These pillows are top notch for the price. Quality is great. I didn't expect pipping along the edges but the little touch makes the pillows more luxurious (despite the fact that no one can see it when in the pillow case but I know :)) . The filling was substantial and looks great when on the bed but more importantly was very comfortable when sleeping. I prefer a medium fill and these hit the spot. Also for those worried about the feathers poking out of the pillow I have not experienced that. Would highly recommend and I am actually buying two more!
