That means yu can simply return or exchange it by the end of the trial period if it’s not for you. How we test memory foam pillows A pillow protector keeps your pillow clean for longer, safeguarding it from dust mites, spills, stains and germs in the same way a good mattress protector looks after your mattress. While spills and stains are unsightly and a breeding ground for bacteria, dust mites are the other big problem with unprotected pillows - especially those that aren’t cleaned regularly. Queen: Queen size pillows measure 20 by 30 inches and despite the name, many shoppers opt to use this size on other types of mattresses as well. Queen size pillows are long enough to accommodate sleepers who frequently switch sleeping positions. While many people love the cooling comfort of gel pillows, there are some that are particularly fond of this jelly-like material. People who love memory foam but tend to overheat, those who sleep on their sides, allergy sufferers, and pregnant women are all drawn to this type of material. People Who Sleep Warm

Memory foam is notorious for trapping heat, The Brooklyn Bedding Luxury Cooling Memory Foam Pillow has a cover made from proprietary fabric designed to promote airflow and sleep cool. By drawing heat away from your body, this material can offset the uncomfortable warmth that often occurs when memory foam traps heat. Off-Gassing: Gel pillows often emit off-gassing odors at first, which may be bothersome to some people. Fluffing: One-piece memory foam pillows are low-maintenance and don’t need to be fluffed. Shredded memory foam pillows can become lumpy if not regularly fluffed, but the advantage of shredded pillows is that many of them can be machine-washed. While shopping for a new cool gel memory foam pillow, ask yourself the following questions to help narrow down your options: We've assembled a selection of the best pillows available now, from many of the best mattress and best duvet brands including Simba and Emma. We've included a variety of fillings, from traditional feather fills and microfibre alternatives through to memory foam and even a latex option, with various firmness levels and depths and even cooling and hypoallergenic pillows, so however you tend to sleep you should find an option here that'll be the perfect bedtime fit. If you're not entirely sure what you should get, our section on how to choose the best pillow for your needs can tell you what firmness and depth you should look for.Resists Allergens: Gel pillows are almost always made with memory foam or microfiber, both of which are resistant to dust mites and other allergens. During the pillow testing process, our testers assessed contouring, support, breathability, and overall firmness and feel. We also handled the pillow extensively to evaluate moldability and shape retention. We performed other tests using tools such as thermal sensors and VOC meters to measure temperature control and off-gassing. Customizability: The viscous nature of memory foam means manufacturers can mold it into virtually any shape, which is why it’s commonly used in orthopedic pillows. The Sleep Is the Foundation Gel Memory Foam Pillow and Sleep Is the Foundation Loft Pillow have average price-points for memory foam pillows. The Gel Memory Foam Pillow is slightly more expensive than the Loft Pillow. You will find memory foam pillows on the market that are significantly more expensive, but price is not necessarily an indicator of quality. The Sleep Is the Foundation pillows performed just as well as many of the pricier foam pillows that we’ve tested. Combination sleepers who change position a lot in the night will need a more responsive and versatile pillow. Look for one with a malleable or fluffable fill that you can mould into a shape that suits you, or find one with an adjustable fill so that you can find your own perfect loft.

The pillow has a polyester cover and contains a blend of shredded memory foam and polyester fibers. Foam is known for its adaptive and moldable properties, so pressure relief is one of this pillow’s major strengths. The shredded design of the foam allows some airflow through the pillow, making it cooler than solid foam pillows we’ve tested. Shredded: Shredded memory foam pillows can either contain 100 percent memory foam or be blended with other materials such as latex or fiberfill. The advantage of using shredded memory foam is that users can add or remove filling to adjust the pillow loft to their liking, as well as customize the shape of the pillow to a certain extent. Shredded memory foam generally allows more room for airflow compared to a one-piece memory foam pillow. Availability: Memory foam pillows are a popular product that you’re sure to find virtually anywhere pillows are sold. How firm do I want my pillow? Gel memory foam pillows come in varying degrees of firmness, so you should narrow down options based on your preferred firmness level. The ideal firmness depends on your sleeping position and personal preference. A too-firm pillow may cause pressure to build up, while a too-soft pillow may sag excessively and fail to provide the needed amount of support. Most sleepers opt for a pillow that falls somewhere in between. Some pillows offer the option of adding or removing filling to adjust the firmness level.Traditional: Many people are looking for a traditional shape that is flat and even. This is a standard pillow shape that caters to most sleepers, but can also be infused with gel for cooling and contouring support. Traditional models come in different sizes like Standard, Queen, and King. Standard: Standard pillows are the most common pillow type. They are most commonly used for twin beds but they can be used with any size mattress. They measure 20 by 26 inches. When it comes to sleep accessories, we all have our own unique needs and preferences but our experts here at Mattress Advisor have found that the following groups tend to benefit from gel pillows the most: Allergen Resistant: Memory foam mattresses are generally resistant to dust mites and bacteria, making them a good choice for allergy sufferers as long as you’re not allergic to the foam itself. Down alternative fibers fill the pillow’s outer chamber. These fibers mimic the natural softness of real down without triggering allergy symptoms, using animal-based materials, or retaining too much heat. A shell made of 100% cotton provides additional breathability and softness. You can machine wash the outer chamber, but the memory foam shouldn’t be laundered in any way.

We’ve tested over 200 pillows, so we know what works and what doesn’t. Based on our findings, we created two pillows — the Sleep Is the Foundation Gel Memory Foam Pillow and the Sleep Is the Foundation Loft Pillow. We’ll focus on the Gel Memory Foam Pillow. Super Standard (20” x 28”): Super standard pillows are relatively rare. With a length halfway between the size of a standard and a queen pillow, they may be suitable for any mattress up to a queen. At SleepFoundation.org, we consider sleep to be a pillar of health. We make it our mission to provide you with the knowledge and tools to achieve the best sleep possible. Our team has tested thousands of sleep products, getting hands-on with each product and assessing their performance with qualitative and quantitative data. Throughout our testing, we’ve come to know which designs and materials produce the best results. We took this knowledge and created the Sleep Is the Foundation product line in 2023, specializing in sleep products. Side sleepers will benefit from a pillow that can relieve pressure on their shoulders and help maintain a neutral spine position. This means looking for a pillow with a firm feel and a high loft; it's also worth seeking out a malleable or fluffable pillow that you can scrunch into shape to suit your sleeping position.Cooling Properties: Heat build-up in your pillow can make you uncomfortably warm and disrupt your sleep. Memory foam is notorious for heat retention, although today’s manufacturers use many techniques to get around this. Of course, shredded memory foam naturally allows more room for airflow, so all other things being equal, a shredded pillow will sleep cooler than a one-piece pillow.
