Good evening, TD!

Looking for a new cooling / memory foam pillow.

Dream Cloud pillow was recommended by a friend, but they're out of stock.

Thanks and have a great weekend!

We hate Temperpedic mattresses but, they do make really good pillows. Kind of expensive but, they have the same warranty as the mattresses. If they start to dip, you’ll get a new one.

I have a king size version of that pillow and I like it but it’s so heavy it’s hard to sleep with because I’m a very mobile sleeper. Would maybe work better for a stationary sleeper but I don’t use it anymore.

That being said, if I had that in my pillow fighting younger days, I wouldn’t have a surviving sibling or cousin.

Tried My Pillow, hated it. Wife got me a Coop for father's day, it is definitely the best pillow I've had. They have a cool version.

Just spent a lot of time researching and trying pillows out after losing my favorite pillow at a hotel. It's a very personal and subjective thing. Plenty of great pillows out there, but you'll have to try them yourself. What sucks is there's not a lot of brick and mortar places to actually feel pillows now that BB&B is gone. Some of the mattress stores have good options to try, but I can't stand a salesman hovering over me while I try pillows out.

I ended up liking the coop (shredded memory foam) and a malouf (doughy, firmer feel) the most. Using the malouf to lay my head on and the coop to hug when I sleep on my side. The coop (among others in this category) comes with an extra bag of stuffing so you can customize how full it is for your preferred firmness level.

I love alternative pillows at Costco. Their selection of foam/gel pillows are way too stiff though. For $25 you can go through them and get new ones when need be. Not sure if you would want to try that?

We also have a Tempurpedic that's nice, but I think it's also as mentioned above that it's a personal preference. You would have to try them all out and see.

A lot of newer mattress companies give you chances to try out their products for at least 100 days with free returns before that. Maybe look that route?

You’re going to have to stop stripping down to your skivies and checking to see which pillows fit “between your knees” the best.

I really liked the coop because you can adjust it yourself. Plus they give you so much extra material that when my wife bought hers we had enough material for 3 pillows

When our pillows start getting flat I I make the seam on one edge and stuff it with filling from another unused pillow and sew seam back up. Works great and did this several times. Better than high end $$ pillows at Macy’s. I have memory pillows but just don’t like them & use for guest bedrooms.

I have one of these, Yourzzz. Used to have occasional issues with a "crick" in my neck either full blown or just starting. Nothing since getting one of these.

It is an adjustable foam pillow. I found it pretty stiff full and though the directions on the website said a I needed more filling, I actually took some out and it has been a perfect pillow ever since. I could stand for it to stay cooler longer but still pretty good.

Great pillow, will buy again.
