PineTales® - The Buckwheat Pillow ExpertsReviews of pinetales.com

I’ve been using my pinetales buckwheat pillow for a few years now and it’s the best pillow I’ve ever used. Everytime I travel without it I regret it.

The buckwheat pillow is a really pleasant experience, providing really nice support for my neck and back, and keeping me cool as I run hot when sleeping.

When I was on vacation in Japan, the hotels I stayed in had buckwheat pillows that I really enjoyed using, so when I returned from my trip I looked online. The pillow I received from PineTales is just as comfortable as I remember. The firm nature of the filling makes it great for side sleepers (me), and is moldable to many different shapes and positions. Would highly recommend for anyone in the market for a pillow.

The quality of the pillows is very good. Arrived quickly. I have had the pillows for several months now, and they are great. Would recommend if you want this type of pillow.

I first tried buckwheat style pillows when I was in Korea, and since returning I've been on the hunt for something similar but with some foam support too and PineTales is exactly what I was looking for. The quality is great and the foam buckwheat combination is a great middle ground for those who don't want to jump straight into a pure buckwheat pillow. I've purchased a few of their pillows now, and I love the balance of support and adjustability. They're easy to clean and my neck feels so much more supported.

This is my every day pillow, it has a firmness to it that feels very natural and comfortable. It doesn't heat up, which is a major plus and remains comfortable after a long use.

I never realized how I could sleep comfortably, I’ve always been so fussy and picky with my pillow that I dragged my 25+ pillow with me anywhere I traveled. I discovered buckwheat pillows after traveling to Japan and I am so glad I did! When I got back to US I ordered several from Pine Tales, they are just the best and alleviate my neck and shoulder discomfort. I can’t recommend PineTales enough!

I've been looking for a pillow that my head didn't sink down into because I hate that feeling. To me it feels like the pillow is suffocating me when my head sinks down into it. Since these pillows are buckwheat, they keep my head up and barely move at all. I love that they keep their shape and everything. I was concerned that they might be too hard, but honestly once a couple of nights went by I was used to it and it doesn't bother me now. To be completely honest, the first couple of night my ear hurt and one night my jaw hurt so I was a little nervous, but by the 4th day I guess my body was used to this new firm type of pillow and I haven't had an issue since. The other concern was noise from the buckwheat moving. I can see that being a problem for some because they do make noise, but for me it was kind of calming actually. I know I'm weird haha. But if rain sounds or similar is calming to you while you sleep I bet this would be too. PineTales as a company has been great as well. The pillows ship quickly, and I love the feel of the outside case that the pillow comes with. It's kind of thick but that works out because then you don't feel the buckwheat poking you and it adds a bit of cushion.
