Comparing to a department store "down filled" pillow? Our Hutterite pillow is transparently labelled with the correct down fill percentage. Often many department store down pillows are presented as entirely down filled, which is often not the case. This is the perfect pillow to compare with models which are typically "on sale" for 50 to 70% off their standard price. For example, a $300 department store pillow which is now "only $129!" Best of all, the beautiful down proof, dust mite proof Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Class 1 certified German cotton shell found on all of our pure luxury down pillows is used on this pillow, too.
St Geneve went back and looked at the original traditional European method of making a truly wonderful pillow. You take a high quality down for softness, and blend it with a special type of downy looking feather for spring and durability. Only Hutterite down and feather would do for this pillow.
The Hutterites are an old Christian group devoted to a simple agricultural lifestyle. They follow the basic teachings of the Bible, and live peacefully in self-sustaining communities. When they emigrated from Europe over a century ago, they brought the farming skills of generations with them, including the raising of geese and ducks.
These pillows are all machine washable. The pillow is made with our special SoLoft™ 100% Cotton imported from Germany. This 300 TC cotton twill has no chemical finishes; just pure natural cotton that is specially woven to make it permanently down proof and dust mite proof even after repeated washings. We recommend washing these pillows individually, and only when soiled. A good quality machine washable pillow protector is strongly recommended.

Estimated Delivery, Shipping Costs & Availability
Hutterite pillows are made to order. Please allow approximately 2-3 weeks for delivery. This item automatically qualifies for free delivery to most locations across Canada on orders totalling $100 or more before tax.Purchasing Advice - Soft, Medium or Firm?
Generally speaking, medium-fill down pillows are the most popular. Firm pillows also also quite popular with side sleepers, while soft pillows are not as common. Soft pillows are recommended to be purchased in pairs so that when you're sleeping on your front or back, you would use one pillow, while on your side, you'd use two.
If, after 30 days of use, you find your St Genève down pillow is either not filled enough, or has too much fill for your liking, we will make arrangements to send your pillow back to St Genève to be adjusted for a reasonable cost.
Care Instructions
Wash regular, standard and queen pillows as pairs, wash king pillows individually. Use a pure, gentle soap; do not bleach. Use medium temperature water and the maximum water level, with an extra rinse cycle. If water is left in the pillow after the extra rinse cycle, squeeze out the excess water. Machine dry pillows individually at medium temperatures. After the first drying cycle, pull apart any clumps that have formed. Use a tumble dry setting for all drying cycles.
We recommend washing your down filled duvets, pillows, jackets and sleeping bags with Le Blanc Down Wash. This is an exceptional cleanser designed for all washable and colourfast down-filled fabrics. Le Blanc® Downwash® is formulated to protect the naturally resilient oils in down from drying out while preserving its loft.

It's quite nice (I selected the firm version in standard size) it doesn't quite match Grandma's pillows in terms of having that nice deep cool feel, however I no longer have neck pain and rarely wake up in the middle of the night since I've replaced my old pillow.
I'd say it's 85% there!
