I purchased 2 My Pillows....We were so disappointed....They feel like they are filled with shredded carpet padding....They are so lumpy....My husband was so excited when I first brought them home...And the first night he said how awesome it was....The 2nd night he woke up with a neckache and headache....My husband and I both sleep on our side with a pillow between the legs...That is where My Pillow goes! 😃I may try the bamboo one next. Thanks for your review!
If you haven’t bought it yet, I must tell you I had it for a month but we had bed bugs and had to get rid of it. :( I will tell you it was so comfortable and i would sink into it even though I was only 13. I am hoping to get it again
Thanks for these reviews. Keep doing them. When my husband and I first saw the My pillow, my husband said, "I bet the sleep foundation was created by the maker". So, we looked it up, and yes, the creator started the sleep foundation. For that, we felt it was deceptive.
Its not. Get the purple harmony pillow. you will not regret it. You can get it online by searching up purple harmony pillow on Google or safari. Then if you find a link to the Purple website you can buy it. The only thing is that its a bit expensive.
I learned quite a bit about pillows in the past few years. I finally broke down & got a Tempur Pedic pillow - the one that's shaped like a regular pillow with solid memory foam inside. Pricey, but haven't had neck pain since.
@@texastexas3982 It's been a few years since we got our. I got a light and my spouse got a firm. My spouse is a firm pillow user, but we ended up fighting for the light one. I flattened the section that my head will be on before use.
Love my bamboo pillow... my GF has a My Pillow and I wanted to buy one...but she told me my son was going to get me one for Christmas... well I guess they were sold out so he bought the bamboo pillow... I love that pillow... better than my pillow hands down... its like my favorite part of going to be is to lay my head down.. my head sleeps hot...i haven't had to flip my pillow during my night... if you like your head really flat... go with my pillow...if you like a little higher...go with the bamboo... I use to sleep with two pillows... the bamboo is slightly lower...but I love it...
I bought the Miracle Bamboo pillow at Menards two years ago. It still does not go flat. By far the best pillow I’ve ever purchased. I’ve read too many bad things about the my pillow. And, I’m so sick and tired of seeing those commercials, I cannot turn down the volume fast enough.
We have the miracle bamboo pillows, bought them over a year ago and they’re still amazing! Although everyone will have their own opinions. Initially out of the box/bag they do seem firm as your demonstration shows, but they do give and “break in” fairly quickly. We would not hesitate to purchase Miracle Bamboo pillows again.
I’ve had mine for a while, it’s still almost as firm but it lost some thickness. So I took a thin medium firm regular pillow and jammed it in the case with the bamboo and it is perfect
I've tried the bamboo pillow, it's a hard pillow, and flat ¡ I bought the my pillow from Walmart , I love it ! I'm a side sleeper, after using it for awhile it started to go flat, I just fluffed it up , I have had mine for 4 years now ! It is expensive, but it beats having to buy a cheap pillow every year ! 😇
I’ve had both of these. The mypillow is the clear winner for me personally. Best pillow I’ve had. I have the premium mypillow in medium firmness and it has lasted the test of time. The bamboo pillow was too big and not comfy for me
I got the bamboo pillow from Costco. Love it now but a few things I know using it over a year. It starts stiff then gets softer. After it was to flat I would wash it and dry it in dryer on low heat then air and it was back to being good. When you wash it, do it on a light water cycle with comforter. That way it doesn't get to heavy from the water and will not stop your washer because it will not balance with the water all in it. I wash mine with fabric softener and Downey freshener and no chemical smell.
I've had a miracle bamboo pillow for about 2 years now. I'm a big guy with a big noggin and i love how it feels. I know it isn't any consolation to those who find it too firm, but mine is much softer now than it was before. My biggest complaint was the SMELL! I had to leave it outside or in an unused room for about a week before I could stand it. I thought about returning it many times during that week, especially when i got home from work and could smell the odor in my house. But I'm glad i stuck through it.
That bamboo case does not like to be washed too many times. My Queen has shrunk down to a standard size ugh, and it has all sorts of lint and fibers stuck to it. The biggest flaw is that it is not a cooling pillow cover. So, I’m shopping for a cooling queen size pillow cover that doesn’t cost as much as a whole freaking pillow! Nice review.
Pillows are definitely dependent on the person when it comes to these types. I've been using the bamboo one for over a year now and after using a new pillow every year for the last 10 I'm sticking with it. I'm a side sleeper who likes a firm pillow. I found that it conforms into my shoulder and supports my head/neck. The only thing I dont like about it is that I have to fluff it out every few days. That's a small price to pay for a good nite's rest.
I've had 2 bamboo pillows for over a year now. This review is accurate, but I really like how comfortable it is for such a tall and firm pillow. I guess it's because I have a large torso, so my head lays on the pillow in tandem with my back on the matress.
