Is My Pillow good?

My Pillow, which earned its fame through late-night infomercials, is generally considered to be a poor product. Most MyPillow products have a 3.5 rating on Amazon after numerous reviews, a full point lower than most of their competitors in the price range.

My Pillow has also been dogged by numerous complaints, especially in regards to their "buy one, get one free" offer. Their scamming of customers has led to an F rating from the BBB and a lowly 2.1 rating after 1,644 reviews on Pissed Consumer. My Pillow was also the target of a 2016 class-action lawsuit for false advertising, which the company settled for $1 million. The lawsuit challenged My Pillow's claim of being able to cure fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, sleep apnea, cerebral palsy, acid reflux, and other conditions, and also complained of founder and spokesperson Michael J Lindell marketing himself as a "sleep expert", despite having no board certification or training in sleep medicine.
