Talk to me about pillows, 'cloud pillows' and more.

I am a side sleeper and have shoulder/neck problems so I bought an ikea pillow which was recommended - it is this one - ROSENSKÄRM Ergonomic pillow, side/back sleeper - IKEA

I think it helps.

I have always been fussy about my pillow, including taking pillows with me when I go away.

I've found recently that the only thing that works is a crappy pillow of a particular thickness, folded in half.

Doesn't it just spring back into its original shape though? You might staple it folded I suppose.

This particular pillow ain't springing anywhere.

I've just ordered the IKEA pillow mentioned in this thread. Anyone used a wedge pillow before and have one they care to recommend?

No, they're shit.

Just bought a couple of new memory foam pillows - one is a recommended best ‘budget’ pillow at £14.99 - Silentnight Airmax, the other was recommended as best overall, at a whopping £89 - a Panda London hybrid bamboo pillow. Will come back and review later in the week.
I thought that was an extravagant purchase for me, but then I saw that you can spend much much more on a pillow. Look at this one! A goose down pillow for a grand! eek:

All Seasons 100% Canadian Goose Down Superking Duvet - 13.5 Tog (4.5 + 9.0 Tog)

The fine, lightweight cotton casing of this duvet is filled with ethically sourced, premium Canadian Goose Down for a duvet that's lofty, light and soft. The high-quality super-sized down clusters recover quickly for that all-important plumpness.

The most expensive one I could find was approx £45k! £45,000! So dear, it appears to come in a security casket as if it’s a diamond tiara:

That's a duvet, but still a ridiculous price.
I have Hungarian goose down pillows and duvet. They cost nowhere near that.

Oops, there was a pillow on there for £1100 but the link I had was defunct - possibly it has sold out!

Not until somebody comes up with a more luxurious pillow.
