![]() The full price is not far off from other shredded-foam pillows we’ve tested but at times the company offers steep promotions, which can bring the price of a Classic MyPillow to a fraction of the cost-as low as $19.98. The Giza Elegance rings up at $89.98 for a queen and $98.98 for a king in the blue, or “most firm” version. The Classic is the cheaper of the two, coming in at $69.98 for a standard size pillow, and $89.98 for king. (We’re not sure what to suggest if that’s what you’d hoped to do.) How much does MyPillow cost? Admittedly, this could require guesswork and is easier if you purchase the Classic Pillow, which has defined firmness levels, as opposed to the Giza Elegance pillow, which doesn’t provide such a scale. The company suggests customers who are switching from sleeping on a down or feather pillow decrease their suggested fill firmness by one level, as down is generally softer than foam. The Giza Elegance pillow has the same fill in a 100% cotton case, and four firmness levels that are color-coded to indicate the amount of filling (the company doesn’t give firmness labels for these, instead relying on color alone). The Classic pillow comes in two firmnesses: “medium” and “firm.” The website doesn’t specify what fabric is used on the Classic version. To determine which is best for you, the company suggests using its chart system that recommends firmness based on a small chart with two columns labeled to “men” and “women,” and rows corresponding to T-shirt size (yes, really). Rather than offering the consumer the option to physically add or remove filling (like our best bed pillow from Coop Home Goods), the pillows come in firmness levels. The company sells two types of pillows: the Classic MyPillow and the Giza Elegance MyPillow. MyPillow’s offerings have expanded to include sheets, mattress toppers, blankets, linens, dog beds, and more. The fill is 100% shredded polyurethane foam with a cotton cover. But the company’s website doesn’t provide any additional information on what that actually means. The pillows feature the company’s “patented interlocking fill,” which is its main claim to fame. ![]() He created a pillow with a fill that the company claims “adjusts to your individual sleep needs regardless of sleeping position.” Lindell built the company in his native state of Minnesota and sold them locally for years, until he aired his first national infomercial in 2011. He wanted to create something that would answer all his pillow problems-like waking with sore arms and a stiff neck. IRip is a program that lets you transfer songs, photos, and other media from your iOS device to your computer and save it wherever you choose.Per company lore, founder Mike Lindell struggled to find a pillow that he liked, and one night in 2004 he had a dream about making his own. Through this program, you can save photos, organize your music, and connect to iTunes, if you choose. Quick readings: When you connect your iOS device to this app, it quickly completes a scan of the contents and displays it in the main interface window. The experience gained by IRIP in strategic core fields activities gives the company the capability to carry-out special projects requiring innovative technical solutions and fast turn around. Transfers are speedy as well, so you don't have to worry about blocking out a lot of time to finish what you start in this app. IRIP also provides services on partners sites all over the globe for technical assistance and operation. Good organization: Files are organized into categories including Music, Photos, and People, and clicking on one of these allows you to view all of the included details. Photos are displayed as thumbnails, so you can easily see which ones you want to save, and Playlists are shown separately below the main categories, making them easy to navigate as well. Incomplete recognition: Although a People category was created when we connected an iPhone through the app, no Contacts were imported. Music was also not present at all the first time the device was connected, and we had to disconnect and reconnect before it showed up. There is no way to refresh a connection while a device remains plugged in. Inadequate Help: The Help link only takes you to a FAQs page with about nine general entries. ![]() If you're looking for something along the lines of a Quick Start Guide, or if the problem you're having doesn't fit into one of the included categories, you're out of luck. IRip is a handy little program for managing the transfer of media between your computer and your iOS devices. It's not the most efficient at reading all of the data on your device, but what it does display is well organized.Įditors' note: This is a review of the trial version of iRip for Mac 2.1.7.
