Bed Pillows

[Josah]

^ anong sizes meron? super mahal ba yan?

pang queen , standard size ba yun. I'm not sure about the price parang 2k each, give kasi sa amin ni bigboy yun from uratex, kaya di ko alam tehe  .
dito sa room namin sleepcare lang ang gamit ko, bought it from dutyfree yun 5+ 2 promo nila.

[$ale... seeker!]

^ really? uratex pillows for whopping P2K each? 

[beausoleil]

^ yep yelp, yun ang gamit sa rooms ng mga kids ko. sobrang lambot. pero di ko lang sure kung worth it kasi di naman sila masyado natutulog sa rooms nila kaya di masyado nagagamit, gusto nila tumabi sa amin dito sa masters bedroom.

thanks you sis for the feedback. i wanna buy sana for my mom and dad, sabi kasi nila pwede yun to prevent snoring saka mga stiff neck etc., saka originally created by NASA for the astronauts to eliminate discomfort during extended space travel. hehe 

kaya siya mahal kasi not an ordinary pillow naman kasi..
meron din naman medium pillow for 1,499.75
yung large ata yung 1,999.75 pesos..

[$ale... seeker!]

kung ganon din lang kamahal, will definitely go for tempur / sleepcare...

grabe ang mamahal naman ng pillows na yan

[Mai]

Hello!
Is it better to machine wash the pillows or dry-clean lang?
I remember everytime me nasukahan na pillow yung anak ko, the lavandera will wash and hang it, then ilang araw na nakasabit di pa rin matuyo tuyo, and if it does, luray luray na itsura nya hindi na sya rectangle hehe 
Kaya binibigay ko na lang sa maids, anyway di naman mamahalin pillows namin. 

[Josah]

^Machine wash lang sis, pag dinala mo naman sa laundry yan isasalang din nila sa washer pag sinabi nila dry clean. kasi yun fillings nya matutunaw pag ginamitan ng solvent ng pang dry clean.
May mga pillow naman kasi na kahit isalang mo sa washer di naman nasisira ang form, depende siguro sa fillings. dapat i spin dry and just lay it flat pag patutuyuin.

^i read in martha stewart's website (i think) when washing pillows or duvets or comforter throw in an old tennis ball para it will even out the filling of the pillow kase minsan di ba nagbubuo buo. though i saw also in one website may nabibili talagang laundry item for that purpose. again, i forgot what it is. maybe someone here can share.

Dryer balls ang tawag nila dun. yung common is color blue na ball na tusok tusok. parang porcupine :p. Sabi ng iba, same lang din ang ginagawa ng tennis balls so no need to buy these kasi mas mahal daw (almost P500--converted price kasi ang 2 balls).

help mga sis!

I need to have new pillows. I can't sleep hangga't di elevated ang ulo ko. Kailangan ko nang mga 3 pillows before ako maging comfortable. siguro kasi luma na yung mga unan ko. Brand ng unan ko eh Akemi.

I checked Debenhams pero parang di naman ganun kaumbok yung unan. Yung gusto ko yung parang pang hotel. wag naman sana pang hotel din ang price.

Thanks sa makakatulong!

[clueless]

^ na-try mo na yung sleepcare sis?

that's what my husband uses and for me maumbok siya.

[jarjarbinks]

^thanks for prompt reply.

No haven't tried sleepcare yet. I saw sleepcare sa Shangri-la. Mga how much ba range ng pillows nila? Kagabi, I can't help it but to pile 3 pillows.

[aquacharly]

^ yeah, I agree with CLUELESS ---  the pillows at Sleepcare are maumbok, and so far per our experience, last longer.

They have a variety, ranging from P1800-P3thou (they once had P4thou pillows -- no, hindi ko papatulan mga ganyan.  )
They even have these pillows that are super firm (firm,  para nang fondant cake  ) -- stuffed with herbs (non-allergenic) but small (20x26 lang ata).  Perhaps you can put 1 as your base pillow. 
Unless, you really love big pillows like me. 

The Sleepcare staff at Shangrila Mall are friendly.   
You can right there "test drive" the pillows.    LOL, I do that.  Bakit ba ha?!  LOL, again. (JABINKZ, they have this elevated space where you can sit down then  lie back to test the pillows under your head.  It is near the herbal pillows' shelving).   

JABINKZ!    you preggy?  If yes, hence the need for pillows and inclination --  best you sleep on a LazyBoy or recliner in the meantime.
Or get those inclined big wedges  oldies use in bed to watch tv.  My mom got hers from the tv channel daw.

Now, if you need elevation in bed coz like me, I read or watch tv until I doze off --  share ko lang what my ortho warned me about -- to make sure that when you do doze off -- you do not slide the tops of your shoulders off the pillows.  Otherwise, when you hit your 40s -- you will have slip discs in your neck. 

[jarjarbinks]

Aqua..... am not preggy. I don't have a bf nga eh.

Sad to say but I can't sleep if my head/neck is not elevated. My parents can sleep with just one pillow and we have the same brand lang naman --- Akemi. I will go to sleepcare later cause para na akong lumulutang sa antok. hehe

thanks sis aquacharly for answering my q.

happy weekend!

[aquacharly]

ooops!  Sorry, JABINKZ! --  got  personalities of friends here mixed up.  I thought you were newly-wed. 

When I was single,  I would sleep with 10 pillows, no kidding.  Nahiya lang ako to bring all those pillows later on to bed with my new husband.

Hope you find some to meet your standards at Sleepcare.   

[jarjarbinks]

^oks lang sis aqua. I bought na pillows from sleepcare. Should I say nag-hoard ako ng pillows? hahaha!

they have a promo na buy 4 free 2 pillow for 2.6k --- (synthetic)
I also bought aromatherapy pillow for 900 plus (I bought lavender scent) --- mas firm ito
yung down pillows nila nasa 8k

[beausoleil]

^sa 2.6k ba sis, 6 na yung pillows included? TIA!

[pinkyb]

meron din sa sleepcare P1840 antibac na pillows buy 4 take 2 din. pero mabilis ata maubos. 

[meg1104]

^ I just bought that as gifts to our parents.
My cousin loves it so much kasi.
So, we'll try it pa lang now.
Uratex is on sale for that pillows til end-December (I think)

Other than these, our pillows are all from Sleepcare only.
