╔ Pillows by Helix Sleep ╗

Helix offers two pillows designed for nightly sleeping, along with a specialty wedge pillow.

The Helix Pillow is a customizable pillow featuring a gel microfiber core and an insert that is also constructed from gel microfiber and polyester; the inserts can be added or removed to increase or decrease the loft, respectively. The cover, which is made of cotton, also has 1 1/4″ gussets for easier loft adjustments.

The Helix Ultra-Cool Pillow is filled with a microfiber down-alternative, while the cotton cover is given Helix’s phase change treatment to help it regulate temperature effectively. The Ultra-Cool Pillow also has a higher price-point than the Helix Pillow.

The Helix Down & Feather Pillow is constructed with three inner chambers: the middle chamber contains a 5-95 feather and down blend for extra stability, while the two outer chambers contain plush, 550-fill power white down fill. The pillow’s cover is made of cotton-cambric fabric. It is a medium-loft pillow; due to its exceptional softness, specific loft dimensions depend on the sleeper’s position and head size. This is a soft pillow.

The Helix Wedge Pillow is a gel memory foam and polyfoam pillow designed for placement beneath the legs for extra lower back support. It can also serve as an elevating neck pillow for people with acid reflux or those who snore due to sleep apnea. The Wedge Pillow measures 10″ thick and has a cover made of rayon and polyester.

The Helix Pillow is optimal for sleepers whose loft preferences vary from night to night. The removable inserts can be used to create low-, medium-, and high-loft settings, making the pillow suitable for most sleep positions and weight groups. The Ultra-Cool Pillow is beneficial for those who tend to sleep hot, since the down-alternative fill is breathable and the phase change material provides very good temperature regulation. The Down & Feather Pillow also sleeps fairly cool, due in part to its cotton cover.

Helix offers free shipping to customers in the contiguous U.S. Each pillow is backed by a 100-night sleep trial as well as a 1-year limited warranty. Helix pillows require spot-cleaning, and should never be washed in machines.

I used to only sleep on down but tired of not being able to wash the pillows. I like the fluffability and comfort of a down pillow but have found that "My Pillows" or the Eli & Elm pillows are the best for me now. I get the fluffability and the ability to wash them as often as i like. Thanks for another great review...this looks like a great pillow for anyone who just has to sleep on down.

I like the feel and sensation of a down pillow compressing under your neck. I realize they are expensive, but I think you get what you pay for with down. Thanks for the review.

[jenniferphillips]

These sound so scrumptious, I love down and get my best sleep with down pillows, nothing compares to them for me and these sound and look like I would absolutely love them.

[miss_amytou_]

Looks like a perfect pillow for me. I like the feather down pillows!

[angrulz]

I love down pillows! This one looks super comfy. Nice and plump too.

[rosieritter]

These videos are so tempting. I've never owned a down pillow, but after this review and a few others, I totally want one! Biggest problem is choosing which one!!

[fisayooluleye]

Thanks for the review, looks like a solid pillow

[lisahayes]

Looks comfy haven't tried feather down in long time thanks for review, always on lookout for great pillow

[robinweidner]

I am a big fan of Helix. I hope to own a Helix someday so I am not shocked that they make a great pillow. I have never had a down pillow but it looks like it might hold up to my head as I sleep on my side. Its hard to find a nice soft lofty pillow that will support my neck with out hurting my ear while I sleep. Thanks for all the reviews.

[mattromeo]

Looks very cozy & comfy! Curious to know how they compare to Helix’s Dream Pillows?

[robinweidner]

I really have been drawn to the Helix brand. Not a fan of Down pillows but would be willing to try one.

[sethkarim]

I’m not really a fan of feather and down pillows. I’m more of a memory foam and latex kinda guy. I like that they are more responsive and have better neck support to keep you spine aligned. All though i don’t like the Helix pillow, i love their beds

[Aphexnify]

I like that it has 3 different chambers that hold different fills. Having the middle chamber filled for stability is a nice touch. I start the night with my head on the pillow but always end up hugging it by morning time. I'm a fan of down pillows and the way they feel. I also like that it's a medium loft pillow.

[anthonysolhjoo]

Thanks for the review! Still on the hunt for my perfect pillow 😣

[serkjen]

I'm a lightweight, side sleeper so I think this pillow would work nicely for me. I like being able to mold my pillow, so that is a plus as well. It is nice that the down is responsibly sourced - that is so important as I wouldn't consider a down pillow otherwise.

[Acethebully]

Looks comfy, but to be adjusting every time you move it can be annoying. I move alot in my bed. I have problems with my arms and legs getting numb. having sleep apnea as well I won't be suitable for me.

[flynnaz]

Looks very well built, the moldability is a great plus. The only downside is it seems like it takes a little work to make it comfortable.

[robinweidner]

I do have a question about your giveaways, How long do they go before you pick winners. Because its been 2 months since you announced your latest giveaway. I didnt know if its after so many review post or if you go by months. I LOVE Watching your reviews. I wish you were able to post more

[rm-dctx]

Looks like a great pillow. I like the 3 channel design and the 6" loft. I'll be taking a serious look at all the details of the Helix Dream Pillow.

[robinweidner]

I really like the beds Helix offers but I am not a fan Of down or Feather, I prefer something that keeps a loft better, but I do like its soft on my ear. I am side sleeper so I dont want one that seems dense in hard as you sleep or goes to flat.
