Hello! I am looking for some recommendations for one of your pillows. I got a brand new latex mattres from DLX guys and obviously wanted some quality pillows.
My wife likes firmer, more elevated pillows, whilst I like the complete opposite. But I might be choosing wrong since I usually wake up with headaches and neck pains.
I would love to get one of your pillows, I just dont know which one. Thanks in advance for the help!
Hello KrillinM,
Thank you for the question!
I know we have a lot of pillows to choose from and so it gets confusing.
I love to recommend adjustable pillows because they have a zipper so that you can add or take away fill.
The Obasan Wool pillow is a pillow that is both firm and supportive. I’ve had one of these for almost 5 years. It takes a small amount of maintenance - I put it in the sun twice a year and reach inside and fluff up the wool which softens it up again. The pillow is adjustable.
Obasan also makes a shredded latex pillow which is more squishable and probably has a little bit less loft to it - if you like a flatter pillow, that might be one to go for. That is also adjustable.
To help make sense, we have an article that provides more details about the various types of pillows.
I’m hoping @Maverick will chime in also - he has quite the collection of pillows and I believe he has an article on here about pillow choice as well.
Please feel free to respond with any specific questions you have, and I will do my best to answer.
Katie
I have the same issue with my wife so we have our High Profile Classic Talalay pillow on her side and I love the Low Profile version - Talalay Latex Pillows, Latex Pillows
Thanks for the prompt response! I ended up getting the buckwheat hull pillows, but thanks for the info!
I ended up getting the buckwheat pillows from The Clean Bedroom guys so I will try those. But thanks, either way!
I tried one of those and hated it, too noisy and just didn’t work so I hope you have better success.
That’s good - a lot of people like them. Most are adjustable, so if you need to adjust the firmness, you can add or take away filling.
An update on the pillows: just got the buckwheat pillows (medium sized) and they are so comically small! I thought it was for kids! It’s a shame I’m unable to return them so I might be stuck with them. 100% my fault for not checking the dimensions of it. I ordered the medium thinking it was a queen sized pillow
