After spending an hour comparison shopping for memory foam pillows, I decided to make my own, and bought the Five Diamond Collection 5 LBS of New Shredded Memory Foam (along with  Cotton Sateen Zippered Pillow Cases - 2 Pack (Queen, White) - Sateen Pillow Cover for Maximum Softness - Easy Care, Elegant Double Hemmed Stitched Pillow Encasement, 300 Thread Count by Utopia Bedding ).I was a bit skeptical when the shredded memory foam arrived; it was compressed into a small, flat package that I thought would never expand into the amount shown in the photo. But when I opened the package, the shreds immediately began expanding. My daughter helped me decant the shreds into two tall kitchen trash bags and, by the time they'd finished expanding, both bags were about three-quarters full.The largest shreds are about an inch across, while the dust is about the size of a panko bread crumb. I wouldn't say there was a lot of dust, as it didn't fly around everywhere during either the decanting process or while making the pillows. I only had to pick 3-4 pieces off my shirt and a couple larger pieces off the floor. However, I would suggest that you don't attempt to use this product to stuff a pillow made from a loosely-woven fabric like a knit, as the smaller shreds would likely pop through.I'm quite happy with the Five Diamond Collection, because I got two memory foam pillows for less than the cost of one. And I had an awesome night's sleep last night with no neck, back, or jaw pain. I should also note that there was absolutely no chemical odor at all.EDIT...May 11, 2018...after using the pillows I made for a year...The foam is still supportive and fluffy, and the pillows I made from them are still comfortable! About once a month, I unzip the inner pillow case and redistribute the shredded foam, and my pillows are as fluffy as they were when new. For my next project, I'm ordering another 5 pounds and making myself a u-shaped body pillow, since I haven't found one to my liking.EDIT...July 11, 2018The pillows I made more than a year ago are still fluffy and comfortable. I actually bought two more packages and a U-shaped, zippered pillowcase (this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B078LQGN5H/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and made my own u-shaped body pillow. It's like sleeping on a cloud! No matter what position I sleep in, I have full support and comfort. The legs of the U are infinitely customizable for sleeping on either side or on your back.  Read Less
