I can't believe it has been a month already!  The summer is really slipping away, especially when you're busy!

Let's get right to it:

For June, I slept on The Natural Bedroom by Vivetique's Extra Fill 40oz Kapok Pillow.  For the record, the pillow was a standard size - which is the only size it comes in.  The pillow is filled entirely with Kapok and if you don't know what that is, just read last month's pillow review.  The cover is 100% certified organic cotton and the pillow is completely enclosed, no zipper.  This pillow has a resting loft of a whopping 9 inches!  Yes, there are mattresses that are not that thick!

I found this pillow to be just crazy tall, even for me and I have broad shoulders.  The thing was so thick that I almost couldn't get it in the pillow case!  For those that are really looking for a tall pillow, this is it and I doubt you're going to find anything remotely as tall as this big guy! 

The pillow is quite firm, but that should not be surprising due to the amount of stuffing it has.  There literally is likely no space to put even one more strand of fill into this pillow!  That being said, the pillow is surprisingly light weight, which is surprising given its size.  It would take absolutely no physical effort to move this pillow at all - but don't try shaping it because there is just no way to move the filling around, it's packed tight!

Kapok can not be sold in California due to flamability regulations, but the up side is that it will float!  So, if you are caught in a flash flood while in bed, you can use your pillow as a personal floatation device.  Guess those government types didn't think of that one when they were handing down safety regulations now did they...

The pillow is made in Arcadia, California, U.S.A. by The Carwile Brothers - a.k.a. The Natural Bedroom by Vivetique and carries a 2 year warranty, as do all Natural Bedroom pillows.

So, that's the skinny on this fat puppy!
