Pillows are an important part of your sleep routine — the right pillow can improve both your sleep and your wellbeing. So, how do you know which pillow is right for you? Once you find the perfect pillow, how should you care for it? Our bedding experts at Sleep Number weigh in.
When it comes to pillows, choosing the most comfortable option is easier said than done. It's more than a firm vs. fluffy debate; picking the perfect pillow is a personal decision based on the way you sleep and which gives you the best support. Simply put, a pillow provides optimal support to a sleeper from the shoulders up, while a mattress supports a sleeper from the shoulders down.
Find your perfect pillow by taking the Sleep Number® PillowFit® Quiz.
Ultimately, how comfortable a pillow feels has a lot to do with the shape, the fill and the way you sleep:
For side sleepers: a slightly thicker, firmer pillow is best. Shape: Contour, Curved or Ultimate with 2-3 inserts.
For stomach sleepers: a nearly flat, soft pillow is best. Shape: Classic or Ultimate with 1-2 inserts.
For back sleepers: a medium-thick pillow is best. Shape: Contour, Curved or Ultimate.
"Pillows are not one size fits all," says Sleep Number bedding expert, Christina Smida. "People don't realize that your sleeping position impacts the type of pillow you buy.”
