Tempurpedic pillows from Brookstone.

I remember someone else had mentioned that they had a $100 Tempurpedic pillow from Brookstone that didn't seem to conform as well as it used to. That was my problem with one I had bought about 1-1/2 years ago from them. I just took it in, and was "testing" the demo they had out. Replacement was no problem, no questions from them at all.

They did mention that heat does have a negative effect on the Tempurpedics......and, I had also used mine in my car, as a back pillow, quite a bit, and left it in the heat. So, I won't be doing that anymore.

Anyway, my point is that Brookstone in Grapevine, TX had no problems/questions with my exchanging, without a receipt.

YMMV

Has anyone tried one of these memory foam pillows on a waterbed?

Currently my cat and I share a buckwheat cheapo from what is now BigLots (cost about $7 I think).

Just checked out Jack's 99 cent store in NYC across from Penn Station. They have tempupedic pillows for really cheap.
I think the standard size was 39.99. I am pretty sure these are the real thing. They felt heavy and well constructed.


Update. 19.99 for twin 29.99 for queen 39.99 king

Anyone buy one yet?

 

[DRDEATH]

I hear these pillows also help your golf swing.🙂

I don't know about the mattress but the topper is usually found on @bay. Mark's 1/2 price bedding and another store. If you already have a decent mattress the topper is all you'll need. I think another store's name is Memory Foam Superstore. They also have a 4" thick model.

I am not sure if somebody covered this yet,..but in the HSN.com's Dr. Wong (or something like that) "HO FUN" pillow,...in Chinese (Cantonese) that translates to GOOD SLEEP, hahaah, just wondering if that was TRUE?

can somebody plese link a good website where they found these pillows for a great price?

 

[clarkmo]

They were on clearance at hsn. Maybe they still are plus there is a coupon floating around.

Bump!
I'm trying out an imation from Sams Wholesale Club.
It's OK but I think I would like it in a standard shape like the Carpenter pillow.
😉

 

[geckojohn]

I am seriously considering a Smart Foam Pillow right now. Does anyone have any recommendations of a reputable seller from Ebay? I want to get a pillow that is more on the firm side and heavy also... Thanks for your help 🙂

 

[clarkmo]

MArks 1/2 price bedding, Memory foam superstore. Plus general auctions. Towards the beginning of this thread are some ebay guidelines if you're gonna purchase via auction.

 

[GregANDTCH]

Well, I went ahead and ordered one from MemoryFoam.net, just hope it turns out good.
😉

 

[geckojohn]

I checked out the Smart Memory pillow at Costco yesterday. It costs about $35 and seems like really good quality. It's really heavy and dense for the price. I will probably purchase it today.... any last suggestions or tips before I buy?

Thanks

 

[geckojohn]

Anyone else have any thoughts on Smart Foam pillows before I make the plunge and buy one from Costco? I am also getting a mattress, anyone know of a cheap place to get a mattress?

 

[cowlemon]

so where is the cheapest place to get a tempur pedic 4" pillow?

 

[Hummercash]

ok, i went to Jack's 99 cent store yesterday. on the second floor, they have a bunch of 'tempur pillows'... unfortunately i don't think they are the real thing 🙁

i could be wrong, but i decided not to buy one. i'll prolly buy one from brookstone so i can get the 20 year replacement plan 🙂

[slaman]

I can't believe this thread is still at the top! Yay for pillows!

 

[drewdogg808]

okay...which one would you guys go with, the novafoam from costco, or the viscoflex one from marks 1/2? i had another restless night trying to sleep....

 

[Furor]

Has anyone tried the topper/mattress yet? I'm thinking of getting this or this to go over my spring mattress, but I wanted some opinions first. Also, does anyone know if BB&B has the mattresses? I want to get an example of what it's going to feel like before I buy one of these

 

[Twerpzilla]

Furor, I am expecting delivery of the 4" foam topper in Queen size from "The Memoryfoam Super Store" today. I will let you know if it look OK when it gets here. In a few days, i will let you know just how comfy it is. 🙂

 

[Furor]

Twerpzilla, Great..just what I was hoping for..i'll be waiting!
