Fill and feel
An 89% feather core with cotton batting on both sides
Three Geese builds the pillow in three chambers: an inner one with goose feathers, 89% of the fill, and two outer ones with cotton batting, 11%. There is no down in the stated fill, despite the feather and down class we file it under. The maker calls the result medium firm and says it suits people who do not want to be propped up too high.
The cotton shell carries a 600 thread count. OEKO-TEX certificate SHHO 040260 is valid but held by a Hangzhou down factory, Zhejiang Shengli Down Products, and neither RDS nor DOWNPASS confirmed the brand.
Size and loft
Three inches of stated thickness on a 20 by 28 inch body
The queen and standard share a 20 by 28 inch body, with a gusseted version and a king also listed. Stated thickness is just 3 inches, and the flatness count agrees. Side sleepers with wide shoulders will likely find that short of what they need.
Expect to wait after unboxing. The pillows ship vacuum packed, and the maker asks you to pat, fluff and air them for several hours before they reach full loft.
Care
Washable by the features list, unclear by the label
Three Geese never states a care method, which holds care to 5. The details table says tumble dry and the features list says washable. Read the sewn-in label before washing a feather pillow on that basis.
Value
Ten dollars under the feather median
At $24.99 a pillow in pairs, fours or sixes, you pay about $10 less than the $34.99 feather and down median. A standard pair costs $45.98 ($22.99 each), and kings run $34.99 each. Spend $44.99 a pillow and the brand's own Adjustable Layer pillow climbs to 7.9, while the Puredown Goose Feather & Down Pillow, Cotton Cover reaches 6.5 at about the same $20.
Nothing is published on returns or warranty, so keep the vacuum bag until you are sure.
