LUCID Talalay Latex Foam Mid-Loft-Removable Cotton Cover Pillow, King, White

I had never heard of a latex foam pillow previously; however, this pillow is the best. It supports my neck and my head. I would recommend it.

The pillow was good on medium softness. I always air out the foam rubber pillows away, and I had no smell at all. No rubber or odor good right away to sleep on.

I didn't expect to actually enjoy sleeping with this pillow, as I needed to replace my old one. it is a bit stinky, but I've only been using it for a week or so. I assume the smell will go away. I think the pillow is pretty bouncy, and doesn't really settle down easily, so you don't have to worry about adjusting the pillow. this pillow has actually been great for pain relief, as I've been walking around campus all day. laying down on this is wonders for my neck and overall relaxation. the pillow doesn't go flat, and I think the quality is pretty good for what you pay for. anyways other than the stinky latex smell, which isn't overwhelming, it's a good 4/5.

3 years and still the best pillow. A True Talay Latex pillows are long lasting. I had one from my grandmothers home for 18 years until I went looking for a replacement.There are a few things to know:Talay Latex is NOT memory foam. Latex is organic material, should you want or need to clean. Gentle wash, gentle detergent, front load or top load with minimized agitators or hand wash in bathtub with Woolite and absolutely NO DRYERIt does have a very strong smell when you first get and if you clean. I let my new ones air out for at least a week and in addition to the cover it comes with I do a second cover.No matter what you do this type of pillow, it will bounce back. It will take years to flatten.Latex pillows come in 3 different firmness. Firm, medium and soft. I have purchased all 3 firmness in 4 different sizes (standard, queen, king and contour).Soft firmness will contour your head nicely without a lot of bulkiness. However, over time softness becomes is more like a feather pillow. ( I have in king and is my roll up under neck and head pillow,)Medium firmness has give but supportive.(I use for sleeping medium king and my husband prefer medium queen. There’s a difference in how thick, queen being thicker)Firm is super dense, in my experience is great as king size for my body pillow needs. I wedge long ways under my backside when my disc is aching.I suffer from brain, neck and back condition. I have wasted tons of money buying pillows on a yearly basis. I didn’t want to wear out my grandma’s pillow. It smelled like her house and it was a treasure to remember her. But no matter how much I spent on store pillows I keep going back to my grandmas pillow then after 18 years it finally came to the time where I had to replace it. So I started looking for the pillow with holes and the rest is history.Thank you for reading, I hope this helps you. Please excuse any typos or grammar errors.

I would have Loved to like this pillow, I have uses a 💯 % latex pillow for well over 15 years. I have a king size & loves it from day one.I wanted to buy a queen for the motorhome. This is more like a standard. The measurements do not match the listing at all.I’ve left it out to air & see if it changes, which is shouldn’t change since it is Latex not Memory foam.It is also thick & firmer than any medium support. Would be great for propped up watching tv but I want it to sleep on.I could not sleep after trying it for few hours still awake & aching neck so it is being returned sadly.It is more of a firm pillow than a soft or medium plush.

Not a true queen size, off by an inch or more in width and maybe 2 inches in length? It was a firm foam for sure (the one I received, it most likely varies by reviews). My other pillows I own have medium feel and soft feel, we use the mediums. The firm from this purchase was too stiff for us, easily told by pressing down on it. Some may like it. It has a very unpleasant odor that is unlike other Talalay pillows I have purchased and own. I aired it out via fan for 2 weeks on and off, no change at all. I purchased another pillow form a reliable company and it is the correct (closer at least) dimensions and the loft was the specified loft of 6 inches. The other purchase also had the normal Talalay rubber smell I am accustomed to. Then the last issue, it had about 6 small depth places torn out that were holes, from 1/8 inch to perhaps 3/16 inch deep, and 1/2 to 3/4 inch long, some smaller. Only one side, but NO WAY! The cover is supposed to be 100% cotton, it did not feel like it, it was a little slippery like. I cannot confirm whether it is or not. I got another one that I kept. AB ....

Love this pillow, keeps it’s shape and supports head and neck.

We absolutely LOVE these pillows. They replaced our old foam ones. They are perfect!

I want a natural product pillow and my research led me to a laxtex pillow. The reviews on this were overall good so i ordered one. I am a side sleeper and there was one review about the pillow being higher than advertised but I ignored that. When the pillow arrived, i quickly realized it would not work for side sleeping and was disappointed. However I also found that it is an AMAZING support pillow for reading in bed or watching tv. It is soft but never changes its thickness so the support is consistent. So very comfortable. I would LOVE to find this same brand in half the thickness. The quality is top shelf and there was absolutely zero odor when i opened the package. Able to use immediately. Worth the money

