Key takeaways
- Hotel and guest-room pillows vary in height, so a pillow you have already adjusted gives you a familiar fit.
- The Yourzzz pillow measures about 25 x 17 in (64 x 44 cm). It is a bed pillow, not a compact neck pillow, so it takes up room in your luggage.
- You order first. After delivery, the calculator tells you how much filling to remove.
Why bring your own pillow on a trip?
A pillow that is too high or too low leaves a gap, or a bend, between your shoulder, neck and mattress. In a hotel you do not choose that height. Bringing a pillow you have already set up for your height, weight, sleeping position and mattress firmness removes one variable. The hotel mattress may still feel different from yours. For more on how position and fit work together, see our Yourzzz sleep guide.
Is the Yourzzz pillow a neck pillow for planes?
No. It is a bed pillow, so it suits hotel rooms, guest rooms and rentals better than an upright seat. We do not claim that any pillow prevents stiffness on a trip. If neck pain keeps coming back or comes with numbness, see a healthcare provider.
How do you adjust the Yourzzz pillow?
- Order the pillow. You do not need to measure anything first.
- Use the calculator. When the pillow has arrived, enter your height (inches), weight (lbs), sleeping position (side, back or stomach) and mattress firmness (soft, medium or firm).
- Remove the filling. Take out the recommended amount with a kitchen scale. The calculator also shows the final weight of the pillow. Without a scale, a 200 ml (6.8 fl oz) glass holds about 50 g (1.8 oz) of filling.
- Keep the rest. Store the extra filling in the storage bag so you can adjust again later.
The storage bag also works as a bag for traveling with the pillow.