I've had the bamboo pillow for several years and I like it. I like it even more cause my wife also uses one and it seems to help tone down her awful snoring that sounds like a lawn mower. It takes some getting used to though.
My favorite pillow (I’ve tried so many) is the Casper pillow (the mattress company), which is also sold at Target. I love it and I’m a stomach/side sleeper.
I, like you, am a side sleeper and like a soft and thin pillow. I have 3 soft pillows and I kind of play around with them because I'm a tosser and turner. One always to lean on or to support one of my arms because I have RA and sometimes supporting the painful limbs helps. You just can't find thin, soft pillows in the stores around here so I always snag my husband's used pillows and get him some fresh medium soft ones. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do!
I frankly like the firmness of the bamboo pillow. I have been sleeping on it for maybe six months and it works for me. I do not like the idea that I had to purchase new pillows regularly but this won't happen with the bamboo one. I have seen the ads for My Pillow and in the store and for me they seemed to be priced way too high. I do not know the pricing for the bamboo pillows because they were a gift. They are heavy but I am well pleased.
because of your pillow reviews I skipped them all and bought a temperpedic, I love it, it's both firm and soft at the same time. I am a side sleeper. Although I have broad shoulders so I had to put and old flat pillow underneath to get the height I wanted, which isn't a big deal because I always have had two pillows.
thank you for the chuckles and a review where i can see what the product actually looks like and how it works in real life. i couldn't hit the subscriber button fast enough to see all of you reviews!
Thanks for great comparison. I was gonna buy one of these but wasn't sure which was better. I need a soft, moldable pillow. Just wondering: what pillow do you use?
Thank you for your review. I was going to buy My Pillow but not sure now. What pillow do you recommend? I've been having neck issues with a number of pillows I've bought from target, marshalls, walmart. looking for something quality that doesnt make my neck and back hurt daily. What do you recommend? and with a link?
I use the MBP and I absolutely love it. I've been using the same pillow for a fee years and I'm about to buy another one. I have a really bad back and neck and can't sleep without my MBP.
I used the bamboo pillow for a while, but it gave me horrible, horrible neck pains. Switching to the My Pillow worked much better for me personally. I have to fluff it every night though because it gets flat. I think it being flat would make you like it more. Also, make sure to put a pillow case over it to lower the bumpiness. If you get neck pains from your pillow being too hard, I suggest trying the My Pillow. If you like hard pillows, try the Bamboo Pillow.
I have the Miracle Bamboo pillow, and it really is the best pillow I've ever used. I absitely love it. Usually I have to use two pillows, but now I only use the one now.
It is my understanding that once you get your pillow and it has fully gotten it’s shape you can unzip the inner sleeve and take out some of the memory foam. Thus making it less firm and tailored to your personal comfort.
Just recently discovered your channel. Love your reviews. I especially liked the part about turning the bamboo pillow on it's side for softer sleeping... made me laugh! And, I agree with you, can't fathom sleeping on a pillow turned up like that. Now I'm off to find your review on the Miracle Bamboo Cushion.
I bought a copy of the bamboo pillow. They have pretty much the same pictures, but a different name, but it only costs 20 bucks for the queen size and they also had a king size. I bought 2 of each size, and gotta say I love these pillows. I got mine on a website called “Pulse TV” Just thought some of your viewers might appreciate an alternative. Thanks for all you do for us!
Some motels have something similar to My Pillows, but they're the smaller square ones--you know, each bed comes with 8 pillows, half of which fall on the floor by morning. BUT--the smaller size and using a couple side-by-side, the My Pillow was quite comfortable.
I'm so old fashioned. I still like down and how I can mold it to whatever I want. Yes I do throw it in the washer from time to time. Was gifted a memory foam 'cooling' pillow. NOT! Went back to down.
My Pillow is the best pillow I’ve EVER used. My guy and I got the firm and I never wake up to neck pain anymore. We travel with them too. We don’t stay anywhere without them.
I like big memory foam pillows. I rotate between a Tempurpedic Cloud and the Bamboo. I’m a side sleeper with more broad shoulders, so the thicker memory foam pillows work wonders
It's funny that you review these two side by side. I too have both of these (my My Pillow is the "Medium" version). I'm on an eternal search for the "perfect" pillow for me. This is complicated by the fact that I have a ruptured disk in my neck, so I need pretty perfect support and alignment while I sleep. I had similar thoughts on both of these...the My Pillow being too "soft" and I often would have my head all the way through the pillow onto the mattress after a while. The Miracle Bamboo was actually too hard, dense, and lumpy. Ultimately, I had the thought to pull the filling out of both and make two "hybrid" pillows...which I ended up doing. Both my husband and I were pretty happy for quite a while. We've since replaced them, but it was a successful experiment!
I bought a Miracle Bamboo Pillow and took it with me on a 7 month deployment. I absolutely loved it. I’m a side sleeper, I rarely had to flip it, best pillow I’ve ever bought.
