If this is anything like the “As-seen-on-TV” bamboo pillow I got from TJ Maxx, then the smell this things holds onto is horrendous. Not to mention that it is very firm and to top it all off, has pretty much nothing to do with Bamboo.
The bag that mine came in even said something like, “this does not contain natural bamboo.”
Again, I cannot confirm those statements for this pillow…but I suspect this one maintains the status quo of “Bamboo Pillows.”
YMMV. Best of luck and happy wooting.
These pillows cost $15.39 each on mother Amazon,with free shipping. The cover is allegedly 60%bamboo.The filling is memory foam,and who knows what that is made of. Bought Panda LIfe pillows at Costco a week ago;seems to be a similar product.Cost much more.Still airing them out. These pillows are heavy and kind of weird. Down is still my favorite.
I have had this pillow for over a year now, and can verify that of all of the pillows I’ve tried, this one has been most comfortable for my spine injuries, which involve fusion of nearly all of the vertebrae of my neck and upper back. I tried many pillows… contour ones, water pillow, and others, but of all, this one has been the best one.
Mike told us these are no good.
I’m sorry if this is a silly question but it seems like there are 2 different kinds of bamboo pillows. One likes like it’s kind of flimsy and not very stuffed and the other seems like it’s very stuffed and looks like it’s a better quality. Do you know if this is the very stuffed one?
Thanks in advance for any help and happy wooting

My husband and I bought a couple of these pillows several months ago and we love them. I’ve had several neck surgeries and had given up ever sleeping through the night ever again. Looking at them, they are identical to mine. That means an overstuffed pillow with a thick, very soft cover (zips on and off, removes easily for cleaning) and no foul smell. Heck, this is such a great pillow it could be stuffed with dead cats and still be a great deal. Do yourself a favor and buy a set today.
Love the ones that I bought at Costco. I wonder if these are the same. Best pillow ever!
I bought these and they are very heavy and too firm.
I bought these and received last week. Wife and I both really like them. I was able to ditch old pillows and replace with one of these. It is firm, but that’s what I needed, the too soft pillows are no good for neck.
To each his own.
10,000yr pillows…cause that is about when they might be broke in enough to be comfortable.
These pillows are amazing for watching tv and molding under my squishy pillow for support. Love mine! Yes,they are firm, but very comfortable.
These pillows come rolled in a tube, but don’t let that scare you. They will fit inside a regular pillow case, but it is a tight fit. They are heavy and bulky once expanded, but very soft to the touch. Excellent pillows to prop behind you and sit up in bed. Excellent as a shortened body pillow to hug. Memory foam. Better for a side sleeper than a back sleeper. I’ve had mine a month and like it. No odors at all.
bought 2 of these a while back and personally I think they’re great. yeah, they’re heavier than most pillows but they’re memory foam not feathers so that’s to be expected. Think I’ll get two more
I can confirm some of it. The pillows are very firm. They didn’t have an odor and the cover is a small % of bamboo 64% polyester 36% rayon from bamboo. Here is what most people don’t know the inside is filled with scraps. Not just memory foam scraps I expected that. But, memory foam with some kind of stiff vinyl attached to it and some of it was soft plastic circles no clue what in a mattress factory would have that. I cut mine open to see if I could soften it up. That didn’t work. I’m a stomach sleeper these were terrible even for a back or side sleeper. I will be using them as back cushions on a couch I will be reupholstering.
I hope these are like the one I bought at the home and flower show in Cleveland, Ohio this year. It sounds like it. I paid $60.00 for one and I’m not sorry. No smell, very comfortable (I’m a back and side sleeper). Great for my neck.
I’ve bought 5 sets for my family. I’m sure they will love them. SL
Bought 2 of these before and they are way to thick and uncomfortable. They are now dust collectors in my closet. I don’t recommend.
My wife and I picked these up last time they were offered here. We love them. They did smell for about two days after opening the packaging. But we just left them out in the living room for those two days and let them air out. Also ran them through the tumble dryer. The smell is SOP for memory foam pillows.
We also have the Costco version of these pillows and love those. However, these Bamboo ones are higher quality.
I bought these. My wife doesn’t like them but I do.
The smell went away after a few days.
