How to choose the right pillow

Good sleep is essential to waking up refreshed and rested. Choosing the right pillow plays an important role in achieving a comfortable and supportive sleeping position. We at Annas beds & Interior understand the importance of a good pillow and want to help you find the perfect pillow that suits you. Here are some points to consider when choosing the right pillow:

What sleeping style do you have?

Think about how you usually sleep. Are you a side sleeper, back sleeper or maybe a stomach sleeper? This affects the type of pillow that is most suitable for you. For example, a thicker pillow may be good for side sleepers while a thinner pillow may work better for back or stomach sleepers.

Which filling should you have?

There are different types of fillings to choose from, such as spring, synthetic material or memory foam. Each type has its own advantages. Feather pillows often provide a more luxurious and fluffy feel, while synthetic materials can be good for allergy sufferers. Memory foam adapts to your body and provides extra support.

What support does the pillow provide?

The pillow should provide enough support to keep your neck and spine in a neutral position. Test the pillow by lying on it and see if it supports your head and neck in a comfortable way. A pillow that is too hard or too soft can lead to discomfort and stiffness.

What size should the pillow be?

The size of the pillow is important for optimal comfort. Common sizes include standard, queen or king size. Choose a pillow that fits your bed size and your personal preference.

How easy is the cushion to maintain?

Consider how easy it is to clean and maintain the pillow. Some cushions can be machine washed while others may need to be dry cleaned. It is important to choose a pillow that is easy to keep clean and fresh. Also read our guide on how to wash your pillows .
