Pillow Protector - Keetsa


Pillow Protector - Keetsa


$20.99


Pillow Protector Amazing Protection for your Pillows with Advanced Micro-Fiber Technology. Protect Sleep Environment. Scientific studies have revealed that bed mattresses and pillows can harbor millions of dust mites. The dander from these parasites is the leading cause for air borne allergens only second to pollen. The Keetsa Protective Case for your pillow creates a barrier between you and the unpleasant organisms that often become resident in unprotected pillows over time. How This Works: The advanced micro-fibers in our cases actually create a barrier between you, dust mites and the allergens they cause. The Case completely envelops the entire pillow (all sides); a zipper allows you to put it on/take it off. Because the fabric is made of micro-fibers, it’s still ‘breathable’ so you don’t get the sweat-effect that often comes with old fashioned plastic cases. The micro-fiber fabric is also water resistant and washable. Other Key Facts: We highly recommend the use of The Keetsa Protective Cases as soon as you buy a new pillow. They are machine washable in warm water. ** 2 protectors included. 1 protector included on Body Pillow Protector. CONTOUR Shape (20” x 15” x 5”) $20.99 TRADITIONAL Shape (26” x 20”) $20.99 TRADITIONAL Shape-Queen Size (30” x 20”) $20.99 BODY PILLOW Shape (60” x 20”) $20.99 Learn more about Keetsa here.

Mitsibishi customers services Why do they ignore my complaints is it just me or dont they care about there pro

I purchased a brand new Mitsibushi l200 animal.(The name should of given me a clue) The beast of burden would have been a better discription.Despite numeriouse returns to the garage the vehicle is still a night mare.My guys at work complained that it was unsafe.Uncomfortable,Noisey and a lot like a 1930s tractor. But with a worse turning circle.
On my test drive after the guys complaits I AGREE. IT is a death trap.Poor brakes Bad gear box.1930s leaf spring suspension. And rattles that shoulde be in a carnival.
The whistles hoots and sqeaks need ear protectors.
Customer services just keep on ignoring the problems there solution is for me to buy my way out of the car and up grade at my cost to a better vehicle. As any one else had the same problems with an L200 Animal let me know.

It sounds like a built to a price ,for a particular usage type vehicle to me.If you want luxury motoring you have to pay for it.What is wrong with leaf springs?.off road work is generally very slow low gear work,not like the films,if that is what you are complaining about.If you want top brakes .,buy a racing car,otherwise,drive within the parameters your vehicle was designed for.If this vehicle is a pickup truck ,then it will have stiffer stronger springs for load carrying,if you run light you will have a hard ride and the accompanying noises.Be very careful braking,give yourself more distance,pickups are light at the rear, and tend to skid and lock up easily, when being driven by an amateur, who is not used to altering his driving technique to suit the vehicle he is driving at the time.
