It’s easy to focus solely on a mattress when upgrading your sleep space, but pillows also play an important role in providing comfort and support. Like mattresses, pillows come in a variety of styles, shapes, sizes, and materials. Finding a model compatible with your sleep style can lead to better sleep quality.

In this video, we’ll discuss how a pillow’s loft, firmness, and materials influence the feel and performance of a pillow. We’ll also cover how sleep position, body type, and health factors affect a pillow’s performance so you can find an ideal pillow based on your needs and preferences.

Down is also very cruel. Ducks are kept confined in cages and then held down and their feathers ripped from their skin over and over again. There are great micro fibre alternatives.

Great info, but the delivery is really creepy with the scripted speech and constant lack of eye contact

How can you measure the LOFT you need to get a good alignment?

Which shredded latex pillow are you referring to that you take everywhere?

Having them look not directly at the camera is distracting.

Silk is very cruel. Silkworms are literally boiled for silk. Not necessary.

OMG! These guys are reading right from the teleprompter and not even trying to hide it! It’s very distracting while trying to watch the video!
