What is the DreamCloud pillow?
The DreamCloud pillow is a firm-feeling pillow for cushion-like comfort. 🧸
It's made with shredded memory foam that contours around the head and shoulders and has a removable Tencel cover.
Memory foam is made from viscoelastic cells that adapt to pressure and heat, making it a great material for pillows as they can mould around the head and shoulders and relieve pressure.
How was our experience when we tested this pillow? 👇
How comfortable is the DreamCloud pillow?
It’s difficult to know if a pillow is for you just from scrolling through some pictures and reading a couple of reviews online. 🤔
So we’ll do everything we can to break down the ins and outs of the DreamCloud pillow.
Is the pillow great for sitting up in bed and reading?
Overall, the DreamCloud pillow offers a firm and supportive feel.
For those who like to cosy up in bed and get stuck in a book - the DreamCloud pillow is ideal. 📖
It's the perfect accessory for snuggling up in bed to read or watch a movie.
The cushion-like feel of the pillow provides the perfect support without having to add extra pillows.
But what about sleeping? 🧐
What does sleeping with the DreamCloud pillow feel like?
The DreamCloud pillow supports the head without sinking too much. ⚓
Being used to hollowfibre pillows that go flat fairly quickly, it took some time to adjust to the sturdier feel of the DreamCloud pillow.
We tested this pillow for a couple of months, and although it did soften up a bit over time, it kept its high loft shape and firmness. 🧱
This is great news for those who prefer a solid cushion-like pillow that lasts.
Is the DreamCloud pillow good for my sleeping position?
The last thing you want to do is purchase a pillow that's unsuitable for your sleeping position. 😨
Here’s what you need:
- Side sleepers: A high loft, firm pillow that fills the space between the head and shoulders.
- Back sleepers: A medium loft and feel pillow that aligns the spine and neck.
- Stomach sleepers: An extra soft, low-loft pillow (or no pillow at all) to keep the head close to the mattress.
So, how did the DreamCloud pillow stack up when we tested it in each position?
Are DreamCloud pillows good for side sleepers?
We found the DreamCloud pillow most comfortable in the side sleeping position.
The high loft of the pillow encourages optimal alignment of the spine and neck when sleeping on your side. 🙌
The firm feel of the pillow also helps to keep the head raised and supported.
There was a very slight bend in the neck but overall the pillow felt comfortable in the side sleeping position.
We think the DreamCloud pillow would be suitable for most side sleepers who prefer a solid pillow.
Are DreamCloud pillows good for back sleepers?
The DreamCloud Pillow is suitable for some back sleepers. 😍
In this position, the head was raised and helped to keep the neck fairly straight with the spine.
However, the pillow was still slightly too high for some body types in this position.
If you are petite, you might find the DreamCloud pillow too firm and deep for this position.
Instead, consider a slightly softer pillow with customisable height, such as the Simba Hybrid pillow.
Are DreamCloud pillows good for stomach sleepers?
We felt the DreamCloud pillow was too high for those who sleep on their stomach.
The firmer feel and high depth of the DreamCloud pillow created a bend in the top of the spine. 😨
This causes tension, which can lead to waking with neck and back pain.
Instead, consider an adjustable pillow for customisable comfort.
These pillows have multiple layers or shredded foam that can be added and removed to your desire.
We recommend using just one layer for stomach sleepers, two for back sleepers, and three or more for side sleepers.
We've listed some adjustable options below:
What are DreamCloud pillows made of?
The DreamCloud brand creates premium memory foam products and is a "firm" believer in providing a better night's sleep.
And the DreamCloud pillow does just that and more.
A DreamCloud pillow is comprised of:
- A mesh bag filled with extra firm shredded memory foam
- A removable outer cover made from Tencel cooling fabric
So, why is memory foam - and especially shredded memory foam - a great choice?
What is memory foam?
Memory foam is an artificial material made from polyurethane foam.
The viscoelastic material responds to body heat, which helps it to adapt to the shape of the body.
Memory foam gets its name from the responsive material remembering its original shape. 🧠
The images below show you how this works:
Memory foam is an excellent filling for pillows as it moulds around the head and shoulders, which provides pressure-relieving comfort that can reduce neck pain. 🥰
Is the shredded memory foam in the DreamCloud pillow removable?
Unfortunately, the mesh bag is sealed, so we couldn’t remove any memory foam like some other brands.
However, those DIY-inclined could probably tear a hole in the bag and fashion their own zipper. 🧵
You could even take the foam out of the original bag and pop it into a separate pillow protector.
Nevertheless, it would have been great if the removable aspect was already a part of the original DreamCloud pillow. 🤔
What’s so great about shredded memory foam?
Typically, a memory foam pillow will come in one of three forms:
- Shredded memory foam
- Memory foam layers
- A solid memory foam pillow
A shredded memory foam pillow is the most versatile of these three types.
A solid foam pillow typically uses high-density foam with no adjustability, whilst a layered pillow only has one or two removable layers.
A shredded foam pillow is made from chopped-up bits of memory foam. ✂️
It can be fluffed and puffed to help it keep its natural shape for longer, and can cradle the space between the head and shoulders for a natural feeling of comfort.
Shredded memory foam is also more breathable as retained heat flows through the gaps between the shredded foam pieces.
In addition to the filling, of course, the DreamCloud pillow also features a great pillow cover.
DreamCloud pillow cover
In fact, one of our favourite things about the DreamCloud pillow is the removable cover. 🙌
The DreamCloud pillow cover is made with the same quilted fabric as the DreamCloud mattress.
The thick quilted design of the cover gives the pillow a premium feel.
The side of the DreamCloud pillow also has a mesh strip to provide optimal ventilation. 💨
This allows any hot air built up inside the pillow to disperse out easily and provide a cooler sleep. ❄️
The Tencel [1] fibres used in the outer cover are great for absorbing moisture, promoting breathability and being kind to the skin.
Can you wash a DreamCloud pillow?
Unfortunately, the DreamCloud pillow and outer casing are non-washable. 👎
If you spill something on the pillow, you can spot clean the stain with a mild soap, such as washing-up liquid.
You can remove the outer cover and let it air out near an open window, which will help to remove any moisture or bacteria built up over time. 🦠
We recommend doing this every couple of months, as well as using pillow protectors alongside pillowcases.
DreamCloud pillow size
The DreamCloud pillow is a one-size-fits-all standard size pillow.
It measures 74 x 84 cm (29 x 33 inches) and is about 15.5 cm ( 6.10 inches) deep. 📏
The DreamCloud pillow is much deeper than your average pillow.
Even after a few months of testing this pillow, we were pleased to see it kept its shape and size.
You should puff up your pillow regularly (as often as you change your sheets) to ensure it stays in a good-as-new shape and condition. ✨
DreamCloud pillow prices & discount codes
The DreamCloud pillow comes in a pack of two, making it a good value for money purchase. 💰
