Do you have king sized pillows or standard pillows?
We've had standard for years but the fact that sheet sets come with king sized pillow cases made me wonder how many people actually buy King sized pillows.
Totally curious!

One came with the bed and we bought a second. Most king sized bedding has king sized pillows. I mostly sleep with my smaller feather pillow. We have 5 pillows total

Our king size pillows are for decoration - at night we sleep with standard size pillows

We got king sized pillows because we needed new pillows anyway.
We sleep with a million pillows though. We have three regular ones that go across the top to help prop up our king sized pillows (somehow we smoosh pillows really easily/quickly so we always stack). Then we each have a king sized one, DH has one of those ones that stays cooler, I have a boppy cuddle pillow I put between my knees because DH stole my body pillow when we got married. And then I also cuddle a plush blanket that's sort of like an extra pillow.
And that doesn't count the throw pillows that are only on the bed once a month when our cleaning lady comes and makes our bed.

king sized ones - I love them and don't think I'd ever switch back to smaller pillows again, even if we got a smaller bed.

We upgraded to King pillows when we got the King mattress and bed. The sheets come with the big pillowcases and it just looked funny! The standard pillows became our new guest pillows.

We each have a king on the bottom and regular on top. I like my head really propped up! lol

We have these memory foam gel pillows that are standard sized so we use them in our King. But if we didn't I expect we would use king size pillows.

DH likes standard size pillows, I like King. So we each have two of our preferred size...

King size pillow. If DH is traveling, his pillow doubles as a body pillow.

Both. I layer with standard behind the king and standard again in front of the king pillows.

I like the king sized pillow cases on standard pillows, they allow you to kind of fold them in so you don't see the actual pillow.

We sleep on king but the decorative shams are regular and we just have three across.

We still have our queen sized pillows from our former bed because we really like those pillows.

We have a pile of standard each- we each sleep with 3 pillows like pregnant ladies (at least I got used to it while I was pregnant- what's his excuse??) we have a few queen size pillows that I use the king size cases on. So our sheets and pillow cases often don't match.

We have 4 king size pillows on our bed. They are a great size, I like them better than standards!

We use king sized pillows, and I love them! We each have our own pillow, and we only need one each to fill the bed horizontally. With standard pillows, you need 3 to fit across the bed, and then my head keeps falling in between them.

@aprild: and everyone else that replied, I went ahead and ordered two king sized pillows. My husband doesn't like it but I love it! So each night I take one and put it against the headboard and then sleep on one of them.
He still sleeps with a standard pillow.
We ended up keeping all of our standards and when I make the bed I put the king sized in the back, 3 standards in front of those, then the 3 standards with shams in front of that. I love the look of so many pillows.
