Best for Side Sleepers
Honeydew the Scrumptious Side Pillow
Pros
- Unique curved shape supports side sleepers’ shoulders and neck
- 3-year warranty
- CertiPUR-US certified copper-infused foam filling
- Add or remove fill for a customized feel
Cons
- Difficult to find pillowcases that fit (unless you purchase from the brand’s website)
This $130 pillow from Honeydew is a side sleeper’s dream. The medium firmness does an excellent job of cradling both the shoulders and neck for more supportive sleep. For reference, side sleepers need a pillow that is very soft, medium soft, or medium firm.
Honeydew heavily prioritizes craftsmanship and materials; these pillows are made in the USA (in California) with CertiPUR-US certified copper-infused foam filling. A CertiPUR-US certification means the product doesn’t contain formaldehyde, ozone depleters, or other chemicals that could be harmful to the user and the environment.
Like some of the other side-sleeper pillows on this list, the Scrumptious side pillow has a somewhat crescent shape. This helps support the side sleeper’s neck and shoulders, but it can make finding a compatible pillow case difficult. Keep in mind that you’ll need to purchase from the brand’s website if you want a seamless fit (you may not want to just slap a standard pillowcase on it and call it a day).
