Key takeaways
- Pillow height (loft) depends on your sleeping position, mattress firmness and body size.
- A pillow that is too high or too low leaves a gap or a bend between your shoulder, neck and mattress.
- With Yourzzz you order first, then adjust the filling at home. You can try it for 100 nights.
What matters when you choose a pillow?
Start with how you sleep. Side sleepers have the largest gap between head and mattress and usually need the most loft. Back sleepers need less. Stomach sleepers usually need the least. Our guides for side sleepers, back sleepers and stomach sleepers go into more detail.
Your mattress changes the picture. On a soft mattress your shoulder sinks in, so you often need a lower pillow. On a firm mattress you often need a higher one. Your height and weight play a role too. You would not buy shoes without knowing your size, and a store that sells one pillow size rarely has yours. More background is in our sleep guide.
What can a pillow not do?
A pillow gives your head and neck support. It does not treat pain or stiffness. If you have pain that lasts or keeps coming back, see a healthcare provider.
How is the Yourzzz pillow adjusted?
The pillow measures about 25 x 17 in and fits a standard US pillowcase. It is filled with premium memory foam flakes and polyester fibers. Removing filling makes it lower and softer. Learn more about the adjustable loft pillow.
- Order the pillow. It costs $89, and when you buy 2 you get 10% off. Shipping is free.
- Answer four questions. Once the pillow has arrived, enter your height, weight, sleeping position and mattress firmness in the calculator.
- Remove the filling. Take out the recommended amount, using a kitchen scale.
- Keep the rest. Store the extra filling in the storage bag so you can adjust again later.
The algorithm was developed by Dutch physiotherapist Thijs van der Hilst.
