Is there a Homedics sqush pillow that doesn't leak microbeads?

I have used Homedics Sqush pillows for several years. I sleep with one nightly. I have found that after a while of using the pillow, about one third of them leak the microbeads. I just stitch up the seam if possible, which is normally the area of leakage.

I have used microbead pillows for years and they have not leaked microbeads

I have had no problems with them. I cut off the tag instead of tearing it, and it seems to be okay. good luck

I have never had any problems with microbeads leaking. We use ours nightly and have for years. Never been a problem. As long as you do not cut the tag to close to the seam, you will not have a leaking issue.

I have a squish tube pillow and it has not leaked microbeads. I use it alone or sometimes I put a bamboo (thin) pillowcase over it.

I have only added water on the initial setup. With this new one, the pillow part was not as thick as the first one I purchased about 4 years ago, so I had to add more water in the beginning. It has never leaked.

I don't know. I haven't had it long enough to require cleaning. Like someone else mentioned, I keep double pillow cases on it and so far it is clean. Suggest eHow or other sites that specialize in How-to questions like this. That's probably what I'll do when I need to find out for myself.

I used the Dirt Devil Simpli -Stik vaccum which has a crevice/corner attachment. It's not expensive. Amazon sells it for $19.

I haven't washed mine, but this review seems like it would help you: http://www.backpackgeartest.org/reviews/Sleep%20Gear/Accessories/Therm-a-Rest%20Compressible%20Pillow/Owner%20Review%20by%20Michael%20Mosack/

I recommend one by a brand we sell called Naturepedic. It has a great waterproof barrier. Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/Naturepedic-Waterproof-Organic-Mattress-Protector/dp/B001BKG5YI/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?m=A2T4Y4GS7H8WU&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1427733764&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=waterprrof+queen+pad I added the link to the queen size since your question was in regards to the queen mattress topper.

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.

I agree with Barbara that if you do try to use it under the pillows, you cover it with something first. My guess is it will still work better under the mattress, because it does tend to shift a bit over time, and that will be worse with less weight on it.We haven't had problems with leakage, though, and except for resetting its position from time to time, the genie has worked quite well for us.

Isolation is quite good with high quality foams. I don't think you will get any kind of leakage with normal usage.

I actually purchased a regular body pillow case on amazon that has a double zipper, Newpoint International Inc. Microsuede Body Pillow Cover With Double Sided Zippers. It is snug, but with the zippers at both ends you can unzip them both, pull the pillow through and it works very well for me. I found it helpful to start it over the end of the pillow, pull it up a little, then scrunch the rest of the case on the one end and while my husband held the pillow I streched the case over the length of the pillow. I was worried about having the zipper in my face, but it isn't as bad as I thought, they don't really stick out like you would expect.

I recommend the Sleep Innovations Reversible Gel Memory Foam Pillow. It has a foam side and a gel side and is very soft. It also didn't appear to have an odor.

Dream aire outlast 350 thread count has worked for me. Order something with extra deep pockets , hope you find something you like.

I picked one up at Walmart - did not stay fluffed for more than a month. I go squish my pillows, but really disappointed with this one. In a few months it is half the size it used to be. If I can find my receipt, I'll be returning it.

Try putting some SHURTECH 736411 / Brownstone Shelf Liner 12"x10' (On Amazon) or a similar shelf liner under your cushion. They make a very thin liner also, but go with the thicker, waffle textured one. Other companies sell anti-slip pads to go under throw rugs and prevent them from slipping around. I use a wedge-shaped cushion to raise my head when I sleep. This stops it from moving around. Good luck!

I found when inflating both of our pillows that moisture residue from breath causes the plugs to slip out. Drying it with a facial tissue resolved the issue for us. Hope it will work as well for you. Bon voyage!

I have been looking for over a year and have not found any. I have 3 black rectangular Sqush pillows that I bought several years ago. They have provided great lumbar support, but the spandex is worn out and needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, the tube pillow seems to be the only option now and it is not available in black.

No. The water is absorbed into the pillow; the directions state you may have to refill every so often but you never take it out.