I have a miracle bamboo pillow, and it is super lumpy, when I remove the outer cover you can see the different colors of foam right through the inner liner. Yours looked a lot nicer than the one I got.
I just bought a miricles pillow and it’s great. Yea when you first get it, it is a little high up. But when you flip it around and fold it, it does in fact get softer and it does adjust to your head. I also love love love the smell of it and it’s really comfy. I don’t know anything about mypillow but I know that the bamboo pillow has been great and very comfy for me, I like the way it can form and it doesn’t get flat, all you have to to is fluff it before sleep! It’s great. This guy didn’t really give it enough time for a real review, throw him a feather pillow cuz that’s what it seems he wants :)
I must be the exception to the rule. I have the Bamboo pillow. It does not ever make me hot. It is firm, but has softened some over time but is still supportive. I like the support to my neck since I am a side sleeper. I've had it for at least 6 months and am still liking it a lot. It hasn't lost it's shape like lots do! Heard many bad reviews for my pillow.
I actually use it nightly to sit up in bed while on my laptop because it's so thick. I just don't like sleeping on it. It's by no means a bad pillow, just not for me.
The Bamboo Pillow has a zipper so you can take out as much of the filling as you like to make it as soft or firm as you want it to be. It can also be molded to your deserved shape by kneading and rolling to create your preferred head shape indent.
Neither the guy in the video nor many of the commentators here apparently read the directions that, if they want a softer pillow, simply remove some of the filling. How they missed that, I'll never know.
Yeh they also do not buy the proper size pillows. Idk people need to research more. The pillows aren't like ground breaking...but definitely are not as bad as people say
The Miracle Bamboo pillow I have has the bamboo cover with a zipper, but the actual pillow inside the cover with the pillow logo on it has no zipper to access the stuffing. Either they changed their pillow or you are confused. Please recheck your pillow and update maybe with a link to a photo of a zippered pillow inside the zippered cover with the Miracle Bamboo logo on it.
I like the my pillow. Mine is not lumpy at all. I actually sleep with 2 of them. I have acid reflux and they have really helped to keep my head elevated at night. I'm going to try the bamboo. Good video.
Hi I want to train myself to sleep on my back. What is the best pillow for back sleepers??? I ordered a comfy moon shaped wedge for under my knees. What is the best pillow for sude sleepers??? What do you think of buckwheat pillow???? Thank you.
Wish i would have seen this review before me and my hubby bought our bamboo pillows about a year or 2 ago. The only thing they have going for them is durability. But they feel like a rock almost and needs a good beating to make it comfy ish
Did you try actually sleeping on it through the night? I have an older Bamboo pillow, no removable outer case like this one, and I thought the Bamboo pillow was too firm at first, but after an hour you kind of sink slowly into it. I also thought it was too thick at first, but after only a week or so it got more easy to conform to me. Also, as I recall the main selling point was the bamboo case which is supposed to repel odors/microorganisms to give you a continuously clean pillow. I like a good goose down pillow as well, but they loose their form after a few months. My Bamboo pillow is still great in my opinion, had it for a few years now.
I was a side sleeper. The best pillow I ever used as a side sleeper was an original Sobakowa pillow. I now sleep in a recliner and use a homemade neck pillow.
I have 2 miracle bamboo pillows. They work great. They do take some time to break in (over a week) but with time it gets lower and more comfortable. If it gets to flat you just fluff it up again.
I must be a rare gem since everyone in the comments prefers sleeping on a thin pillow. That's really bad for neck and head support. I prefer firm and thick pillows, b/c over time pillows will start to thin out and flatten so I sleep on 2. But anyone one of those pillows would work for me. But as of now I'm content with what I sleep on. Still fun to see the comparison. 😊👍
I bought a Bamboo pillow. I didn't like it and thought it didn't really compress for my head like a true memory foam pillow. Love your reviews. Brilliant.
Blue Moon I bought a bamboo pillow. It was way to high, i cut it open and took a lot of stuffing out and put the extra in my dogs bed. She's a old greyhound and she loves her bed now. The pillow is still to big. I'll have to do it again.
I like the my pillow 1. You need to fluff the my pillow for 20 minutes before use. Such a man. Read directions . 😄 2. Many of my friends like a firmer pillow. Our age maybe? Your regular pillow is so thin, I could never sleep on it. 3. I'm a side sleeper. My pillow does adjust to my head and neck, although I have to get it set up a little before sleep. 4. On the days that I choose to make my bed, it fluffs back up easily to look good on the bed. 4. It IS lumpy. That's my only complaint. Most times I don't notice it after I fall asleep. I don't wake up, unless it's my usual middle of the night bathroom visit. Thanks for the review. Another point of view.
I like u your funny my husband just passed away and he was funny so thank you for making me laugh at such a sad time My husband and I never got them either one because one they are expensive and are exactly what ur saying
Hello, and I'm very sorry to hear about your husband! I'm glad I could bring a smile to you. Comments like yours is why I put up with the trolls and negativity, and keep doing this.