Too hot to sleep in

Nunca había utilizado una almohada de Latex y me dejé llevar por las opiniones.He estado en la busqueda de una almohada firme, que sea alta porque tengo la espalda ancha y duermo de lado y que sea cómoda.He probado con distintas almohadas, de memory foam triturado (total decepción), de las regulares nivel de firmeza 5 (spring air y no es el nivel de firmeza que dice ser y demasiado incómoda) de las que parecen "muelas", (de las peores que he usado, no la utilicé 2 noches seguidas), y ahora probé la de Latex.Cosas buenas de esta almohada de latex:Es alta y el hundimiento durmiendo de lado es casi el que necesito, es ligeramente más alto, aunque si duermes boca arriba deja de ser bueno, te duele el cuello en la mañana. Pero si duermes exclusivamente de lado y tienes espalda ancha, podria ser tu tipo.Es cómoda en primera instancia, para un descanso informal. Pones la cabeza en la almohada y sientes inmediatamente que es distinto a lo que regularmente usas, a pesar de hundirse considerablemente, no se siente mal, el nivel de comodidad de primera impresión parece funcionar.Es grande, llega compactada y va tomando su tamaño con el paso de las horas, pero para ser sincero nunca llegó al tamaño que dice ser en el modelo Queen, le faltaron unos 10 cms sin usarse y ya en uso se reduce al tamaño de una regular, no de una Queen.Cosas malas:La suavidad y comodidad que te da en primera impresión, no se sostiene en el sueño de toda la noche.La almohada tiene perforaciones, me imagino que para que respire y deje pasar aire, el material de Latex ya es de un tipo que tiende a hundirse, pero con esas perforaciones hace que se sienta como una gelatina.Parece que apoyas la cabeza en una gelatina y los movimientos naturales de tu cuerpo mientras descansas, los sientes en la almohada, justamente por esa sensación de que estás sobre una gelatina; mueves ligeramente la cabeza y esta no se queda donde quieres, se mueve ligeramente de acuerdo a la amohada, por esa sensación de movimiento permanente que tiene, es inestable descansar la cabeza.Reitero, la idea que mejor se apega a esto, es como poner la cabeza en una gelatina donde incluso si respiras o toses, se te va a mover la cabeza más de lo que tu movimiento natural da. Porque es inestable.No se si una almohada que sea de latex pero de un solo bloque, sin esas perforaciones se sienta igual. Pero esta almohada a lo largo de las horas en la noche, deja de ser cómoda por no ser estable y hace que tu cabeza se mueva más de lo que realmente lo hace, porque es como gelatina.Demasiado caliente, en cuanto depositas la cabeza en unos cuantos segundos sientes el calor. Usaba sustituir una almohada Spring Air Memory Foam firmeza 4 de un solo bloque, la cual es algo cálida, pero esta de latex es mucho más. En muy pocos segudos sientes el calor, mientras que en otras, este se va generando poco a poco y de manera acumulativa. Aquí no, recuestas la cabeza y en muy poco tiempo alcanza su temperatura más alta.Estos 2 puntos, que se sienta como gelatina y que genere mucho calor, para quienes tenemos el sueño ligero, no nos permite descansar.Por un momento consideré probar con una de un solo bloque de latex, aunque fuera más costosa, para ver si eso le quitaba la sensación de "gelatina" que tiene esta que es perforada, pero el calor no lo soporto.Tuve que devolverla y acabo de encontrar por suerte, otra de Spring Air igual de Memory Foam firmeza 5 que es la más alta y es la noche y el día. Qué rico se descansa en una de firmeza 5. Ya haré mi reseña en ese producto.Yo creo que para ciertos climas fríos y gente que tenga sueño profundo, esta almohada será perfecta.Pero para mi, con todas mis idiosincrasias al dormir, no es lo que necesito.

The pillow is heavy but for me very comfortable to sleep on. It is a good thickness for side sleeping and moulds to your head for back sleeping.

Leider bei Latex Kopfkissen ist es sehr oft der Fall, dass die Angaben nicht stimmen und man wird (absichtlich?) hinters licht geführt.Zunächst es ist nicht immer Naturlatex wo Naturlatex drauf steht. Bestenfalls 80% Naturlatex und der Rest synthetisch bzw. unbekannte Chemikalien, die nie deklariert werden. Im schlimmsten Fall sind es 50% Naturlatex und der Rest Künstlich, plus nicht deklarierte Chemikalien (die zum Teil krebserregend sein können).Und fast immer stimmt die Höhe vom Kissen nicht, es ist nie 12cm oder 14cm wie oft angegeben - sondern weniger, manchmal fehlen gar 4 bis 6cm.Aber glücklicherweise nicht hier.Bei LUCID stimmt alles! Die Qualität und die Angaben korrekt.Man muss aber den Kissen unbedingt zuerst ausreichend lüften, sonst wird man den Restgeruch nicht los.Aber auch hier muss man anmerken, das Kissen riecht nicht so stark nach Chemie wie oft von anderen Hersteller.Ich bin mit dem Kissen absolut zufrieden, es ist sehr bequem und schön bouncy. Das Bezug ebenfalls sehr gut.Einige Kissen davor mussten aus diversen Gründen zurückgehen, aber meistens stimmte die Höhe nicht oder die waren zur hart.Entgegen LUCID kann ich vorbehaltlos empfehlen. Dafür dass es aus USA versendet wurde, war es dennoch ziemlich schnell geliefert.
