I might have adjusted to it but that smell was too gross. I fluffed it a bit to mix the filling and it helped but it had this weird consistency, probably due to the bounciness of the latex. Super firm in some areas and soft in others. When I got it, I took it out of the top case to check it out and it got white powder, which I assume is latex, all over my bed. Latex can smell weird but this was another level. Went right back.Įli and Elm Side Sleeper - this pillow could have been great but the drawbacks were too big. Well, the next one I got was even softer. So I returned this one and got another thinking I had a bad one. EDIT My mom got one of these too and kept complaining hers was too firm. I've stuck with it for over a month now, and I haven't returned it yet, but I'm not done looking. It works a little better when I sleeping on a wedge. But while my head and ears love it, my neck does not and I think it's because I need more loft, although tricks like putting a folded towel under it didn't help as much as I thought, so maybe it's a support issue.
It feels almost between latex and memory foam in the best way. It's soft enough that it doesn't cause ear pain and it doesn't get too hot. Tuft & Needle Foam Pillow - I wanted this one to work so bad. I gave it to my husband who is quite a bit larger than me, and it his favorite pillow. Also even with it seeming too soft, it made my ear hurt. So I exchanged it for a medium and it was way softer and I just could not get comfortable with it. It had a good level of firmness but was way to tall for my neck. Purple Harmony - I bought this at a Denver Mattress store and they only had the tall in stock and I wanted it right away. The core of it is pretty firm though and I got ear pain from it. I really liked the shoulder cutout and it was a good loft for me.
Therapedic Shoulder Contour Bed Pillow - This one wasn't terrible. Hurt my ear and just was not comfortable. I like it stayed cool and the level of neck support and that's it. Purple Pillow - Recommended by a friend who hated the COOP pillow. Also, even though I returned it a couple of months ago, I'm still finding filling all over my house from adjusting it all the time. If I put it at the support level I want, it's too tall. If I put it at the proper height, its too soft. The height to width ratio to get the support I need has changed. They only come in queen and king now, so I bought a queen, and its not the same at all. However, it got ruined when I washed it, so I bought a new one. Here is my review of several pillows I've tried so far.Ĭoop Eden - This pillow worked for me for a couple of years when I got in the standard size. I cover all my pillows in a silk pillowcase, too, so cover material isn't that important to me as long as I don't feel it through the cover. I would say it's still pretty soft though. I have a king-size soft-side waterbed (the kind of bed that is a foam frame with a water core) and a firm latex topper. This means super firm pillows don't work for me. I also have TMJ and am prone to ear pain at night. I have had neck issues for years, likely due to having a job where I'm at a desk all day. I sleep on my side mostly, though I do occasionally roll onto my back. Broad shoulders for my size from years of weight lifting, but not more broad than average. I'm in my early 40s, am 5'3.5", and about 135 lbs. I figured I should share my findings in case someone else finds them helpful. I've been lurking around here for months trying to find a pillow to help my neck, back and TMJ/ear pain issues.
