I'm after a new pillow for bed chair. I've got a trakker bed chair. Would like a large pillow preferably a trakker one. I've had a look on eBay and so on. But where the best place to get one with a half decent price
I just bought a nice pillow off Amazon for £8 and stuck it in a Gardner pillow case

I just went to Boyes, bought some black fleece material, made myself a simple pillow case and pinched one of our lasses pillows with a water proof wipe clean cover. I have used it for about 20 years. It's probably possible to buy "camouflaged" fleece material if you want.
I used black as it does not show the dirt so easy so I don't have to wash it so often and on occasions if I'm traveling light, just stuff my jacket in etc. Plus a fleece pillow case is brilliant in Winter as it's always warm when you put your head on it.

Not sure why you would want a trakker pillow because its a trakker bed but i just use two goose down pillows the same as i do at home and there miles more comfy than those little crapy fishing branded pillows.

Not a cheap case.. An expensive case 300 thread makes all the difference.. Don't skimp on a pillow case 🙂

Advanta one is cheap(ish) but large and comfy - I prefer 2 pillows so hide the brand shame with a Trakker one!

Got the korda one well happy
Currently field testing the ONC one, brilliant bit of kit.
It has a small pocket for the tooth fairy, LED lite that is handy when weeing out the sleeping bag,has 4 pressure setting from lounging when stoned to stiff to help alleviate spodding neck,the zip fastening is from a Himalayan Goats rucksack so is temperature proof down to minus 42 degrees. Currently it will be available in four colorways, plus pink for ladies or Northeners. retail will be around the £130-£150 for the small size whilst the larger size will convert into a boat and unhooking mat via our patented easy click system, and will be out from Jan/Feb 2025 - with optional wheel kit and porn pocket (not available in the ladies version).

Sign me up for one, they sound perfect. I'll take anything that's not pink but I need the optional porn pocket.

So...............
Why don't people just take the one or two pillows they use at home every night? Only need a carpy cover if you're that way inclined, you already know they suit your needs🤷♂️.

"Ah but I do have a green pillow case so that helps catch a few🙂"
Ha, I did exactly the same, for some reason having a home pillow case didn't cut it!!
Still didn't catch anything though so perhaps I need a camo one!

Got my local dry cleaner to cut down/resize an old aqua union jack one i found second hand online - filled with my own stuffing from a cheap normal pillow and of course had it cleaned - sized to my bed perfectly and velcro'd in place and left on. tackle comps take the mick with pillow prices and their either too small or massive!

Hardly, they're a loss leader as consumables, do you want a used pillow from some greasy haired tramp?

Pillows from B&M and carp green cases offa Amazon..better than any 'fishing' pillows I have used.

Can greasy haired tramps afford a long haul ticket? I'd say the chances of using one of their pillows is slim!

I asked my Mrs where my pillow came from she recons it was probably Dunelm before that I used a small one from ikea which was rubbish. I do have a green pillow case because it doesn't show the muck as white does.

once on a transit flight in ME, i saw a young couple (German) take NOT only the pillows but a few fleece blankets in full view of cabin crew, the cabin crew LAUGHED!
RE: "I'd have to spend a fair few thousand pound to fly long haul to save myself paying 20 quid for a pillow "

Has anyone tried one of those inflatable camping pillows - saw one on a YouTube video a while back and thought it might be worth a punt. Ive got one of the Nash ones, the covers nice enough but the actual pillow is pretty rubbish to be fair. In hind-sight I should have just bought an olive green pillow case and whatever pillow I liked the feel on in Dunelm or something - would have been a lot cheaper and more comfortable

I used an inflatable pillow for years back in the 80's, I cannot recall where I got it from but I could not fault it, I used to just put it inside my fleece jacket and it was lovely and warm. Eventually I made a fleece pillow case for it.
The trick with an inflatable pillow case is not to over inflate them, it just makes them hard and horrible, just blow them up and leave the valve open so that the air pressure just matches the air pressure outside it then close the valve. Its a bit like using a SIM.
Sadly it got a puncture and meant to repair it, I still have it and I have never replaced it and just stole one of our Lasses and still use my fleece pillow case on it.
