- The Pillow is a Japanese subscription service delivering custom-made pillows for $10/month.
- Subscribers answer 25 questions, and an AI analyzes the data to create a pillow tailored to their preferences from 700,000 options.
- The service allows for height and firmness adjustments and free refills, but canceling involves a return shipping fee.

A: Did you hear about the news? This crazy pillow subscription service!

B: No, what happened? Tell me!

A: Apparently, there’s this company called “The Pillow” in Japan. You pay a small monthly fee – like, 1,500 yen – and they send you a custom-made pillow!

B: Wow! Seriously? That's… unusual. I’ve had the same pillow for ages! Like, way too long!

A: Right? This writer, Ahiruneko, he’s been using the same one for 20 years! He was worried about getting a new one that's uncomfortable.

B: I totally get that! It’s a big decision. So, how does it work?

A: They ask you a bunch of questions – like how tall you are, how much you weigh, even how well you sleep! Then, an AI creates a pillow just for you, from like, 700,000 different options!

B: 700,000?! That’s a lot of pillows! What’s it like?

A: It’s filled with these little plastic tubes, kinda common here actually. They call them “Mochi Koroll Blue” because it’s super soft.  The writer thought the price tag – 27,500 yen! – was crazy, but he was paying only 5% for a month!

B: That’s pretty good, I guess. Was it comfy?

A: Yeah! He said it felt great, fluffy but also supportive. But it was a little too high at first.

B: Oh yeah? Problems can be fixed though!

A: Exactly! You can adjust the height and even add or remove filling to make it perfect! It’s all in the manual.

B: That’s really clever! But… is it worth it?

A: That's the tricky part. The writer thinks it's best to cancel after a couple of months to save money. It’s kinda expensive in the long run. Plus, you have to pay to ship the pillow back when you cancel!

B: That's a bit of a bummer! Sounds like it's more for people who *really* love messing with their pillows.

A: Yeah, I guess so. But he says it helped him understand what he *really* wants in a pillow. So, even though he's cancelling, he learned a lot!
