When it comes to durability, Consumer Report says that you generally get what you pay for. The solution? If you have a firm mattress you’ll want a higher-lofted pillow and if you have a soft mattress you’ll want one that’s low-loft. Mattress firmness also contributes to the alignment of your spine as harder ones leave a large gap between your body and the bed. ![]() Side sleepers should opt for larger pillows to ensure the head is fully supported. If you sleep on your stomach you'll want a thin pillow. If you sleep on your back you should search for a fairly flat pillow. You'll want one that will neutralize your spine, meaning your neck and back should be aligned. 1 characteristic to look for in a pillow is the support. Once you have your sheets, you'll want to make sure you have a good pillow. The Pima cotton is derived from long-staple yarns, which make the sheets extra durable. Bean Pima Cotton Percale Sheet set comes in four sizes and nine solid colors. Find the top picks below, in order of popularity with TODAY readers. However, bamboo sheets were definitely softer and lighter than MyPillow sheets and in most cases, more Eco-friendly as well. A Percale weave is crisper, while a sateen sheet has a softer feel.Ĭonsumer Reports says that most sheets don't get softer over time, so if you don't like the feel of the sheets in the store, you likely won't like them a year later.

The pillows felt like they had those packing peanuts in them.
