@yakkoTDI Lol. I was going to reply to your reply to my comment “I”, but that topic seems to have been targeted by the isomagnetic positronic disintegrator. so now I don’t have to make excuses.
I imagine the goat @speediedelivery is to blame for this, somehow.
Title is very misleading the cover is not even 50 bamboo and the inside is:CertiPUR-US certified foam (pulled from Amzn website).
Should be called. Zen Foam Rayon semicircle bolster pillow.
@ohhwell They aren’t. I swear Amazon is in cahoots with Meh and raises the price ahead of a meh offering on some of these products to make it look better than it is (Meh owner Matt Rutledge sold his original deal site, woot.com to Amazon and held a position there for 2 years afterward). That said, they’re worth the price they’re asking IMO, especially for extra lumbar support. Not quite firm enough for a bolster massage, however.
Quite tempted today, as I’ve been using a cheap-chunky-foam $5 pillow to raise/separate my knees while slumbering. 83% positive and only 7% negative on the 'Zon is promising, but the last review was >18 months ago…
Another product desperately searching for a (k)need.
@Kidsandliz Just consulted with Mrs News, who says “Looks uncomfortable and only has one use, unlike most pillows.” <mic drop> (Ironic, since she’s a broadcaster & musician…)
When I see ANY Meh offering a product with ‘bamboo’ in the description, I stop reading and do multiple smashes on the meh button.
I bought bamboo pillows from meh in 2015 and ended up using them under my car’s tires when I was stuck in snow. Now that’s what they were designed for…
@transplant If actual recognizable bamboo fiber is not present as a major item in the product, they ought to be fucking prohibited from using the blasted word in it. This is just plain freaking fraud. And I’m getting damn tired of it.
@butthole69 Yes they were. It was suggested that putting them in the dryer would make them softer, but then it felt like sleeping on smaller rocks.
I’ve regretted buying things from meh, but these topped the list by a mile.
Hmm…i wonder why they changed the description from half-moon to semicircle? Could it be they wanted to discourage all the juvenile delinquents from making ass puns? Seems like Meh is morphing into a strict librarian type.

A Zen bam boozie? This reasoning is semi circular.
Wait what? TWO product threads???
@Kidsandliz
Is that because it’s a twofer? There’s one for each one??
@Kidsandliz Is this situation somehow related to the “We’ve All Been There” topic from @ extramedium?
And then there was one… (topic thread).
@phendrick I just saw that topic - yup. Both had comments. I wonder what was done with the comments on the “other” thread.
The shape looks uncannily similar to my fat arm on the bed. Is this why my wife likes sleeping on it?
/showme a pillow that eats people’s brains as they sleep
@mediocrebot terrifying, no one would suspect a thing
@awk @mediocrebot A mimic.

@dtwsportsfan They tricked you into thinking it’s Rayon! “Zen Foam Mostly-Microfiber semicircle bolster pillow.”
And to top it all off not only are there two threads but now side deal is AWOL
I am having a real hard time trying to figure out how these could possibly be worth $50 a pop at retail.

That chic looks like she’s gonna have some neck pain. Not sure she’s zen.

@MrNews But one of the complaints over and over was that they smash pretty flat while in use so it may or may not work like you want.

@transplant I think I bought those pillows too. Were they absolutely rock hard? Meh mentioned those once when selling other bamboo pillows lol
@butthole69 Yes they were. It was suggested that putting them in the dryer would make them softer, but then it felt like sleeping on smaller rocks.

@ircon96 I dunno, the librarians of my acquaintance are a pretty raunchy bunch. This is more Plano Church Lady.
@ircon96 @werehatrack Yeah, don’t believe that librarian stereotype!
@Kyeh @werehatrack
In my defense, i did specify the STRICT type, i would never insinuate that they’re all insufferable! 
@ircon96 @Kyeh @werehatrack My wife (a former SW engineer and now semi-retired librarian) certainly does not fit the stereotype!
@Kyeh @macromeh @werehatrack I’d appreciate it if someone could let me know when they hold their next convention, they sound like a fun-loving bunch!
Bamboozle
I received my pillow. One was fine the other was stained like it was a used or has water damage
@Sheik318 you need meh.com/support
Suppose you wanted to put some sort of pillowcase on them so you could wash it. What would you use?