Freakin' Reviews ur a cool guy my husband would have liked u I miss him a lot words can't describe but just funny like he was we don't want to grow up just have fun and for bullies I know how to deal with them I get them too if u say nothing never comment back if u feed into it that's there drug so if u don't give them the drug they move on and find it somewhere else I have been bullied my hole life so I taught myself in high school how to deal with them Funny story I was being bullied by the guy and I I wanted to try an experiment so what I did for two weeks was I was so nice to the sky even though he was pulling me when I was snacktime I asked if you wanted a snack if you have money I would offer money for him I mean I was just like super super nice to them and the kid just kind of gave up I can't be mean to somebody that's being too nice to me so then he left me alone another bully. I had in high school was like pulling me for like two years and I had to do is find him and I scared the crap out of him and he never bothered me again I just wish I knew that that's what that kid needed because I would've fought him years before put him in his place course fighting isn't the right thing to do but that's with this particular guy needed he needed to be scared because he wasn't expecting it and he never bothered me again Well thank you very much for your time I really appreciate it I have subscribed to your channel I think you're cool guy and I hope that possibly we could be friends I'm on Facebook if you are on their minds just JC journey I'm 36 and I'm transgender so I am a female that's going to start transitioning I just wanted to be honest with you so let's just say I'm kind of jealous you have muscles I want so I'm gonna start going to the gym and working out so I can get muscles like you got LOL
Im very sorry for your loss. Your right, one person can joke around and make you you ll feel a bit better. My friend just lost her husband very suddenly (heart attack) shes been hanging on but his birthday just passed. The only thing i can think to say is lean on your faith,family and friends. Most people dont understand that one person might make your day just by being there. Good luck with your transition aswell. Im sure thats hard to do. I hope you have people in your life that love and accept you for who you are.
Currently I have Miracle Bamboo pillow, had same problem⚠️ It was way to thick.. Was going to custom fix, then I noticed zipper on interior pillow. Just unzipped and removed excessive memory foam, mix of vary small to 1/2 pieces. Zipping it back closed, then thickness was adjusted thickness to my preference👍 Only took a few minutes😎 Now I sleep great!!
I have a premium goose down, king sized pillow. If I want it to be a bit thicker I just give it a shake and fold over the edge. I can't sleep on a big fat pillow. My second favorite pillow is a rather thin Hello Kitty pillow from Walmart. My cat usually steals that one though. Thanks for the reviews, I have been curious about the bamboo pillow. You've satisfied my curiosity and save me money. I instinctually knew the My Pillow was an overpriced crap pillow, the infomercials they made were too desperate to be taken seriously.
I've been thinking about carefully cutting along the seam of my My Pillow and remove a bit of the filler and sew it back up and see how it feels. While I'm at it, I've thought about maybe finding a way to chop the filler into slightly smaller pieces. May sound like a lot of steps one shouldn't have to take but I might consider doing it for the sake of customizing it to something I'll get my money's worth out of. I've been finding myself using it for 3 or 4 days, then grabbing another pillow, them going back and forth between 4 different pillows I've purchased. I keep going back to My Pillow but always tell myself, "if only the foam pieces were smaller and if only there was slightly less filler. I do think if I can find a way to chop the filler into slightly smaller pieces, at the same time it will probably make it not so lofty.
I just got the Miracle Bamboo Pillow and it’s pretty full, but you can unzip it and take excess stuffing out until it’s as thick or thin as you like. Was this not possible 3 years ago?
I've always been a thin pillow person, but got a miracle bamboo when I had shoulder issues. Never had a better sleep in my life. This is the best pillow I've ever used. Never going back.
It is my go-to pillow when I sit up in bed. I actually really like how it feels for that. I haven't converted for sleep, but I look for it when I need to prop myself up.
Note: bamboo pillow COVER is 95% foam, my dryer fire cautions say do not dry foam containing articles, I had to let the cover dry hanging on my bicycle handle bars.
Today I bought a room essential shredded foam pillows from target. I felt the bamboo pillow and the my pillow too. They both were huge, bulky and heavy. So the one I purchased is lumpy but overly lumpy, I hope it works, luckily it cost me about fourteen dollars.
My husband bought us the miracle bamboo pillow at Costco with the special cover that is supposed to stay cool. I like the pillow but the over priced cool cover still gets warm.
Have the bambo pillow. Strange, the full size pillow is fine, well, better than the king. The king size pillow feels like a piece of concrete! Also, if the bedroom is cold, the pillow gets a LOT harder. In all cases, as mentioned, your head is not heavy enough to compress the pillow, especially on the king size. Still prefer a quality down pillow. Haven't found a good non-feather pillow.
