The safe synthetic filling material is actually a rambunctious cotton wool.
On doctor’s advice, we had to change all the pillows and blankets in our house to the new and synthetic ones because of an allergy. I didn’t check what the reason was behind my allergy (maybe dust mites or maybe natural filling material), but once we replaced them, I noticed that my nose stopped running. And that’s all, here the list of advantages ends.
Impressions of use:
The HAMPDAM pillow material isn’t pleasant by touch. It feels as though it’s made of 100% synthetic slithering fabric. Earlier I didn’t have a chance to sleep on such pillows, so the first experience with this one was meant to be determining.
And the pillow turned out to be inconvenient and inappropriate for sleeping.
The filling material really looks like torn cotton wool. It does spread evenly inside but it doesn't hold the loader at all and does not create those comfort feelings that I experienced sleeping on my old pillow. After two days of torturous sleep, we decided to wash this pillow twice, hoping to make it softer.
How to wash the pillow quickly:
1 day
They advise to wash it once in a month to keep it clean and not to let the dust mites inhabit it. And this is actually the second pro of this pillow. It’s super easy to keep clean. All you have to do is to put it into your washing machine for 140°F and wring it with 1000 circulation. You can hang it with regular clothes and let dry. Natural fabric will never let you do the same.

Overall:
Well, it didn’t suit me. Within a week, I still didn't manage to get used to this pillow and had to buy another one. I won’t recommend it for purchasing, though maybe someone will find it okay.
