Natural Latex Pillow with Cotton Cover, Queen Size, Soft, GOTS Certified, Helps Relieve Pressure, Sleeping Support, Back and Side Sleepers

For starters, I am 5'8" (172cm) with fairly broad shoulders and a heavy head. I ordered this pillow because I am a side sleeper and I was suffering from chronic neck and shoulder pain that would leave me with extreme headaches lasting for 4-8 hours upon waking. Memory foam, cotton, and pillows made out of other materials do no provide the proper support. Memory foam compresses, sinks, and then becomes stiff which is not comfortable nor supportive. Other materials require constant fluffing and folding and such to get into a decent shape but still fall short in the support department. The pillow itself is quite different from memory foam which is exactly what I was looking for. In comparison to memory foam, these pillows don't sink and become compressed over time as you rest your head on them. They are very supportive and responsive. As soon as you lift your head, the pillow springs right back up. It feels and behaves kind of like what you would expect whale blubber to feel like lol. I ordered the firm but it isn't so firm that it is uncomfortable. I also ordered the king because it is approximately 6.5 inches high as opposed to 6. For side sleepers with broader shoulders, pillow/loft height is one of the most important factors for keeping your neck aligned. It is difficult to measure myself, but I estimate from the center of my neck to the edge of my shoulder is roughly 7-9.5 inches. I am laying on my side as I write this review and it fills in that gap and supports my neck perfectly. If you are suffering from neck and shoulder pain, you should really give this pillow a try. Packaged and delivered as expected. The stitching and overall quality are great and as expected. There is a very mild odor to it but it does not smell bad or like harsh chemicals. It has a "new" scent to it that I can only smell if I put my nose against it directly. I imagine any new pillow would have a similar smell. It doesn't smell gross or like chemicals the way memory foam does.

Oh my goodness. I have tried soooooo many pillows including tempurpedic cloud (too hard), purple harmony (not supportive for my neck), purple dreamlayer (not enough give), mypillow (too lumpy), Sydney Sleep Pillow (too firm), and many many MANY others. It’s been a long and painful experience, searching for comfort in a pillow. Finally - I found the perfect pillow for me. This pillow seems to check all my boxes, satisfying everything I want in a pillow. It is really soft and gentle on my tender head. It is also supportive and has a consistent feel. It has the perfect resistance and never goes flat. It is SO soft and cushy without being too soft. I am a combination sleeper - spending most my time on my side, occasionally rolling to back, and sometimes even flip to my stomach. This pillow is great for everything, but I don’t find myself flipping to my stomach at all - which is a good thing for my spine! I have not been tossing or turning or waking up to adjust. I actually ordered the “extra soft” first, and while I loved sinking in and feeling engulfed by the plushness for a second, it was ultimately way too soft on my neck. The “soft” version is much more supportive, yet still cradles my head and allows me to sink in a bit. I’d say it suspends my head at the perfect height so I don’t hurt my neck or shoulders. It is breathable, great quality, and excellent value for the money. I dreamed of a day I would wake up pain-free, and now I experience that every morning. 👍 100% the perfect pillow for me!!

I am happy with this latex pillow. I use it mostly for side sleeping. I am not sure if this pillow would be ok for back sleeping, because the head might be a little too high- But it depends on how you are using it. It is at least worth a try, because this pillow is that good. I could tell that it was freshly made because it was very bouncy, and responsive. When latex gets old, it dries out, and becomes less buoyant. It is nearly impossible to find a good latex pillow. Latex is rarely perfect, so I always expect differences in Latex items. And this one is Dunlop (not Talalay). I ordered the Firm, and it really feels like a Medium- it was a little softer than expected. But it was still very buoyant, and it has that light, bouncy feel that I like. I highly recommend this latex pillow in the Firm ( medium or soft might be too soft). I will be ordering one of their Firm Latex Mattress Toppers- hopefully it is as good as the pillow.

Very happy with this pillow! I’m a back & side sleeper. Soft is great for me. Kinda curious about the medium, so I might try that next, but overall very happy with soft.

This is my second pillow from this manufacturer! Bought a soft firmness the first time trying to err on the side of caution. It was great quality but not firm enough for me as a side sleeper. Second order was medium firmness and absolutely perfect! I love that latex pillows are naturally hypoallergenic, and I also never have to worry about water stains when I go to bed with damp hair! dhad my previous later pillows for almost 20 years before they started to break down slightly. These new pillows are a great investment in my quality of sleep and worth every penny!
