Xtreme Comforts Bamboo Pillow Review
I had a memory foam pillow I tried from Costco, it was nice. It was comfy. I don't use it anymore for good reason.
Little did I know how important a feature it is for a memory foam pillow to be fully machine washable. Seriously. Little Ender (LE) really likes whatever pillow we use, and not the kid-sized one we bought for him, which is fine and dandy; until he gets sick and vomits all over your pillow. Your memory foam pillow that ISN'T machine washable. How the heck are you supposed to "spot clean" vomit? Also, did you know memory foam acts like a sponge?
Desperate, I jumped on Sweethome and found the Xtreme Comforts Bamboo Pillow. In short, it works. It's quite supportive, and smells only a little bit, initially, gone in 24 hours depending how sensitive you are to these things. It arrives in a sushi-like package, and then you rip open the plastic and it unfurls and expands. Fluff it up, smash the heck out of it, or toss it in the dryer for a bit to spread out the shredded memory foam and you can sleep on it the first night. Works great! Until the pillow gets stolen by the wife. Which then gets stolen by LE. So now...we have 3 of these because other pillows were forcibly phased out by wear and tear, or LE's vomit. Ah, the joys of daycare.
Standard size, queen size, and slim (for Little Ender.) Get the slim if you're a stomach sleeper.
Now I can rest easy (ha) knowing if I have another emergency cleaning session, it's as easy as tossing them in the washer.
We took an extra step and got some waterproof pillow protectors too. Because even though the pillows are easily washable, it's better not to have to wash them every time. Worth it.
