The Best Pillows for Every Sleep Style

Sleepy's Cool Pillow


The Sleepy's cool pillow is one of the best pillows for stomach sleepers struggling with neck pain. As you sleep, gel foam conforms to the curves of your head and neck, providing a gentle, responsive feel for uninterrupted sleep. Even better, ThermaGel TM infusion heightens air flow, transferring heat away from the body to maintain your ideal sleep temperature throughout the night. And, the addition of AquaCool TM surface technology means you're always on the cool side of the pillow.

Even better, if you are a hot sleeper, this pillow can help you stay cool and comfortable for a zen-like rest. Talk about a cool night's sleep.