I purchased 2 My Pillows....We were so disappointed....They feel like they are filled with shredded carpet padding....They are so lumpy....My husband was so excited when I first brought them home...And the first night he said how awesome it was....The 2nd night he woke up with a neckache and headache....My husband and I both sleep on our side with a pillow between the legs...That is where My Pillow goes! 😃I may try the bamboo one next.

My wife uses it and doesn't mind the lumpiness. At least I found a use for mine, and apparently you did, too! Thanks for the comment.
If you haven’t bought it yet, I must tell you I had it for a month but we had bed bugs and had to get rid of it. :(
I will tell you it was so comfortable and i would sink into it even though I was only 13.
I am hoping to get it again
Love From Above you are supposed to put them in the dryer for a few minutes first!
Love From Above if you put a thicker cover on it then the lumps would not be a problem.
Love From Above Is the pillow between the legs for safety.?
I bought the Bamboo pillow today. Found it at TJMaxx. I am laying in it as I type! Best pillow ever!!!! 👍🏼
Same. I'm typing on it right now too! Ima get the purple pillow soon
Thanks for these reviews. Keep doing them. When my husband and I first saw the My pillow, my husband said, "I bet the sleep foundation was created by the maker". So, we looked it up, and yes, the creator started the sleep foundation. For that, we felt it was deceptive.
Thank you for explaining which parts have the bamboo! I remember being so confused about the bamboo cushion since it was just memory foam lol
Why is it soooo hard to find a great pillow?🤔
Its not. Get the purple harmony pillow. you will not regret it. You can get it online by searching up purple harmony pillow on Google or safari. Then if you find a link to the Purple website you can buy it. The only thing is that its a bit expensive.
IKR! 😂
I already find it 😅
I learned quite a bit about pillows in the past few years. I finally broke down & got a Tempur Pedic pillow - the one that's shaped like a regular pillow with solid memory foam inside. Pricey, but haven't had neck pain since.
i love how you can customize the miracle bamboo ones and take stuffing out or add it as needed!
I got a crick in my neck just watching this.
Miracle Bamboo Pillow gets really comfortable after you have used it for a week or so, and let it get broken in a bit.
I've used a My Pillow for about a year and love it. I always woke up with headaches nearly every day before getting a My Pillow.
I also love my My Pillow.

Side sleeper here, too. I could never sleep on something that thick. Thin pillow for me all the way! Great job!
I have a Miracle bamboo pillow and it really needs about 1/3 less filling. I've found that sin- pillows are the most comfortable to sleep on.

Thanks for the comment and the sub Sarah!
Thanks for great comparison. I was gonna buy one of these but wasn't sure which was better. I need a soft, moldable pillow. Just wondering: what pillow do you use?
Thank you for your review. I was going to buy My Pillow but not sure now. What pillow do you recommend? I've been having neck issues with a number of pillows I've bought from target, marshalls, walmart. looking for something quality that doesnt make my neck and back hurt daily. What do you recommend? and with a link?
I use the MBP and I absolutely love it. I've been using the same pillow for a fee years and I'm about to buy another one. I have a really bad back and neck and can't sleep without my MBP.
I sleep slighty sitting upward so i would probably like the bamboo one. I wouldn't be able to breathe if I wasn't at an upward angle
Alexis Kis Same. I use a couple pillows to raise my head. I have sinus problems.
Oh my gosh I’ve never laughed so hard watching you lay on the bamboo pillow up on its side 😂
I used the bamboo pillow for a while, but it gave me horrible, horrible neck pains. Switching to the My Pillow worked much better for me personally. I have to fluff it every night though because it gets flat. I think it being flat would make you like it more. Also, make sure to put a pillow case over it to lower the bumpiness.
If you get neck pains from your pillow being too hard, I suggest trying the My Pillow.
If you like hard pillows, try the Bamboo Pillow.
I have the Miracle Bamboo pillow, and it really is the best pillow I've ever used. I absitely love it. Usually I have to use two pillows, but now I only use the one now.
This would be perfect for my husband. He's been looking for an extremely hard pillow. Thanks for the review!
It is my understanding that once you get your pillow and it has fully gotten it’s shape you can unzip the inner sleeve and take out some of the memory foam. Thus making it less firm and tailored to your personal comfort.
Just recently discovered your channel. Love your reviews. I especially liked the part about turning the bamboo pillow on it's side for softer sleeping... made me laugh! And, I agree with you, can't fathom sleeping on a pillow turned up like that.
Now I'm off to find your review on the Miracle Bamboo Cushion.
I'm flattered that you enjoy my channel! Ironically, I'm sitting on the Miracle Bamboo Cushion a I type this!
Have had My Pillow for over a year and love, LOVE! Just ordered one for a friend.
just brought the Miracle Bamboo back in march. I been loving it so far. My Pillow I have felt and didn't care for the feel of it
I bought a copy of the bamboo pillow. They have pretty much the same pictures, but a different name, but it only costs 20 bucks for the queen size and they also had a king size. I bought 2 of each size, and gotta say I love these pillows. I got mine on a website called “Pulse TV” Just thought some of your viewers might appreciate an alternative. Thanks for all you do for us!
