Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I replace my pillow?
Most pillows should be replaced every 1-2 years. Memory foam pillows can last 2-3 years with proper care.
What pillow height is right for me?
It depends on your sleep position. Side sleepers need higher loft (5-7"), back sleepers need medium (4-5"), and stomach sleepers need low (3" or less).
Are premium pillows worth it?
Not always. Focus on materials and support that match your sleep style rather than marketing.
How do I wash my pillow?
Check the care label. Most memory foam pillows can't be machine washed, but covers usually can. Down and synthetic pillows are often machine washable.
