I have mentioned many times that a good mattress is not enough for a good night’s sleep. You need to use the right pillow too and in this Joey Pillow review, I will discuss this interesting option.
I came across this pillow after ordering a Joey mattress so a few weeks later, I decided to order one for myself. What impressed me is that they offer a 99-night trial period which is exactly the same as the one offered for their mattress. This is not common so well done Joey! Additionally, they offer free nationwide delivery and a 2-year warranty. This is a great package that makes it a safe purchase. My pillow was delivered a week ago so it’s time now to move to the full review below.
Construction
The Joey pillow has an interesting design that works well. The core is made of a single piece of Malaysian latex which is covered by polyester. The latex is 100% natural and it’s sourced from local rubber plantations. The engineers at Joey decided to professionally treat it with dust mite repellent in order to increase its protection against them. To make it more breathable, they drilled micro-vents which allow the Joey pillow to sleep cool. Finally, the latex core is anti-microbial and hypoallergenic so it’s a good option for allergy sufferers. Overall, this is a high-quality pillow that impressed me.
Cover
The cover of this pillow is made of 68% Polyester and 32% Viscose. This is a very breathable blend but at the same time, it’s quite durable. The cover also comes with micro vents that further increase the airflow. One of the things I like about it is the design. The top and bottom part is white while the sides are made of denim fabric. This is their trademark and it looks very cool.
Unfortunately, the cover is not machine-washable; for me, this is the main drawback of this pillow. According to the maker, you shouldn’t even wash it by hand so I guess your only choice is to spot-clean it. The cover feels soft and it has a nice touch. In my opinion, I think it looks more expensive than it actually is and this is hard to ignore. Overall, this is a well-made cover that has one big drawback (not washable).
Support
The main reason to buy this pillow is the support it can offer. It comes with a clever design that has two different heights. The tall one is 12cm so it is best suited to the side position and the shorter one is 10cm which is best suited to the stomach and back position. This makes it a versatile choice and I personally loved it. The latex core is very supportive and it can reduce pressure points with great efficiency. I slept with the Joey pillow in every sleeping position and I felt that this is a great all-rounder. This is hard to find so if you are a combo sleeper, this is definitely one to consider.
Who should buy the Joey pillow?
This is a good question that I will try to answer before I complete this Joey pillow review. In my opinion, this would be a good option for those looking for:
- A versatile pillow designed for all sleeping positions.
- A latex pillow that is very supportive.
- A pillow that comes with a 99-night trial period.
The people at Joey managed to build a great all-rounder here and this is a pillow that I loved. Although it comes with a big drawback (non-washable cover), I still feel that this is a pillow I can recommend.
