My buckwheat husk pillow enters the fight.

This only applies to the solid ones though. Those are.. idk how people can sleep on those little bricks. They are the absolute worst things I’ve ever slept on.
I’ve got chunked memory foam pillows, and they are about the same weight as down, but very soft and fluffy.
I had a contoured memory foam pillow. It wasn't as versatile as my current chunked, non-memory-foam pillow. There was a learning curve. Placement and alignment we're really important. I had to sleep on my back, which I usually do anyway. Also, it needed a while to warm up to get the right softness. However, if I was willing to do all that, I'd be rewarded with the best night's sleep by a wide margin.
It was truly the supercar of the pillow world, the very best at it's extremely narrow function and a giant pain in the ass the rest of the time, which was most of the time. Thinking of cuddling with your partner? Think again. Sitting up to read? How 'bout you sit back down. The pillow calls the shots here. Changing positions? Try changing your expectations instead. Forget about traveling with it. It's a whole extra piece of luggage on it's own.
I still miss it sometimes, but I would never go back.
