I have mentioned this a lot but getting the right pillow is vital for a good night’s sleep. In this Eva pillow review, I will explore this interesting option and share my thoughts with you.
After trying the Eva mattress, I was really curious to get my hands on their pillow too. The people at Eva decided to create a memory foam pillow which is quite similar to some other ones in the market like the Koala one. However, this is a smaller pillow measuring 62 x 40 x 14cm. In my opinion, this is a better size and I think that Eva did a better job here. When you order one from them, you will get a 120-night trial period which is great. That gives you 4 months to decide whether you want to keep it or not. If you are not happy with it, you can return it and get a full refund. The Eva pillow also comes with free delivery so you will be getting a great service. Mine arrived about 3 weeks ago so it’s about time, I write this review.
Construction
This pillow is made of a single piece of memory foam which is a design that many makers use. To improve it, they infused it with activated charcoal which has a number of benefits. Firstly, it can keep moisture away so the pillow stays cool during the night. Secondly, it repels odours and it can keep bad bacteria away. Moreover, the engineers at Eva decided to drill holes in the pillow which help it to breathe so this pillow will be good even for the Australian summer. The design is a clever one and it’s obvious that a lot of thought was put behind it. Overall, Eva did a great job here.
Cover
The cover of the Eva mattress is made of Tencel which is arguably one of my favourite materials. It has a number of benefits but I am going to mention the main ones. Firstly, it’s a breathable material that has the ability to regulate heat very efficiently. Secondly, it’s naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Finally, the production of Tencel is an eco-friendly process when compared to cotton. All these make it a great choice for a pillow cover. If you want to clean it, you can remove it and machine-wash it at 30 degrees.
The cover feels soft and it has a plain design. In addition, the designers have added an invisible zip so it won’t bother you during sleep. Overall, this is a great cover so no complaints at all.
Support
When designing this pillow, they wanted to give sleepers the option to adjust its firmness. To achieve that, they introduced the cover which according to them, it can make the pillow feel softer. However, I think that this is not the case but I don’t think this is a problem. The pillow is 14cm in height which is great mostly for back and side sleepers. Stomach sleepers might find it a bit too thick but this is a matter of taste as well. For me, the pillow did well in all sleeping positions and I was very impressed by the pressure relief I got. Overall, the pillow is very supportive and my neck and head felt well in the morning.
Is the Eva pillow for me?
This is not an easy question to answer but I will try to do my best now that I am about to complete this Eva mattress review. I think that this pillow would be great for anyone looking for:
- A memory foam pillow that is designed for every type of weather.
- A pillow that comes with a great Tencel cover.
- An affordable pillow that comes with a 120-night trial period.
If you look for all these, the Eva pillow should be one to consider. It’s supportive and it’s designed to stay cool during the night. Pack this with an excellent support package and you have a great option without needing to spend much.
