Then, as I took a closer look, I also noticed a small remote control, that housed the smart technology, discreetly tucked away in the corner of the pillow.Īfter a thorough inspection, I decided to download the app so I can get this bad boy working. The first thing I noticed was how ZEEQ resembles the kind of luxury that you can only afford past the age of 30- plush, white and big. ![]() It was an inevitable divorce that started when I unboxed the smart pillow. ZEEQ Smart Pillow, A Comfy Addition to our Smart HomeĪs a proud owner of ZEEQ, I am excited to share that my experience so far has led to me parting ways with my two John Lewis pillows. The pillow comes with a white, organic-cotton cover that can be washed with your regular laundry, or you can upgrade to a knitted cover that comes in several colors for an additional $125.With many intelligent accessories now available for the smart home, the Amazon Echo is no longer the only must-have device there are now other tech favourites like the ZEEQ smart pillow. Even with daily use and constant twisting and bending, the Cuddler’s buoyancy has held up. Bouncy and responsive, the Melofoam is breathable, naturally weighted, and provides continuous support without losing its shape over time. But it’s the squishy Melofoam material that really sets this body pillow apart. The cylindrical, noodlelike Cuddler is extra long at 75 inches with a uniform eight-inch diameter that takes up far less space in my shared bed than other body pillows on the market. The Bearaby Cuddler, which the brand sent to me to test out, is my favorite body pillow of those I’ve tried so far. Schuler tells us side sleepers should focus on having proper support not only under their head but also between their knees to “keep the spine in a neutral position, reduce malalignment, and relieve pressure placed on the neck and back.” While body pillows are often thought of as a pregnancy essential, they can also provide head-to-toe support for anyone who needs it. And as a side sleeper myself, I’ve tested several pillows to find the best ones that meet our experts’ criteria and included my favorites below.įill type: Single piece of Melofoam | Loft: Medium | Firmness: Medium-firm | Care instructions: Machine-washable cover ![]() We spoke to Cushner, Foley, Toussaint-Keshinro, and three more experts about what to look for in pillows for side sleepers and which ones they recommend. “Side sleepers usually need thicker pillows to fill the space between their head and neck, but a pillow that is too thick may cause neck pain and put pressure on the spine,” Foley explains. Rennes Toussaint-Keshinro, a chiropractor and mental-health coach, tells us that a side sleeper should “maintain a neutral position/posture of the back,” which means your pillow should lift your head high enough that it lines up with your neck and your spine but not so high that it puts painful stress on that area.Ĭushner and Foley also say that the loft, or height, of your pillow, is more important if you sleep on your side. But to achieve the perfect spine, neck, and head alignment, choosing the right pillow is key. Side-sleeping is “one of the healthiest sleeping positions because of its ability to improve spinal alignment, reduce the risk of snoring, and reduce back pain,” Cushner tells us. But side-sleeping is more than a comfortable way to cozy up according to Keith Cushner, a product expert at, and his colleague Logan Foley, a sleep-science coach and the managing editor at, it’s also good for your health. If you like sleeping on your side, you’re in good company - it’s the sleep position preferred by 60 percent of adults. ![]()
