Sink into head-conforming memory foam, and enjoy the cooling cover fabric for a full night’s rest! WHAT’S THIS TOMORROW PILLOW MADE OF? Yep, you guessed it.
The Cooling Memory Foam pillow from Tomorrow Sleep is filled with memory foam. But it’s got some special, more hidden features to it as well. The cover fabric of this pillow is made from a blend of polyester, nylon, and polyethylene. The polyethylene, or Phase Change Material, is engineered to offer a crisp coolness that never wears out. So if you’re a sleeper who’s prone to warming up in the night, this is going to help regulate your body temperature. The high-density memory foam inside this pillow is built to contour to your head and neck, relieving pressure while also helping to keep your body from warming up. The density of the foam serves to isolate movement as you transition sleeping positions, while the pillow’s soft core adjusts to your body’s unique shape. Tomorrow Sleep uses CertiPUR-US certified foam, so you know it’s going to be hypoallergenic and free from any toxic dyes or chemicals.
It also employs what the company refers to as a "Duocore design." This design is intended to regulate the temperature of the pillow by dispersing the sleeper’s body heat through what’s referred to as the "cozy" side, and keeping the other side cool. One side of the foam has Phase Change Material inside of it, which further enhances the coolness. This was done to allow sleepers to flip their pillow and enjoy different temperatures and levels of comfort. This pillow has a relatively low profile, meaning its loft is not very high. So, stomach sleepers can enjoy the body conforming benefits of this pillow without having to worry about their necks being craned out of alignment with their spines. However, because of the firmer feel and support, the folks at Tomorrow do advertise this pillow as best for Derila Sleep Support back and side sleepers. HOW DOES THIS PILLOW FEEL? The first thing you notice about the feel of this pillow is how cool the cover fabric is.
The Phase Change Material keeps both sides of the pillow feeling cool, albeit a little slippery. That same cooling material covers one side of the foam within the pillow itself, so one side is markedly cooler than the other. If you’re not sure which side is meant to be the cool side, just unzip the cover and check to see which side of the foam is blue. As usual, the blue side is the cooler side. The foam itself has a nice, slow response to pressure and does a nice job of conforming to your head and neck. While it is foldable, it really doesn’t have much shapeability, and it’s not at all adjustable. So, you kind of have to be compatible with the feel and support of this pillow exactly as it comes. That being said, the low profile of this pillow was particularly great for Comfortable Sleep Pillow back and stomach sleeping.
Because the loft is only a couple inches high, and the foam is compressible, stomach sleepers don’t really need to worry about their necks being craned upwards. Meanwhile, back sleepers would probably be compatible with the way the foam gently cradles the head and neck, keeping everything in healthy neutral alignment. Even though the loft is low, Derila for Better Sleep the foam does offer a cooling, comfy feel as well as a slow response to pressure that could benefit memory foam lovers of all sleep styles. HOW DID YOU LIKE IT, SARAH? Sink into head-conforming memory foam, and enjoy the cooling cover fabric for a full night’s rest! However, I can’t say I noticed much of a difference between the "cool" side and the "cozy" side. My initial impression was that both sides felt equally cool, but maybe I just hadn’t slept on this pillow enough! So I jumped into the supine position with the blue side of the foam facing up. Right away, I could feel the memory foam conform to my head and neck and, despite the lower loft, felt a considerably deep sink into the pillow.
