Awful, very soft not firm at all
Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen, Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen
Ordered the Serta Ocean Breeze Breathable Medium/Firm Bed Pillow. The listing is misleading—it shows two pillows in the photo, but only one is included for the $47.00 price. The pillow arrived vacuum-packed and was extremely flat. Despite efforts, I couldn't fluff it back to a usable thickness; the total loft was only about 4 inches. Very disappointed with the quality and presentation. Returned item.

Only 1 pillow
Color: White, Size: Standard/Queen
It is misleading that the picture shows 2 pillows but you get 1 pack, that would mean 2 pillows but what do I know, huh? This is only 1 pillow.
