The shape
Most pillows are one flat block that asks your neck to adapt to it. This one is moulded into five areas, each doing a different job depending on how you lie down.
Measurements are nominal and taken from the moulded foam core. Memory foam is a soft material — expect small variations between units.
One edge sits at 11 cm for sleeping on your side, the other at 9 cm for your back. You choose the edge that matches the night.
Between the mattress and the back of your neck there is a gap. A flat pillow leaves it empty. The raised front edge is shaped to fill it.
Dense enough to hold its shape through the night, soft enough to yield under the weight of a head. It returns to shape in seconds, not minutes.
The cover unzips and goes in the machine. A pillow you cannot clean is a pillow you replace.
The difference is not the material. Both are foam. The difference is that one of them has a shape.
I have a long neck and every flat pillow left a gap I could fit my hand into. The raised front edge actually fills it. Three weeks in and I have stopped waking up to readjust.
I sleep on my side most nights and on my back when my shoulder plays up. Being able to flip to the 9 cm edge instead of buying a second pillow is the thing I did not know I wanted.
The first three nights were odd — it holds your head still and you notice. By night six I had stopped thinking about it. They warn you about this before you buy, which is why I stuck with it.
Side sleeper with a bad shoulder. The notch along the front edge means my arm goes under the pillow instead of being squashed by it. First pillow that has accounted for that.
The 60D foam does what they claim. It gives under my head and it is back to shape by the time I have made the bed. My last memory foam pillow stayed dented for an hour.
It does hold more heat than the pillow it replaced. The page says so plainly, so I cannot really complain. The knit cover helps and I sleep with the window open anyway.
Unzips, goes in the machine, comes out fine. It is cut to the contour so it does not bunch up. Small thing, but it is why this one will last me longer than the last three.
I am not going to claim it cured anything. I am saying I wake up without the tightness I had every morning for two years. That is enough for me.
Ordered one to test it. My partner kept stealing it, so now there are two. The lowered wings on the sides are the detail nobody else seems to bother with.
Well made, and clearly designed rather than moulded at random. It is firmer than the pillow I came from — comfortable now, but I would call it supportive rather than soft.
63 by 40 does not swamp the bed. The contour cover that comes with it is far better than trying to force a standard case over the shape.
I bought it partly because the website told me what it does not do. The pillow matches the description exactly, which is rarer than it should be.
A normal pillow is one flat block, the same height everywhere. This one is moulded into five areas — a recess for your head, a band that supports your neck, a raised arch for the curve behind it, a cut-out for your shoulder and lowered wings for your arm — and it has two different working heights depending on which edge you use.
Use the taller edge, 11 cm, when you sleep on your side: it fills the wider gap between your shoulder and your ear. Use the shorter edge, 9 cm, when you sleep on your back. Most people settle on one within the first week.
Probably, yes. A contoured pillow holds your head in a fixed position, and if you have spent years on a flat one it takes a few nights to stop noticing. Give it a week before you decide.
Unzip the cover and machine wash it. Do not wash the foam core — memory foam holds water and will not dry properly. Wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap if you need to, and let it air dry completely before use.
Memory foam holds more heat than down or feather. The cover is a breathable knit, which helps, but if you sleep very hot this is worth knowing before you buy rather than after.
Memory foam softens over time. Expect two to three years of proper support with normal use, and replace it when it stops springing back.
