Why Buy A TEMPUR® Pillow?
How To Find The Best Pillow For You
What type of pillows are there?
There are many types of pillows out there filled with a variety of materials including duck or goose feather, hollowfibre or even standard memory, but there is only one TEMPUR® – the original viscoelastic material based on a development by NASA to cushion pilots against the rigors of test flight and certified by the Space Foundation.
Why choose a TEMPUR® Pillow?
TEMPUR® Sleep Scientists take their pillows as seriously as they do their TEMPUR® mattresses. Quickly realising that everyone is unique, they developed a wide range of bed pillows to meet different personal sleeping requirements. From classic rectangular, loose filled pillow cushions to ergonomic moulded pillows, TEMPUR® pillows are filled with pressure relieving TEMPUR® Material. Except for the TEMPUR® Down Luxe model which contains an innovative blend of traditional down with TEMPUR® Material, our pillows are feather-free. All are designed to offer optimal head and neck support, so you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
How to choose the right pillow for you.
The best starting point when buying a new pillow is to focus on the position you find it easiest to fall asleep in. Do you drop off more quickly when you lay on your front? Back? Or side? Which ever it is, it is likely your body unconsciously adopts the most comfortable position for your head, neck and shoulders. The more aligned they are, the better your quality of sleep.
That said, there is no hard and fast rule about what works best because everyone’s body shape is unique. The information below is general guidance which we hope will point you in the right direction.
What pillow is best for a front sleeper?
Abdominal sleepers generally find soft to medium pillows aid natural spine alignment because they do not raise the head too much. Sleepers with a larger, deeper body shape, however, may still find a firmer pillow works better for them. In some cases tummy sleepers find using an additional pillow beneath their hips eases lumbar discomfort. The depth and size of an extra pelvic support pillow depends every much on the user’s shape, size and weight.
What sort kind of mattress works best for front sleepers?
Preventing your spine from sinking too low into your mattress is an important consideration. Stomach sleepers often chose a medium to firmer level of support in their mattress to avoid unconscious spinal over-arching if the feel is too soft. If the mattress is too hard it can have the opposite effect of pushing against the spine’s natural curvature. This is one reason why TEMPUR® offer a 100 night trial when you buy a mattress direct so you can ensure you are getting the best night’s sleep.
What pillow is best for a back sleeper?
Back sleepers often opt for medium to firmer feel pillows which minimise neck craning while keeping the head gently cradled for relaxing sleep. Keeping the head in a neutral or level position is key to avoiding discomfort. View options for pillows for back sleepers.
What are the best mattresses for back sleepers?
To keep the spine aligned, back sleepers often find medium to firm mattresses provide the support they need. When you buy direct our 100 night home trial allows to you find out which mattress works best for you. Love it or send it back.
What pillow is best for a side sleeper?
Side sleepers may benefit most from medium or medium firm pillows which support the neck arch between their shoulders and head. Comfort, however, is a matter of personal preference. All TEMPUR® pillows are engineered to maintain the natural curve of the head, neck and spine alignment, delivering that so-important pressure relief. View options for pillows for side sleepers.
What mattress is best for a side sleeper?
Most adults tend sleep in the foetal position. A soft to medium mattress often works well with this medium to medium firm pillow/position combination. Quality sleep is an investment in your health and wellbeing. Our 100 night home trial gives you time to ensure you have made the right choice.
How many TEMPUR® pillows should I sleep with?
When you have decided on the TEMPUR® pillow which best matches your sleeping habits and comfort requirements, you may well be wondering how many pillows you think you need? Many people opt for two, however no hard and fast advice exists. At TEMPUR® we suggest initially you go for one. It may take your posture a few nights to adjust, but eventually you should begin to experience the pressure-relieving benefits synonymous with TEMPUR® Material and enjoy quality sleep.

How do you care for a TEMPUR® pillow?

While you have the pillow cover in the wash, a spare may come in handy so you can continue to get quality sleep. We have extra covers available if you wish to order one.
Cover washing aside, our TEMPUR® Original Ergonomic Pillows require no maintenance other than the sleeper uses them positioned with the deeper ridge tucked into their neck to aid spine alignment.
Our classic rectangular shaped loose filled pillows such as the TEMPUR® Comfort Pillow Cloud and TEMPUR® Comfort Pillow Original are also easy to maintain. Simply shake, fluff and puff daily, just before you put your head down to sleep for maximum comfort.
