How Many Pillows Should You Sleep With?

Broadly speaking, sleep experts generally advise that you should sleep with 1 to 2 pillows under your head at most. With that said, there are a few considerations you must make when deciding exactly how many pillows would be best for you. It’s primarily important to take into account your typical sleeping position; this greatly influences which parts of your body need the most support, thus determining the ideal number and placement of the pillows. A further consideration is the size and type of the pillows in question; these factors impact the pillow’s supportive qualities, which also influences how many of them you should use.

What Are the Benefits of Down Pillows?

The main benefits of down pillows include their softness and malleability, heat-retention, and heat-regulating properties. They adapt to the shape and temperature of your body to keep you comfortable and supported to the optimal degree. Down pillows are also suitable for use all year round, are more hygienic, and are more durable and longer lasting than other types of pillows.

How Should I Maintain My Pillows?

To prolong the life of your pillows, it is important to maintain them properly. This includes regularly fluffing and rotating them, washing them every 3-6 months, and using a pillowcase or pillow protector to prevent stains and dirt build-up.

Can I Wash Goose Down Pillows?

Not only will machine washing keep your pillows clean, it will also revive the texture and shape of the filling. Following the correct washing and drying process will leave you with fresh, fluffy pillows that feel as good as new.
