Cooling Pillow...

My H is always asking to flip over the pillows.  It gets hot and he would like it cooler. Soooo, does anyone have any advice on getting a cooling pillow?  I have seen them places but not sure if they actually work..  Do any of you have any idea about them?  If so, how do you like them?  I wanna get my H one.  I know he would LOVE it...

Re: Cooling Pillow...

  • I've seen those on TV and saw one in BBB, but I have no idea if they really work. I've always been tempted to buy one though (and almost did a couple months ago!) because I am a HOT sleeper! It can be 60 in the room and I'll wake up sweating. If you get him one, be sure to post a review after he's used it for awhile because I wanna know if they're worth it!

    In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

  • We got ours at Costco, they work fairly well. They are very heavy though.
  • DH and I just got the ones from BBB.  It's memory foam with the cooling thing on top.  You can definitely feel the cool!  A couple nights ago I had to flip it over because my face was too cold lol. We've only had them for about 2 weeks, but we like them so far. Like @blueeyedblosom said, they're pretty heavy.

    MIL has a Chillow. She used to have really really really bad hot flashes (she went through menopause early because of chemo, which apparently makes the symptoms much worse). She absolutely LOVES the thing. Swears by it. So I'd recommend it, too.
