  • No regrets, perfect comfort match
Size: Standard Style: Essential Pillow Product Packaging: Two Pack
I purchased the Casper Essential Pillow a few years ago for my husband at Costco and immediately wished I’d grabbed extras. This pillow has held up its shape better than any pillow I’ve ever owned — it’s never gone flat, lumpy, or lost its structure over the years. I finally decided to buy more during Prime Day for the rest of the family, and I’m so glad I did. The value is incredible considering the durability, comfort, and longevity. It’s unbelievably fluffy yet perfectly supportive. I’m a side and stomach sleeper who occasionally rolls onto my back, and I’ve had zero neck pain or need to scrunch it for extra support. Plus, it looks beautiful on the bed — full, plush, and inviting. Thickness is just right for all sleep positions. It’s not adjustable but we haven’t needed to since it’s comfortable as is. If you’re tired of constantly replacing pillows, this one is absolutely worth the investment. I won’t have to shop for pillows again anytime soon! ... show more

  • Fall Asleep Instantly
Size: King Style: Essential Pillow Product Packaging: Two Pack
Love these pillows. I have sensitive ears and can't use a lot of memory foam pillows that are on the market everywhere. These are very easy on my ears, and I absolutely love how they feel, not too soft and not too firm. Just right as Goldilocks would say.

  • Great pillow but priced a bit high

  • It is Just AMAZING!!
Size: Standard Style: Essential Pillow Product Packaging: Single Pack
I have delayed buying a pillow for far too long and until I had eye surgeries, didn't realize how bad my old pillow was. I had been using a rolled up towel under my neck to support my head. I woke up DAILY with sore neck or shoulder muscles and far too often a headache. Pillow shopping is fraught with a bewildering number of choices and prices from low to astronomical. I bought this on sale at the holidays, based on the high number of excellent reviews. Best gift I gave myself this year. The. BEST. Gift!! FYI, I am a back and side sleeper, so I can't comment if this would work for tummy sleepers. Out of the bag, it fluffs up fast. Had NO icky chemical smell or odor. I almost thought it was the wrong pillow, I expected thinner than this. I was a little nervous about trying it. Well, let me tell you, this pillow is FANTASTIC!!! It instantly conformed to my head. I woke up for the first time in YEARS without: A headache, sore neck, sore shoulders or sore anything else. I almost cried I was so pleased. I thought it must be a fluke. It wasn't a fluke. I sleep so comfortably, wake up pain free and refreshed. The only con is that it's so thick, it barely fits in a standard pillow case. I honestly would rate this higher, if I could. ... show more

  • Very Soft and Plush
Size: Standard Style: Essential Pillow Product Packaging: Single Pack
This is a very squishy pillow. Feels very hotel-like a nice down pillow but does not give much support. I had to use a more firm pillow under it to get the firmness that I was wanting. If you like a very fluffy, down feeling pillow it is good but not firm enough or supportive enough for me.

  • I had to leave this comment
Size: King Style: Essential Pillow Product Packaging: Single Pack
I don't leave nearly as many comments as I should -- since I rely upon them when shopping. In this case, I really had to. But I found a shortcut because the top comment took the words out of my mouth. Line-by-line I agree with everything she had to say. So here it is again: "Finally a Pillow That Doesn't Hurt My Neck" In the past few months, I've tried every kind of pillow imaginable to help alleviate the neck pain I experience at night. Finally, at the recommendation of my sister, I tried this Caspar pillow. On my first night, even though I still had some neck pain in the morning, I wasn't awakened by it and slept through the night. It's only gotten better since then. The pillow is firmer than a down pillow, but it still has a fluffy (not thick) feel to support me whether I sleep on my side or on my back. I can fold it around my shoulder or tuck it under my chin or against my cheek. The center of it, where my head rests, feels firmer than the sides. Until my neck pain started, I preferred a relatively flat, firm pillow. I hated too much loft, whether by stacking pillows or sleeping on a super-stuffed one. When my pain entered its second week, I started experimenting. Memory foam and cervical neck pillows kept my head from moving, which turned excruciating two hours in. Alternative down pillows from other known mattress companies, even those pillows labeled "soft," pushed my head too far forward due to their thickness, also making the pain worse. Even though I'm allergic to feathers, I almost tried down pillows, but fortunately I found this Caspar first. It has a lot of loft, but the weight of my head sinks better into it than with other pillows. It doesn't keep my head from moving, either. It just feels fluffy and soft and gentle. I went back and forth between getting the Essential Pillow or the Original Pillow. Since they sounded similar, I finally settled on the Essential because of the price at the time. After all, I had already spent a lot on trial pillows. It must be dry-cleaned, however, while the Original does not. The pillow comes tightly rolled inside a compact box. Immediately, when removed, it fluffs up to the size and shape it should. (The company says to wait 48 hours before full loft -- I didn't find a lot of difference after the first couple of hours.) It is not a memory foam pillow; it does not have that squishy feel. Instead, it feels as close to down, with a supportive middle, as alternative down can get. All I will add is that I find myself wanting to turn in earlier just for the comfort and relief! ... show more
