How to Choose the Right Pillow

Down Pillows

When buying a down pillow, it all comes down to comfort and the height you prefer.
Higher pillows usually have more filling and often contain more feathers, giving them greater loft and firmness.
Flatter pillows, on the other hand, tend to contain more down. This makes them softer, lighter, and more breathable.

Down pillows are everyday items and should be washed and replaced more often than duvets.
Down filling naturally loses volume and bounce over time, and this happens faster in pillows than in duvets.
A pillow should be replaced as soon as it no longer offers proper support.
How quickly this happens depends on how much you sweat at night, whether you go to bed with damp hair, and how often the pillow has been washed.

Fibre-Filled Pillows

Fibre pillows are also all about comfort and the level of support you need. The amount of filling determines the pillow’s height.
Like down pillows, fibre pillows are considered consumables. They should be washed regularly and replaced more frequently than duvets.
Once the filling loses its bounce and the pillow no longer supports your head and neck properly, it’s time for a new one.

To make your choice easier, we have created a comfort guide:
You can choose between low, medium, or high pillows. All depending on your needs and sleeping habits.

When Did You Last Replace Your Pillow?

Did you know that the average pillow only lasts two to three years?

If your pillow has gone flat or no longer supports your head properly, it’s time for an upgrade.

Caring for Your Pillow

Our pillows can be washed at 60°C and should ideally be cleaned two to four times a year.
Many washing machines and dryers now offer special settings for down-filled items.

Always use an enzyme-free detergent to protect the quality of the down or fibre filling.

Drying Tip for Down Pillows

Dry with a few tennis balls in the dryer. This helps keep the filling fluffy and evenly distributed.

Storage & Extra Protection

Store duvets and pillows in a breathable space, and ideally in fabric storage bags.
Avoid airtight plastic bags to prevent moisture build-up.
For longer-lasting freshness, use a pillow protector underneath your pillowcase.
It shields against moisture and stains and can also be washed at 60°C.
