my son has allergies to a lot of things. Dust being one of them and he is required to have casings on all of his pillows etc. this one is what he currently has and i am very satisfied with the protection

I love these pillows! I first saw them featured in Good Housekeeping back in the Spring and thought I would give them a try. They really do work! They provide a great level of support and I LOVE the fact that you can wash them and they look just like new after washing. I've washed pillows in the past and been forced to throw them out because they got flat. This one really looks and feels just like when I bought it. They also received an A+ rating from Good Housekeeping, which I really trust. http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/product-reviews/home-products/pillow-reviews/aller-ease-washable-allergy-protection-pillow-398?click=main_sr
