What Types of Pillows are There in Mattress Stores in San Diego?

You often need a good environment to get a good night’s sleep. If you find yourself getting up watery-eyed or if you have irregular sleep, your body could be signaling you to get a new pillow, (and a mattress maybe, but that’s a different story). There are no better sleeping accessories than a good pillow and a good mattress. You probably don’t know all the options you have for buying pillows in mattress stores in San Diego. So we want to present you with a rundown of the most popular.

Option 1: Synthetic pillows

Inexpensive, versatile, and easy to clean, synthetic pillows hold the biggest market share when it comes to pillows. What’s important to note is that these come in all degrees of quality and a low-end synthetic pillow may not give the best bang for the buck when you consider their short lifespan, (around 2 years), and the potentially hazardous chemicals they contain. On the minus side, they are also prone to clumping and don’t hold shape very well.

Option 2: Cotton pillows

A breathable and natural alternative to synthetic pillows, cotton-filled pillows are relatively cheap and easy to care for. They are also hypoallergenic and cooler than synthetic or memory foam pillows. When considering return on investment, you should take into account the fact that these pillows require regular refill and they will clump quickly.

Option 3: Down pillows

Want the most luxurious pillow? Down pillows are for those who love a soft touch. These pillows are universally loved, though some people are advised against sleeping on them. These include allergy sufferers and those who have neck pain issues. Overall, down pillows are durable, cool, quiet, and light. The level of support depends on the volume of the fill, which affects the price. Generally, these will be on the higher end of the price range.

Option 4: Buckwheat pillows

It’s been centuries since the Japanese discovered the beauty of sleeping on buckwheat hulls. Cool and airy, these pillows are easily malleable, but still provide great support. They are very durable and are well suited to all kinds of sleeping positions. A slight disadvantage is that these pillows rustle when shifted.

Option 5: Memory foam pillows

A favorite pillow of many, especially those who need superior neck and spine support. You should also know that these are best for back and side sleepers. The many advantages these pillows have are: durability, no clumping, low maintenance, contouring and good support. On the low side, they don’t ventilate well.

Option 6: Latex pillows

Latex is a natural alternative to memory foam. It’s also provides supreme pressure relief and contours nicely. You should be sure to get one that suits you, because its height is fixed and it can’t be adjusted. These pillows are also more breathable than memory foam. All-natural latex pillows are the healthiest choice – in addition to the listed benefits, they don’t need to be coated in flame retardants, (they’re naturally flame-resistant), and they are inhospitable to dust mites and mold.