Some motels have something similar to My Pillows, but they're the smaller square ones--you know, each bed comes with 8 pillows, half of which fall on the floor by morning. BUT--the smaller size and using a couple side-by-side, the My Pillow was quite comfortable.
I have a bamboo pillow. I took out 1\3 of the foam and I punch it down where my head rests. It is wonderful. It molds to my head and neck.
Love the review. Thanks.
Do u have any recommendations for a thin soft pillow? I like those as well
I'm so old fashioned. I still like down and how I can mold it to whatever I want. Yes I do throw it in the washer from time to time. Was gifted a memory foam 'cooling' pillow. NOT! Went back to down.
My Pillow is the best pillow I’ve EVER used. My guy and I got the firm and I never wake up to neck pain anymore. We travel with them too. We don’t stay anywhere without them.
I like big memory foam pillows. I rotate between a Tempurpedic Cloud and the Bamboo. I’m a side sleeper with more broad shoulders, so the thicker memory foam pillows work wonders
What pillows you are sleeping on now? It seems like your pillows are really comfortable to me , too. (Thin and not high )
I baught a mypillow add on amazon and I got a bamboo classic and I’m kinda glad bc this helps my upper joints so much
I have 2 bamboo pillows and I love them. They are soft and let the air blow through. I 100% recommend them
It's funny that you review these two side by side. I too have both of these (my My Pillow is the "Medium" version). I'm on an eternal search for the "perfect" pillow for me. This is complicated by the fact that I have a ruptured disk in my neck, so I need pretty perfect support and alignment while I sleep.
I had similar thoughts on both of these...the My Pillow being too "soft" and I often would have my head all the way through the pillow onto the mattress after a while. The Miracle Bamboo was actually too hard, dense, and lumpy.
Ultimately, I had the thought to pull the filling out of both and make two "hybrid" pillows...which I ended up doing. Both my husband and I were pretty happy for quite a while. We've since replaced them, but it was a successful experiment!
I bought a Miracle Bamboo Pillow and took it with me on a 7 month deployment. I absolutely loved it. I’m a side sleeper, I rarely had to flip it, best pillow I’ve ever bought.
I have a miracle bamboo pillow, and it is super lumpy, when I remove the outer cover you can see the different colors of foam right through the inner liner. Yours looked a lot nicer than the one I got.
Bamboo fibre pillows are brilliant. They are cool in summer and warm in winter. They 'breathe' and allow air to move through the pillow.
I just bought a miricles pillow and it’s great. Yea when you first get it, it is a little high up. But when you flip it around and fold it, it does in fact get softer and it does adjust to your head. I also love love love the smell of it and it’s really comfy. I don’t know anything about mypillow but I know that the bamboo pillow has been great and very comfy for me, I like the way it can form and it doesn’t get flat, all you have to to is fluff it before sleep! It’s great. This guy didn’t really give it enough time for a real review, throw him a feather pillow cuz that’s what it seems he wants :)
I must be the exception to the rule. I have the Bamboo pillow. It does not ever make me hot. It is firm, but has softened some over time but is still supportive. I like the support to my neck since I am a side sleeper. I've had it for at least 6 months and am still liking it a lot. It hasn't lost it's shape like lots do! Heard many bad reviews for my pillow.
I actually use it nightly to sit up in bed while on my laptop because it's so thick. I just don't like sleeping on it. It's by no means a bad pillow, just not for me.
I have the bamboo and by far the best pillow I've ever had, I've had it for over about 2 years and it's so incredibly comfy
I seems to be the same as any other “bamboo “ pillow. You have to let it break in a bit and I absolutely love it!!!
The key to the Bamboo pillow is to remove some of the inner foam till it meets your needs. I removed about 10% and now it’s perfect.
I totally need that bamboo pillow! I love a tall, firm pillow and they're really hard to find
The Bamboo Pillow has a zipper so you can take out as much of the filling as you like to make it as soft or firm as you want it to be. It can also be molded to your deserved shape by kneading and rolling to create your preferred head shape indent.
Neither the guy in the video nor many of the commentators here apparently read the directions that, if they want a softer pillow, simply remove some of the filling. How they missed that, I'll never know.
Yeh they also do not buy the proper size pillows. Idk people need to research more. The pillows aren't like ground breaking...but definitely are not as bad as people say
The Miracle Bamboo pillow I have has the bamboo cover with a zipper, but the actual pillow inside the cover with the pillow logo on it has no zipper to access the stuffing. Either they changed their pillow or you are confused. Please recheck your pillow and update maybe with a link to a photo of a zippered pillow inside the zippered cover with the Miracle Bamboo logo on it.
