FAQs
- Which pillow suits which sleeping position?
- Side sleepers need a firm, deep pillow to fill the shoulder gap; back sleepers a medium profile; front sleepers a soft, shallow one. Fill type matters less than loft matching your position.
- How often should pillows be replaced?
- Every 2–3 years for synthetic fills, longer for quality down or latex. The fold test: fold the pillow in half — if it doesn't spring back, it's done supporting your neck.
