If you are looking for a pillow protector that does not alter the feel of your pillow by squishing it into a tight and narrow case, then these are the pillow protectors for you!!! They were a bit 'newbie' stiff at first so I washed them before using and they are fine now. They hit all the musts in a pillow protector...allergy helpful, bed bug and dust mite proof, and still leave you with your own pillow comfort level! I am a happy shopper with this purchase!
