Aside from just bedding and table linens, our store Pioneer Linens has several pillow options to choose from! From purely decorative pillows to picking the most comfortable option for your bedroom. This includes helping you find your personal preference between down and down-alternative options. While you may have heard of “down pillows” or down-alternative pillows”, you may not know what makes them so different.
Traditional Down Pillows
Down pillows are typically softer than down-alternative pillows. This is because they are made from authentic duck and goose feathers. While these are the most sought-after filling option, there are some that don’t want to buy animal-based products. Organic down is also typically more expensive than down-alternative and is usually harder to wash. There are some who may even be allergic to animal feathers!
Down-Alternative Pillows
Down-Alternative serves as a secondary choice for those who may have problems with traditional down. To prevent allergies, down-alternative is made with synthetic material, and is carefully curated in order to mimic the feeling of traditional down pillows. Another benefit of down-alternative pillows, is that they are cost effective, and usually much cooler than down pillows, making them perfect for those either trying to save money or run hot while they sleep.
Regardless of which you may prefer, Pioneer Linens will have the selection you’re looking for, and not just for sleeping pillows, we also have decorative pillows, euro pillows, and several decorative pillowcases and shams to go with whatever you may decide.
