What MyPillow does
MyPillow, Inc. is a privately held, vertically integrated direct-to-consumer bedding and home goods company founded in 2004 by Mike Lindell and headquartered in Shakopee, Minnesota (with mailing references to Chaska). The company's original and still-flagship product is a patented interlocking-fill bed pillow designed to adjust to individual sleep positions and maintain shape throughout the night, sold under personal guarantee with a 60-day money-back guarantee and a 10-year warranty. Over the subsequent two decades the catalogue expanded into mattresses (CertiPUR-US foam and coil constructions), mattress toppers, bedding, slippers, socks, apparel, bath and kitchen textiles, pet products, coffee and health supplements — collectively leveraging the core pillow brand to sell a full sleep-and-home assortment.
MyPillow generates revenue almost entirely through one-time direct consumer purchases via its own e-commerce site (mypillow.com), 15 company-owned retail locations, the QVC television shopping channel, and a direct-response marketing engine originally built around half-hour TV infomercials (debuting October 7, 2011), radio host testimonials (since 2014), and print newspaper advertising. Pricing is per-unit with promotional discounting of up to 80% via personality- and show-specific promo codes (e.g., Hannity, WarRoom, Radio Listeners, Lumberjack). Manufacturing is conducted domestically in Shakopee with a mix of domestic and imported components.
The company is wholly owned by founder and CEO Mike Lindell, has historically been bootstrapped with no disclosed institutional funding, and reports 1,001–5,000 employees (over 1,600 as of 2021, with cumulative pillow sales exceeding 50 million units by that year). Post-2021 the operating backdrop has been complicated: management cites roughly $400 million in losses tied to political backlash, and the company faces more than $25 million in adverse creditor claims, including approximately $15.4 million in a slipper supplier judgment and roughly $9 million in a FedEx judgment, alongside at least six additional court judgments totaling $2.3 million over the prior 18 months.