I like the my pillow. Mine is not lumpy at all. I actually sleep with 2 of them. I have acid reflux and they have really helped to keep my head elevated at night. I'm going to try the bamboo. Good video.
Hi
I want to train myself to sleep on my back.
What is the best pillow for back sleepers???
I ordered a comfy moon shaped wedge for under my knees.
What is the best pillow for sude sleepers???
What do you think of buckwheat pillow????
Thank you.
Wish i would have seen this review before me and my hubby bought our bamboo pillows about a year or 2 ago. The only thing they have going for them is durability. But they feel like a rock almost and needs a good beating to make it comfy ish
Thank you for the fab reviews 💐.
Lol! The side sleep miracle pillow part. Thanks for the honest review.
Did you try actually sleeping on it through the night? I have an older Bamboo pillow, no removable outer case like this one, and I thought the Bamboo pillow was too firm at first, but after an hour you kind of sink slowly into it. I also thought it was too thick at first, but after only a week or so it got more easy to conform to me. Also, as I recall the main selling point was the bamboo case which is supposed to repel odors/microorganisms to give you a continuously clean pillow.
I like a good goose down pillow as well, but they loose their form after a few months. My Bamboo pillow is still great in my opinion, had it for a few years now.
Please do a video on which pillow you prefer, the Bamboo pillow or the Purple Pillow. Thank you!
I was a side sleeper. The best pillow I ever used as a side sleeper was an original Sobakowa pillow. I now sleep in a recliner and use a homemade neck pillow.
I bought the Essence of Bamboo pillow for around $10 at discount store and its extremely comfortable.
I have 2 miracle bamboo pillows. They work great. They do take some time to break in (over a week) but with time it gets lower and more comfortable. If it gets to flat you just fluff it up again.
I was considering buying the Bamboo pillow. I changed my mind now. Thanks for the review and the laughs you're funny!
"I'm gonna sleep like this?..i can't even breathe"...."this is REDICULOUS "🤣🤣🤣🤣 best video
I must be a rare gem since everyone in the comments prefers sleeping on a thin pillow. That's really bad for neck and head support. I prefer firm and thick pillows, b/c over time pillows will start to thin out and flatten so I sleep on 2. But anyone one of those pillows would work for me. But as of now I'm content with what I sleep on. Still fun to see the comparison. 😊👍
EmiQ22 I like the bamboo pillow. I used to use 2 firm side sleeper pillows. Now I only use 1 bamboo pillow
I bought a Bamboo pillow. I didn't like it and thought it didn't really compress for my head like a true memory foam pillow. Love your reviews. Brilliant.
Sounds like we had similar experiences. Thanks for the comment!
Blue Moon I bought a bamboo pillow. It was way to high, i cut it open and took a lot of stuffing out and put the extra in my dogs bed. She's a old greyhound and she loves her bed now. The pillow is still to big. I'll have to do it again.
I like the my pillow
1. You need to fluff the my pillow for 20 minutes before use. Such a man. Read directions . 😄
2. Many of my friends like a firmer pillow. Our age maybe? Your regular pillow is so thin, I could never sleep on it.
3. I'm a side sleeper. My pillow does adjust to my head and neck, although I have to get it set up a little before sleep.
4. On the days that I choose to make my bed, it fluffs back up easily to look good on the bed.
4. It IS lumpy. That's my only complaint. Most times I don't notice it after I fall asleep. I don't wake up, unless it's my usual middle of the night bathroom visit.
Thanks for the review. Another point of view.
I like u your funny my husband just passed away and he was funny so thank you for making me laugh at such a sad time
My husband and I never got them either one because one they are expensive and are exactly what ur saying
Hello, and I'm very sorry to hear about your husband! I'm glad I could bring a smile to you. Comments like yours is why I put up with the trolls and negativity, and keep doing this.
Freakin' Reviews ur a cool guy my husband would have liked u I miss him a lot words can't describe but just funny like he was we don't want to grow up just have fun and for bullies I know how to deal with them I get them too if u say nothing never comment back if u feed into it that's there drug so if u don't give them the drug they move on and find it somewhere else I have been bullied my hole life so I taught myself in high school how to deal with them
Funny story I was being bullied by the guy and I I wanted to try an experiment so what I did for two weeks was I was so nice to the sky even though he was pulling me when I was snacktime I asked if you wanted a snack if you have money I would offer money for him I mean I was just like super super nice to them and the kid just kind of gave up I can't be mean to somebody that's being too nice to me so then he left me alone another bully. I had in high school was like pulling me for like two years and I had to do is find him and I scared the crap out of him and he never bothered me again I just wish I knew that that's what that kid needed because I would've fought him years before put him in his place course fighting isn't the right thing to do but that's with this particular guy needed he needed to be scared because he wasn't expecting it and he never bothered me again
Well thank you very much for your time I really appreciate it I have subscribed to your channel I think you're cool guy and I hope that possibly we could be friends I'm on Facebook if you are on their minds just JC journey I'm 36 and I'm transgender so I am a female that's going to start transitioning I just wanted to be honest with you so let's just say I'm kind of jealous you have muscles I want so I'm gonna start going to the gym and working out so I can get muscles like you got LOL
Im very sorry for your loss. Your right, one person can joke around and make you you ll feel a bit better. My friend just lost her husband very suddenly (heart attack) shes been hanging on but his birthday just passed. The only thing i can think to say is lean on your faith,family and friends. Most people dont understand that one person might make your day just by being there.
