I’ve always bought the two pack special from the big box store. After having a baby and desperate for a solid night sleep, I opted to buy the ghost pillow. I still don’t get enough hours but the sleep is restful and refreshing. I won’t buy a cheaply made pillow again.
I use the ghost pillow in front of a regular pillow to rest my back against while reading, on the web, etc. It has a really great sink-in feeling at the moment you lay back on it. I love this and really feel the ghost pillow is new and innovative.
I normally use down pillows. I got two foam pillows with my bed and I'm giving them a try. I love down pillows, but they have to be fluffed every day to get a consistent result. The foam pillow is easier to use and holds its shape. I sometimes read in bed and stack pillows to prop myself up. So, even though I'm using the Ghost Pillow, I still have the down pillows for other purposes.
