My pillow sheets7/18/2023 ![]() We tested the MyPillow Giza Elegance-the company’s self-proclaimed most popular option-in the “yellow” or least firm option, as our testers have smaller frames. Eventually, one writer found one after digging through the company’s Instagram, but it was still difficult, as the coupon was buried in a caption. We’ve perused the site for a promo code multiple times and always came up empty-handed. The Giza Elegance is advertised as discounted to as low as $34.98-but only if you use a promo code that the website alludes to, but doesn’t immediately provide. The full price is not far off from other shredded-foam pillows we’ve tested but at times the company offers steep promotions, which can bring the price of a Classic MyPillow to a fraction of the cost-as low as $19.98. The Giza Elegance rings up at $89.98 for a queen and $98.98 for a king in the blue, or “most firm” version. ![]() The Classic is the cheaper of the two, coming in at $69.98 for a standard size pillow, and $89.98 for king. (We’re not sure what to suggest if that’s what you’d hoped to do.) How much does MyPillow cost? Admittedly, this could require guesswork and is easier if you purchase the Classic Pillow, which has defined firmness levels, as opposed to the Giza Elegance pillow, which doesn’t provide such a scale. The company suggests customers who are switching from sleeping on a down or feather pillow decrease their suggested fill firmness by one level, as down is generally softer than foam. The Giza Elegance pillow has the same fill in a 100% cotton case, and four firmness levels that are color-coded to indicate the amount of filling (the company doesn’t give firmness labels for these, instead relying on color alone). The Classic pillow comes in two firmnesses: “medium” and “firm.” The website doesn’t specify what fabric is used on the Classic version. To determine which is best for you, the company suggests using its chart system that recommends firmness based on a small chart with two columns labeled to “men” and “women,” and rows corresponding to T-shirt size (yes, really). Rather than offering the consumer the option to physically add or remove filling (like our best bed pillow from Coop Home Goods), the pillows come in firmness levels. ![]() The company sells two types of pillows: the Classic MyPillow and the Giza Elegance MyPillow. MyPillow’s offerings have expanded to include sheets, mattress toppers, blankets, linens, dog beds, and more. The fill is 100% shredded polyurethane foam with a cotton cover. But the company’s website doesn’t provide any additional information on what that actually means. The pillows feature the company’s “patented interlocking fill,” which is its main claim to fame. He created a pillow with a fill that the company claims “adjusts to your individual sleep needs regardless of sleeping position.” Lindell built the company in his native state of Minnesota and sold them locally for years, until he aired his first national infomercial in 2011. He wanted to create something that would answer all his pillow problems-like waking with sore arms and a stiff neck. Per company lore, founder Mike Lindell struggled to find a pillow that he liked, and one night in 2004 he had a dream about making his own.
