I don't buy anything that comes from animals so I buy down alternative pillows and comforters, no leather or wool or silk, etc.   The best pillows I found are Serta down alternative fill- they are not only beautiful and have a side gusset which is really nice, but they are not too soft and not too firm and really puffy which makes them look great when the beds are made up!

I prefer not to buy down as well.

I've used both down and other types of pillows, and it really comes down to personal preference. Down pillows can be super comfy, but as you mentioned, they're a bit more high-maintenance.

I personal don't have an issue with down pillows, but that doesn't mean my guest doesn't. The concern I had when considering this was 'what if our guest has an allergy?' Needless to say, we went with down alternative pillows.

I have down an also have fibre filled pillows . If people have allergy’s to feathers I use the fibre filled . Nobody complains

I don't use down pillows personally. I use 2 soft bamboo infused soft and 2 medium.  Cheaper to replace every 6 months.

With my back and neck problems, I am miserable if I sleep on anything but My Pillow brand. I never travel without my My Pillow. They truly are engineered better (much better neck support), and also can be machine washed and dried which is better for sanitation. So for my guests I have high quality memory foam pillows inside the pillow shams, and My Pillow brand pillows for the 'regular' pillow (stacked with the sham pillow on the bed). We almost always ask guests how they slept, and not one has ever said they weren't comfortable.
