Japanese Buckwheat Husk Pillow

Do you guys remember the infomercial back in the day with the Sobacowa pillow or whatever? Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these, and if so, how was it?

If you don't have a buckwheat pillow, what do you use? I've been thinking about getting a temper pedic pillow for a long time. Are the better ones worth 80 bucks?

These things were [censored] amazing. They are kind of firm, but they hold your head and neck in a perfect position.

i had a sobacowa and really liked it. like grandma said it was firm but felt good.

that said i now own a temperpedic and it also kicks ass. if your head sweats at night go with the sobacowa. but if u like a soft, warm but firm pillow go temperpedic.

I use a Sobokawa and I will never go back to anything else.

I screwed up my neck about 2 years ago, mainly caused by bad sleeping posture. I got this pillow and haven't had a problem since. It was only $40 at Bed Bath and Beyond.
