What are these pillows filled with? I suffered 3 months with bacterial pneumonia and asthma until I stopped using the pillows. NownI am fine again

The pillow is filled with shredded memory foam but the cover is made of bamboo fibers that are antibacterial & won't let any micro organisms grow. It's hypo allergenic

John, If you do a search for Respironics OptiLife Nasal Pillows, I am certain that something should pop up. We have them in stock but we haven't posted them on Amazon as of yet. I am sure that another seller will probably have these.

I haven't tried, but how did you open the pillow? The filling feels nice and fluffy, but couldn't tell you what's inside there. After 4 straight days of use, the filling is just as fluffy as it was brand new.

It's just synthetic fibre. And don't do it. We thought they sounded good but after less than a month, they're as flat and lumpy as pillows that have lasted literally years. We're returning them. They're crummy.

They completely fill a standard pillow case, which I like. It is a snug fit if you have a zip cover on them too like I do. Still standard size though. They are a little heavier than a non-down pillow, but that is to be expected. The fill seems to be very fine down. The pillows don't feel prickly or pokey in any way. The support is medium, I would say. If they are fully fluffed when you lay on them they mold to your neck and support it nicely while still having that wonderful squishiness. I have had them for a while now and still feel like new. No loss of fluffiness. Hope this helps.

I do not think pillows are equivalent. I had an allergic reaction to them and stopped using them. Did not work for me.

It seems others had better results than I had. I loved my pillow - but after only two months the filling seemed to collapse and shift in the smaller neck roll which is the part of the pillow where my neck rested. I contacted the company and they sent out a replacement. I've only had my replacement for about three weeks and I'm hoping for better results.

Return them and get something else. The same thing happened to us and we ended up with no pillows on the plane!

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.

I can't sleep without microbead pillows and I ALWAYS wash them in the washer and dry them in the dryer. Dry them a little longer though. It probably does cut the "life" of the pillow because once it gets a hole, it needs to be tossed. But I ALWAYS wash my microbead pillows and only have had one get a hole in it. :)

Pillow we received were not the comfortable pillows we experienced at the hotel (we took the name tag from them and ordered the pillows on Amazon). So, we just disposed of them. Never checked the tags. Sorry.

I had no noticeable lasting odor from my pillows. I didn't use them for about a week after I received them, but once I started using them, they were fine

As far as I can tell, it just means that they're a little 'oversized' and super fluffy. They use a standard-sized case just fine. These are not 'king' sized pillows.

I don't remember. It has been a while, but I did not have a problem swallowing them. Sorry to not be more help.

Bkack seed is good for my immunity system, allergies, and respiratory issues. I haven't had a cold in years!

I don't know, I threw it all out as they made me short of breath. I think I was having an allergic reaction to them.....
