So, I decided on a pillow that could offer firm support to maintain a neutral neck alignment but would be able to accommodate my various sleep positions throughout the night. So, I settled on the Bucky. Because of the Buckwheat, it is able to be shaped into the desired shape needed to support your head within seconds. For example, when I first go to sleep, I start on my side. So, I keep most of the pillow uniform, except a add a little extra support above the shoulder to support my neck (like a cervical roll). If I change during the night and sleep on my back, the pillow easily conforms by creating an indentation for my head but still adding support for my neck's natural lordosis.
To sum up everything I tried to say above, I love how flexible this pillow is considering how supportive it is.
FYI: The buckwheat pillow is not comfortable on the face. However, for those with neck pain, your goal should be a neutral cervical spine so sleeping on your stomach is discouraged anyway. I appreciate that this pillow serves as a sort of reminder. As far as temperature, I have not noticed any difference in temperature from any other pillow and I have used down, memory foam, and synthetic fiber filling pillows before.I LOVE this pillow. I previously had a buckwheat hull only pillow, which totally doesn't compare to this one! Shipping was SUPER fast (from Comfort Essentials), rec'd it 6 days earlier than estimated. My ONLY complaint is the pillow is SO SMALL. Get out your ruler on this one, because it would fit a 5 yr. old better than an adult. Wish they made this in a larger version, I'd gladly pay the price!
Buy Bucky Buckwheat Bed Pillow Now
Please buy this pillow from this company. Learn from my mistake. We ordered these first and loved it so much and thought the same thing as another review "wish they sold these in a larger size". Bigger is not better my friends! This is the only one you want. The larger size by another seller is firm, loud, and literally a pain in the neck. These ones are soft, quiet and form to your neck for perfect comfort.I have had this pillow for almost five years and am just now beginning to notice it needs a refill. It is definitely worth the money!I have suffered for years from migraine headaches and neckpain. So I decided to try a buckwheat pillow as the "memoryfoam" ones didn't help at all. I did a LOT of research and decided on an expensive organic buckwheat pillow online that had a section on it for the cervical area. It was full sized, my friends, who are complaining about the small size of "Bucky". It was also VERY heavy, making it unable to take it with me for travel, not to mention just lifting it. I used it for about a year, taking hulls in and out in an effort to make it just right for me. I never was successful in making it "just right". Finally, one day, I was at Bed Bath and Beyond and happened to see the Bucky Buckwheat Pillow. It was small, admittedly, and came in its own travel carrying bag. It was only around $40 at the time (cheap compared to what I had spent on my heavy, expensive, organic one at home. I decided to give it a try. After one night, I threw the expensive one in the trash, and have been using Bucky ever since. I would never look for another pillow again--my search is over, and by the way, my headaches are gone!
