling much better. I do wash them every time I wash my sheets which probably helps. (As an aside, do you know that most pillows can be washed regularly in hot water to kill dust mites? I recently found this out and my pillows are now squeaky clean and still fluffy!) I liked this product because of the good warranty, as previous covers fell apart after washing several times but now I feel like I can fall back on the warranty if necessary. Anyhow, here is some info that I found online that explains the company's answer to your question. Hope this is helpful! Cheers! :) Allersoft is the most popular allergy-proof fabric we carry because it is 100% pure cotton and lab-tested to block allergens and dust mites. It's an amazing fabric that is made in the USA with a patented, special super-tight weave. Don't confuse thread count with allergy protection. 100% pure cotton for the ultimate in comfort without sacrificing efficacy. No added chemicals or harsh treatments. With a mean flow pore size diameter of 4.91 microns, this fabric is one of the most effective barriers against pet dander, dust mites, bed bugs and other harmful allergens.

The pillow comes with a case that has a zipper. I would say that the case appeared dirty. I couldn't tell if it was because of the buckwheat dust? / residue? seeming through or not. I purchased a second hypoallergenic case that I put over the case containing the buckwheat.

Thihs company was not forthcoming with answers when I had a complaint. But with my pillow and another of the same type that I bought at Costco, I have sewn the shape into a zipper cover - not as tight or as good as a replacement tho.

I use this cover as the pillow protector. I then put on any pillow case I'd like on top of it. All my pillow cases work on top of this and it matches and works out well.

No. It comes with a standard pillowcase on a zipper which allows you to take out the buckwheat and clean it. Quilted cover would make the pillow less breathable.

I am not sure. I have had the cover on my bed for some time now and no longer have the bag it came in so I do not know. The product seems to be doing ok. It is durable but can not honestly say it is helping with my allergies. All I know is that it can't hurt. :)

Yes. I use a zippered pillow protector and a pillow case that matches my sheets.

I am thinking about buying one which means I most likely will buy the one that's around $100.Supposed to prevent liquids from getting to mattress.

Not the quilted one. It is just the standard cover you see in the picture. I put that into my own pillow case. Sleeping on buckwheat does take some getting used to, but I have really enjoyed mine (so far).

IDK. I made my own. Turn pillowcase inside out. Stitch two sides. Voila. A smaller pillow case. I did the same with the zippered allergen-free cover. Walmart purchase. Then tailored it to fit. Cute little pillow cases for cheap.

There is a bit of hull dust if you don't have a pillow cover. I ended buying the pillow cover that fits this size pillow for $10 from another vendor.

It's a matter of personal preference. The box springs encasement protects from dust allergens. The mattress encasement adds an extra layer of protection. We use both due to allergies. Choose according to your needs.