Good luck with your transition aswell. Im sure thats hard to do. I hope you have people in your life that love and accept you for who you are.
@Joshua Denton really? I got onw at wallmart for 20$
😥💔🙏❤
I've been using the same bamboo pillow for 2-3 years. It's top 2 best pillows I've ever owned.
This just became humorous and fun to watch towards the end .. trying to figure out my pillow situation too .
I love the my pillow bc it keeps your spine perfectly alighted and maintains that all night like marketed, pretty above average pillow
Currently I have Miracle Bamboo pillow, had same problem⚠️
It was way to thick..
Was going to custom fix, then I noticed zipper on interior pillow.
Just unzipped and removed excessive memory foam, mix of vary small to 1/2 pieces.
Zipping it back closed, then thickness was adjusted thickness to my preference👍
Only took a few minutes😎
Now I sleep great!!
❤️❤️❤️The bamboo pillow. I have no issues. THE LONGER I HAVE THE PILLOW THE GREATER IT GETS. I AM HANDICAPPED AND BEDRIDDEN. I BOUGHT 4 more.
I absolutely love my bamboo pillow too !
Im trynna use something better than what i got but i don't wanna spend alotta money on something i dont even like lol
Miracle bamboo pillow is the best pillow I've ever owned. Used to have the my pillow & it was just too shifty
I have a premium goose down, king sized pillow. If I want it to be a bit thicker I just give it a shake and fold over the edge. I can't sleep on a big fat pillow. My second favorite pillow is a rather thin Hello Kitty pillow from Walmart. My cat usually steals that one though. Thanks for the reviews, I have been curious about the bamboo pillow. You've satisfied my curiosity and save me money. I instinctually knew the My Pillow was an overpriced crap pillow, the infomercials they made were too desperate to be taken seriously.
I've been thinking about carefully cutting along the seam of my My Pillow and remove a bit of the filler and sew it back up and see how it feels. While I'm at it, I've thought about maybe finding a way to chop the filler into slightly smaller pieces. May sound like a lot of steps one shouldn't have to take but I might consider doing it for the sake of customizing it to something I'll get my money's worth out of. I've been finding myself using it for 3 or 4 days, then grabbing another pillow, them going back and forth between 4 different pillows I've purchased. I keep going back to My Pillow but always tell myself, "if only the foam pieces were smaller and if only there was slightly less filler.
I do think if I can find a way to chop the filler into slightly smaller pieces, at the same time it will probably make it not so lofty.
I just got the Miracle Bamboo Pillow and it’s pretty full, but you can unzip it and take excess stuffing out until it’s as thick or thin as you like. Was this not possible 3 years ago?
have you tested the procomf travel pillow
I've always been a thin pillow person, but got a miracle bamboo when I had shoulder issues. Never had a better sleep in my life. This is the best pillow I've ever used. Never going back.
It is my go-to pillow when I sit up in bed. I actually really like how it feels for that. I haven't converted for sleep, but I look for it when I need to prop myself up.
best pillow ever. it makes it literally hard to wake up
That made me 😂😂! I think I would love the Bamboo Pillow! Thanks! ~ Cathy
Note: bamboo pillow COVER is 95% foam, my dryer fire cautions say do not dry foam containing articles, I had to let the cover dry hanging on my bicycle handle bars.
i absolutely loveeee the miracle bamboo pillow it is so comfortable a year later ...
Melissa Denney it honestly is
2¢ Chicks i just got one
You will love it best pillow ever
I LOVE my miracle pillow!!! Its the only pillow I use anymore on my bed. After time it gets better too.
Today I bought a room essential shredded foam pillows from target. I felt the bamboo pillow and the my pillow too. They both were huge, bulky and heavy. So the one I purchased is lumpy but overly lumpy, I hope it works, luckily it cost me about fourteen dollars.
My husband bought us the miracle bamboo pillow at Costco with the special cover that is supposed to stay cool. I like the pillow but the over priced cool cover still gets warm.
Have the bambo pillow. Strange, the full size pillow is fine, well, better than the king. The king size pillow feels like a piece of concrete!
Also, if the bedroom is cold, the pillow gets a LOT harder.
In all cases, as mentioned, your head is not heavy enough to compress the pillow, especially on the king size.
Still prefer a quality down pillow. Haven't found a good non-feather pillow.
