Is this buckwheat filled?

Yes. That is what the package said and I think it says that in the description. I am still loving my pillow. I actually feel good about going to bed because I know it will cradle my head and neck perfectly. Enjoy!

No it has micro beads and they have a chemical smell. It took about two months before the smell went away and I could use the pillow. Once the smell was gone it was really comfy and I could enjoy.

no it is filled with micro beads....such as the ones that wrap around the neck for travel...

yes, if you take about enough of the buckwheat out it would. You'd probably have to remove about half?

I find that it form to my neck and supports it very well. I'm not sure firm is the proper term as the buckwheat needs to be able to move and form to your neck. I like it so well and it is easy to pack that I take it with me everywhere I travel. I highly recommend this product. Hope that helps Anthony..Bob Houston

Because I was not there when the buckwheat was grown and harvested I can only trust the description that it is organic. I have not had any type of reaction so I have to say it is organic.

It is seedless, I make wedding cakes, and use this filling all the time. It is delicious

Mine does not smell like vinegar at all. This is the second buckwheat pillows I have bought. Neither had a smell. I love them.

No and yes. It is filled with buckwheat hulls so washing would make the dry hulls soggy and awful.. so, cut a hole in the end and pour out the filling. Wash the now empty sock tube anyway you want then reassemble and whipstitch the hole closed. I add lavender to the hull mix and refill. This refreshes everything. Funny mfg wouldn't have a similar solution.

I had to go read the package... While buckwheat isn't wheat, this product IS milled in a facility that also processes wheat, so cross-contamination is possible. Use a certified wheat-free buckwheat (Arrowhead Mills has one) if you have Celiac or are otherwise sensitive to gluten.

Absolutely! I got an extra zipper case and divided the buckwheat into two pillows, which I love. Gives me so many options of how firm and how high I want them.

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.

The package is marked: Organic buckwheat hulls. I am very please with them and can highly recommend them as well as the pillows which Amazon is selling. I had purchased them before and like the buckwheat pills. I bought the hulls since my friend wanted more filling. I was fine with them and there was also no getting used the time. They were great right from the start.

As far as I remember, Ligaplex I, the one I usually use, has buckwheat in it.

No, it has a simple cotton casing. BUT--it remains the best buckwheat pillow anyway because of the amount of high grade buckwheat contained therein.

I was bothered by the texture more than the taste. It's kind of mushy. I wouldn't purchase again. Don't know if you are interested in buckwheat pasta, but I like King Soba Gluten Free & Organic 100% Buckwheat Pasta Noodles. I cook them for 4-5 minutes with oil in water and drain and run cold water over them and they are delicious.

Perhaps Renee is confused between wheat and buckwheat. Buckwheat is not a grain; it is the seed of a flower. Buckwheat is gluten free.

True, Buckwheat is NOT wheat - It is considered to be very healthy for you and some consider it a 'whole grain' but some say it is a 'seed' but it is still - Gluten-Free.But to get for information check out http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid;=11 - and I would do more searches online for Buckwheat benefits. Because Buckwheat is Very Very Good for you and can be used for breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks...

Yes, this pillow has a zipper so you can remove or add buckwheat to your specifications.
