these pillows either have pin feathers in them or some type of plastic liner that makes noise like squeezing  plastic inside of them.  I do not recommend these. they are advertised as firm and I would describe them as very very firm or hard.  Am going to try to return these as I have disposed of bag they came compressed in so if not return I will use as stuffers in shams. I have goose down pillows that are so soft to touch and these are way out in left field as far as comfort.  the tag on the end of each states goose down but they are far from goose down I used to.....  I do not recommend these pillows.  If there were less than one star I would rate them less than 1.
