Are Hungarian Down Pillows Worth the Investment?

Ask a Question

I was looking at the Hungarian 100% down pillows in John Lewis yesterday. At £90 each they’re quite expensive but I’m tempted and the firm ones have mixed reviews.

Do you own these pillows? Are they long lasting please?

Pjran that’s what I meant protectors.. 😂 mind you I never paid £90 or ever would pay that for just a single pillow.

We have memory foam ones from Amazon, which provides good support - and a bargain at a tenner each (got them half price)

I have down pillows and a goose feather duvet, both of which are covered with thick cotton before the pillow case or duvet cover goes on.

EmmaWright762 Do you have to plump up your pillow please? I gave up with my feather duvet because I found it hard work shaking a king size one daily.

Pjran I plump up my pillows, it's very therapeutic for me especially if I'm annoyed with my pain. My husband does the duvet for me though as I don't have the strength. 🛌

I couldn't tell you what kind of pillows we have. I'm assuming that they are feather but we've had them for so long I can't remember. Wouldn't pay £90 for a one pillow.

MrsCraig the down pillows are expensive but we spend a third of our lives in bed so worth the expense.

Pjran I would rather spend more on a mattress than a pillow. Husband sleeps with 2 pillows and I can't afford £270 for 3 pillows that probably need replaced every few years. £90 for 3 pillows maybe but there are some things that are just too expensive, even when it's worth spending extra on it.
