The bedding industry is a massive multi-billion dollar one. It invests in incredible amounts of R&D to make soft beds, memory-foam lumbar-supporting mattresses, and pillows that adjust to the curvature of your neck… but they’ve not been able to crack one problem. Maintenance.
The expensive pillow I use comes made from memory-foam which can’t be washed. It has accumulated dirt and skin-cells from months over months of sleeping, and all I can do is leave it in the sun every couple of weeks to make sure that it gets aired out and doesn’t become musty. This, unfortunately, is the case with all pillows. Whether they’re made of memory foam, cotton, or down, pillows aren’t washable, which means they become breeding-houses for germs over days, weeks, months, and years of use. That’s where the Cotton Shower pillow has a competitive edge. Made using four separate pillows, and filled with a silicone-coated polyester microfiber that’s water-resistant, making the Cotton Shower pillow machine-washable. The short-fiber polyester is hypoallergenic, breathable, and wicks moisture. It also doesn’t clump up or get compressed, so your pillow remains soft and fluffy, even after multiple washes.
The Cotton Shower pillow comes made from four separate pillow modules that come together to form the final pillow. This segregation not only helps the Cotton Shower retain its shape after being washed, but also aids you in sleeping better. The four individual pillows are designed to help you sleep both on your back as well on your side. With a hollow, donut-esque design on one side and a more fluffy design on the other side, the Cotton Shower pillow can be used on its front or its back, depending on how you’re sleeping.
The Cotton Shower pillow’s outer casing comes with anti-bacterial properties too. Coated with natural phytoncide oil scent and white clay, the pillows smell fresh and resist bacterial growth. White clay, often used in cosmetic products, is easy on the skin too, making it hypoallergenic.
Aside from being designed for absolute comfort, the Cotton Shower pillow’s greatest achievement is its ability to be washed, dried, and maintained. Comfort doesn’t just come from softness, but comes from cleanliness too. Designed to repel bacterial growth when used, and with the ability to be placed in the washing-machine periodically to keep your pillow as good as new, the Cotton Shower pillow manages to achieve a milestone that not many other pillows have… It fits in the elusive intersection between cost-effectiveness, comfort, and the ability to be cleaned!

99% of the impurities were removed by processing the fabric using white clay, which is also used in skin care products. This fabric, which is the result of years of research, has antibacterial capabilities which can help relieve symptoms of skin rash and atopy.

Corgis are very cool dogs. They are super short, have big fluffy butts, and can run really fast. If you are a fan of the corgi and ever thought what you really need to keep warm in the office is a toasty corgi butt to sit on, here is your chance.
This is a Corgi Butt Heated Pillow that you can plug into your USB port to keep your back or butt warm. It’s a great way to warm yourself in the office without turning up the heat, making your co-workers want you dead.
The heating element doesn’t run directly from the USB port, it runs from a battery that charges via USB. A full 2 hour charge is good for 4-6 hours of toasty corgi sitting. ThinkGeek has the Corgi Butt Heated Pillow for $24.99.
Scientifically speaking, a soft pillow can be relaxing… and a hug can release incredible amounts of Oxytocin, or the feel-good hormone. Combine a pillow and a hug, and you’ve got the Sentim, a pillow with arms that doesn’t just relax you, but comforts you as well!
Sentim’s unusual, elongated shape lets it be used in a variety of situations. It works as a regular pillow, as a body pillow, a neck pillow, a side-cushion, or even a therapeutic waist-bound cushion. Much like a beanbag doesn’t have a definite user-posture in mind, the Sentim allows you to use its flexible arms and comforting central-cushion to mold it in a way that makes you feel comfortable. Lean back, forwards, sideways, or just sit normally, the Sentim gives you cushioning, stability, and a sense of calmness. Its two arms come with interlocking clasps at the end that wrap around your waist, shoulder, or neck, mimicking an embrace and helping fight stress and nervousness by boosting the release of endorphins and oxytocin to make you naturally feel confident and happy. They even double up as an extra pair of arms that you can either use to prop up a tablet/laptop, a bowl of popcorn, or just use as armrests!
The Sentim pillow comes with a breathable, stretchable Lycra outer body and has a micro air bead filling on the inside, giving it the correct balance between softness and sturdiness. Playing the role of many cushions (and even mimicking the embrace of a human or a plush toy), the Sentim can be used anywhere and anyhow for both physical and emotional comfort. While we don’t particularly recommend replacing the compact travel-pillow with the Sentim (given its size), a Sentim at home or at work may just be the perfect, plush, pliable pillow to ease the mind and the body!

The pillow is a very tricky product that isn’t given much thought. Some people prefer hard pillows, some soft. Others find their heads become sweaty because of a lack of ventilation. Besides, the pillow sees so much of head movement, where we transition from sleeping on our backs to our sides, that it’s impossible to believe that one small cushion of cotton or foam can fulfill all those aforementioned needs.
The Cubes however takes on that challenge. For one, it isn’t one single pillow, but a series of connected foam cubes that together form the pillow. The air-gaps between the cubes allow for ventilation, making sure you don’t wake up with sweaty ears or neck in the middle of the night. Besides, each individual cube compresses when you rest your head against it, allowing you to sleep comfortably in any position as the pillow takes the shape of your head with ease. The Cubes also comes with two sides, a softer pink side and a stiffer grey side. You can easily swap pillow stiffnesses by simply flipping it over. What’s more, aside from the ventilation aspect, the Cubes is probably the first pillow to integrate graphene into the foam, allowing it to have anti-bacterial and anti-odor properties. Like I said earlier. The pillow is a tricky product… it shouldn’t just be a rectangular piece of cotton or foam. It should be much more!

When you have a newborn, it’s all about safety. You have to go over the house with a fine-tooth comb and make sure that all of the dangers are gone. That means stuff like covering electrical sockets, padding sharp table corners or getting rid of them, removing small choking hazards from their reach and of course, for the love of God people, covering up any Sarlacc pits. Did you know that Sarlacc pits account for numerous infant injuries every year? The only reason we end up saving these kids at all is because it takes a thousand years for the creature that dwells within to digest those rugrats.
Anyway, here’s a safe alternative – a Sarlacc pit pillow and lounger for your newborns and toddlers.
We’ve been assured it’s totally safe, and stuffed with polyester instead of actual monsters, but you can’t help but fear for your kid when you see them sleeping among those teeth. The center ring measures about 13″ in diameter and the whole thing has a 36″ circumference. It sits 6-8″ high, and has carrying handles for easy transport and storage.
Sarlacc pits just got so much more cozy, soft and cuddly. Did you ever think that your child would be laying in one and not screaming? Grab one from Bed Hog Shop over on Etsy for $138.
If you’ve ever tried to lay your head on a pillow while wearing glasses, you know how much of a pain it can be. And if you don’t wear glasses, then I’m happy for you, it must be nice to have functioning eyes.
For everyone else there’s LaySee, a pillow with contoured edges that allow you to lay your pretty head to rest while wearing glasses. I’m not saying it’s a good idea to sleep with glasses on (unless you’re trying to read your mind), but if you just want to rest your head and watch some Stranger Things then maybe you could use a LaySee Pillow.
It costs $79, but it’s made of premium materials. Now I just wonder if it work with people who wear contacts.
