Moldability

Conforming
Pillows with certain types of fill will mold to the sleeper’s head, neck, and shoulders to alleviate tension and pains; other fill types do not conform as closely, and typically provide less pain and pressure relief.
The Sidney pillow is filled with a shredded foam blend which combined with the curved shape contours your head, and neck to relieve pain and promote proper spinal alignment
The Layla Pillow conforms very closely to alleviate discomfort and improve spinal alignment; the copper-infused cover also provides some level of pain relief.
Temperature Neutrality
Pillows may sleep hot, cold, or neutral, depending on the fill and cover materials.
The soft Bamboo rayon surface neutralizes excessive heat, allowing you to rest comfortably through the evening, while the pocket design improves airflow and breathability, letting you sleep cool.
The Layla Pillow offers strong air circulation and a breathable, copper-infused cover, both of which make the pillow fairly temperature neutral – especially when compared to other memory foam pillows.

Ease of Cleaning
Depending on the material composition, a pillow may be cleaned in a washer and dryer, or it may require hand washing, spot-cleaning, and/or dry-cleaning.
