Choosing the Perfect Pillow

Here's everything you need to know to build your best bed ever.

Choosing the Perfect Pillow

The average person spends 26 years of their life sleeping. That’s a lot of dreams, snores, sleep-ins, and snooze-button hits. So, it’s vital to make sure you’re spending that quarter century with the best in bedding.

While the wrong pillow is unlikely to cause you harm, it can certainly affect the quality of your sleep. At the minor end, you might find yourself tossing and turning, unable to find a comfortable position. As people between the ages of 18 and 64 need to sleep for 7 or more hours every day – and probably don’t get to bed as early as they should – anything that prevents you from falling asleep quickly should be addressed. At the more serious end, the wrong pillow can put strain on your neck and spine, leading to poor quality sleep and discomfort (like back pain and neck pain) in the morning.  

There are more than 80 different sleep disorders, with 30% of adults experiencing insomnia. From drowsiness and gritty eyes to difficulty concentrating and mood swings, there’s nothing good about not getting enough sleep. Your first line of defence against fatigue is a pillow in the right fill and height for your sleeping style.  

Complete your bed with a plush mattress topper and the perfect quilt for your climate and start sleeping well.

Types of Pillows

What is the best pillow for you? If you’re on the hunt for the best pillow, the first factor to consider is your filling. Depending on your sleep style and needs, the right pillow will vary. We recommend tailoring your pillow to each sleeper, rather than buying the same pillow for the whole family. Discover our huge range of the best pillows in Australia:
