Panda Hybrid Bamboo Pillow

Product Information

Where relevant, we also take into account other aspects including trial periods, washable covers and extra features – such as adjustable and ergonomic designs – all of which can play a part in our recommendations. It’s a little bit firmer than the Otty Deluxe, but it’s not so firm that it feels clinical, instead landing somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. It comes with an inbuilt protector, plus a soft, breathable and hypoallergenic bamboo cover (which can be washed at 40°C), which helps you to keep things fresher than washing your pillowcase alone . To say that snoring is inconvenient would be an understatement. After all, unlike with excess body heat, everyone in the room gets to suffer right alongside the snorer. However, with the right steps, stopping snoring is far from impossible. And with this new pillow technology, it's also rather easy. If you have a single or double bed, choose a standard-size pillow. If you have a king or super-king bed, you may want to consider a super-king pillow. Square pillows are typically used for decoration.

Pure feather pillows – as luxurious as the idea of pure feathers may sound, we’d avoid this type as those pesky feather quills seem to have a way of escaping and stabbing you in the face. It’s also worth noting they don’t offer the support and height needed for side sleepers. Plus, they can be noisy and don’t suit allergy sufferers. Key features – Filling:Goose down and feathers ; Cover:100% cotton cover (machine washable) Sizes:Standard size and king size And if that alone wasn't enough for you to fall asleep without issue, the pillow still has more to give. In a move that seems like it came out of a sci-fi movie, the Simba Hybrid Pillow is filled with soft little nanocubes. And this is significant for two main reasons.To remove smells, sprinkle the memory foam with baking soda and let it sit overnight or for at least 8 hours before vacuuming the baking soda away. Step 3: Finishing touches The pillow’s two polyester microfibre layers are encased in a soft padded pillowcase. With both layers inserted, the pillow has a good amount of loft, which is a good thing for side sleepers who need to support their head and shoulder (though we also found the pillow to be comfortable and supportive with just the one insert). While most of the pillows on our roundup have a machine washable cover, you might also be pleased to hear that this pillow – inserts and all – can be popped in the washing machine at a temperature up to 60°C. To me, Panda's new charcoal-based foam doesn't feel enormously different to other memory foam pillows I've tried, although that's not to say it's not effective. It's comfy and cool to lie on, and moulded nicely to my head shape. My main issue with this pillow is that it's just a bit too shallow for me. While it looks a fairly standard depth when it's sat on the bed, when pressure is applied it obviously sinks down to a lower height. Another appealing feature is the amount of choice you get when it comes to size and feel. It’s available in soft, soft/medium and medium/firm variants, as well as standard (50 x 75cm), superking (50 x 90cm) and square (65 x 65cm) sizes.

The position you sleep in will largely determine the type of pillow you need to keep your spine aligned nicely straight. When it comes to the Simba Hybrid Pillow, it can feel like you need a physics degree just to understand how it functions. And that's not a feeling you'd get from an average pillow. This is because the Simba Hybrid Pillow uses something called phase-change materials. And they patented it under the name of Simba Stratos technology. If we look at the Tesla Smart Pillow, it claims to be able to reach temperatures of up to 57 degrees Celsius, thanks to carbon fibre heating. And if you take a look at it, there's no doubt that it looks like it came from the future. So, if the right pillow for you has the ability to keep you extremely toast, this is ideal! The Panda Hybrid pillow boasts an impeccable build quality, with excellent attention to detail and thoughtful touches. To me, the memory foam feels similar to other memory foams I've tested, but that's not to say it's not effective. Although it is on the shallow side once it's compressed from your head (a personal thing, but something to be aware of if you're used to pillows with high loft) it cradles the head nicely and doesn't trap heat, either. The cover is a high point; the bamboo fabric is smooth and silky, with a pleasant amount of light quilting, and the ability to zip it off and wash it separately is always welcome.This new technology is a premium, soft mesh that goes around the pillow and helps to streamline the hot air flow from your body and away from your face. And for good measure, they also threw in a bamboo cover to make sure that none of that meticulously crafted breathability is lost to polyester. Simba Hybrid Pillow To ensure continued support and hygiene, experts recommend replacing your pillows every one to two years. But since you will get up close and personal with your pillow every night,a regular wash can also be necessary to ensure longevity. Spend some time looking for a new pillow and you'll soon realise there are a whole host of pillow fillings available. From hollowfibre to goose down, synthetic to natural, the array of terms and materials can fast become a little overwhelming.

Since memory foam is admittedly the most obvious case of technology upgrading the pillow industry, we wanted to give it special attention. For one, you might know that it was actually created for NASA! So, when you're sleeping on a memory foam pillow, you're quite literally sleeping like an astronaut.
