No. Follow the tek, that's why there's a tek.

Cotton is organic and harbors contams while polyfil is synthetic.

cotton provides a food source for contaminates because it is organic, and absorbs water making a very good habitat for mold and bac. Polyester does not absorb water nor contain any adequate food source. I strictly use filters made with medical tyvec (lifted from the ER or DR's office) sandwiched around poly fiber-fill. They keep for a good long time and have worked very well for me.

I pondered the same question to myself, but decided to just go buy the pillow. I bought extra firm, so its more dense. I figure one big pillow can last a while.
