Looking for a decent pillow here on the north coast...tried the best la Sirena had to offer: no comment

Anything around Sosua/Cab/Pop? Or maybe Santiago that wont crumble into little bits of foam within 2 months??

Just import your own. Have your next vistor mule one down for you.

Well, they're not exactly small items!
I was just in NY and meant to bring one back...until i found that it was a decision between the several pounds of good parmesan and a pillow

Order one through Amazon and ship to EPS in Sosua.

I have a down pillow I could lend you if you return it

Or use Transexpress or EncargoPaq( neither have a membership fee like EPS does). A good pillow in the DR is as hard to find a yellow lemons, no?

Hmm, maybe this is the idea. I already have an account with EPS...do they charge only by weight, not by size??

Years ago I bought two pillows in Pricesmart, the best I've ever had. Don't know if they still sell them.

I had some neck problems from sleeping a few years ago and found the best thing for it was to fill a new sock with about a pound of rice and then put another one over the open end. Perfect if you happen to be a back sleeper.

Anything in the DR is either terrible or insanely overpriced when it comes to any kind of pillow or mattress.

We have Bought Some Good ones at Gonzales in Puerto Plata on the second floor. Not to say they still have them but They were in Flattened bags And have been surprisingly durable and comfortable !
