Casper Sleep Original Pillow, Standard Size – Medium Soft Feel, Down-Alternative Fill, Supports Side, Back & Stomach Sleepers, Neck Pain Relief, Machine Washable

After searching for quite a while for a comfortable pillow I landed back at Casper. This one is thick and firm but has enough give to offer support.

I'm fortunate enough to be an amazon vine member. That being said, i RARELY leave reviews for non vine products. But I hope this review will help someone. Backstory: I had a harder foam pillow. It pretty much didnt compress much. It worked fine, but after a year or more, i kind of wanted something new. I received a cheapo normal pillow for xmas. It was serta too. But like all cheap pillows, at first, it was great, firm but super fluffy. Then it compressed to less than half its size. and OH MAN. Did it kill my neck. I had serious pain. Queue my search for a pillow. I started searching high and low, reading a ton of reviews. Turns out depending on whether you are a back, side, or stomach sleeper, you need a different pillow. and everyone is different. The search got ridiculous. In the end i said f' it and went with this pillow. The reviews are great, so i took a shot. This pillow has an inner pillow and an outer. After taking out of the box, it of course fluffs up pretty intensely. First few nights, its like sleeping on a cloud. For 2 months, the pillow held the fluff. I was impressed. Around the 2 month mark, i started getting some shoulder/neck pain. The pillow started to lose its fluff despite me trying to fluff it up. When this happens, give it a wash. As per the instructions, I separated each pillow, inner and outer. Zipped outer. Did light detergent, delicate cycle. Dried in a delicate cycle as well. And now the pillow is like new and then some! Super fluffy. I'll report back if things change, but overall this is a great pillow. It saved my neck, and I hope it saves yours too.

UPDATE: I did indeed order the Casper Sleep Essential Cooling pillow. I reached out to Casper and they told me it is basically the Casper Original pillow, but with an improved cover that is more breathable so hopefully the Essential Cooling pillow will actually be cooler than the Original Casper pillow. The representative also said they are very similar in comfort. He said the Essential Cooling pillow is manufactured specifically for their partners, which is why I couldn’t find it on the Casper website.Hope this helps! Very comfortable. Not too soft so has good support. I’m only giving this 4 stars because the description specifically states “100% cotton cover features a breathable percale weave which increases airflow, so you’re always sleeping cool.” This pillow sleeps very warm! It would be perfect for a cooler climate, or the 30 days of winter we have in Florida! This pillow is super comfortable though! Although I’m returning it, I ordered the Casper Sleep Essential Cooling Pillow, so hopefully this one will indeed be cool!

These are my favorite pillows. I purchased two king-sized original pillows. These are the second set that I’ve owned. The first set I bought in 2018 and had for eight years. This new set is the same impeccable quality and incredible comfort. No odor, true to king size, well made/good quality material, and perfect for back, stomach, or side sleepers. I would highly recommend!

My husband is VERY picky about his pillow and he's bought many over the past few years. He LOVES this pillow. The quality is great, there is no odor and it fits very well into king pillow cases. Finally a pillow that he loves!

Super soft, but too thick for a side sleeper. At first it felt amazing sitting up in bed or even first lying down, but I’ve slept on it for 3 nights now and my neck is hurting. It’s best for a back sleeper. This would be perfect for a side sleeper if thinner, because it’s nice and soft.

First and foremost this is one of the most comfortable pillows I’ve ever used. Idk if it’s primarily due to its filling material, bc of the pillow within a pillow design, or all of its features working together, but it delivers great support while lying on my back or on my side, while still being amazingly comfortable. If you like very thick and/or firm pillows or very thin and/or super soft pillows then this is almost certainly not the pillow for you, but if you like a comfortably soft yet supportive pillow, this pillow strikes a great balance. I just got my pillow a couple days ago, and so haven’t seen how it will hold up to repeated washing cycles and normal use, but the fact that it has an outer sleeve that zips off means it will be a lot easier to wash than any of my previous pillows. Hopefully the fill material in the outer sleeve won’t bunch up during washing, but so much thought was clearly put into the design of this pillow that i have to believe they accounted for this and the sleeve will be fine even after many wash cycles (fingers crossed anyway). One example of their attention to detail is in the zipper on the outer sleeve: it’s a high quality metal zipper pull and mechanism that has had all of its edges and corners chamfered to prevent any poking or catching. Plus it’s been coated in what feels like a polymer paint to give it a smooth finish and prevent any noise. The only thing keeping this pillow from being perfect is that the fabric is a little noisy while my head is moving around trying to find the perfect position, at least for now while it’s brand new anyway (the pillow, not my head). That’s very common with cotton fabric when it’s new though, so i feel confident that it will quiet down considerably after a couple of washes. I have unusually acute hearing, so most people probably wouldn’t be bothered by the sound it makes even if it doesn’t quiet down after washing. For now i feel it deserves top marks, so I’m giving it 5 stars. I’ll see how it holds up over time though. Hopefully its quality endures, but if it doesn’t I’ll update my review to reflect that.

This pillow is one of the best pillows I’ve ever used. It’s soft and comfortable, yet also supportive where it matters for all kinds of sleep positions. I personally sleep on my back and sides and I’ve never slept better. I would say it sits around medium-firm, which is how I personally like it. I’ve tried the “#1 best seller” pillow and it was a total pile of flaming garbage, so I decided to spend a little extra and grabbed this while it was on sale for 48 bucks and boy was it worth the switch. My neck and shoulders are consistently comfortable no matter how I turn and I don’t “micro-wake” up due to an uncomfortable pillow that needs adjustment or fluffing like that crappy other set I ordered that’s promptly being returned. Mine came in a brown box with the white Casper text on the side, sealed, and I can confirm that this is simply just new packaging, it’s not fake just because it didn’t come in the tube some have listed. Use your brains people, manufacturers always make adjustments to product packaging over time, so don’t be stupid and claim/accuse something is fake without researching further, but I digress... The material stays consistent throughout the night and doesn’t shift around like other pillows I’ve had. It adapts and holds really well however you move. Even the most fidgety sleepers should give this a try. I imagine the material will eventually flatten down somewhat, but Casper includes a nifty little booklet for tips and care for your pillow, like washing, proper fluffing, etc. You definitely won’t wake up with your head sunk to the mattress, it’s a very well designed pillow that seems like a lot of though and trial and error was put into. I think they also improved the quality of their pillows because I don’t know what the other older reviews were saying about their head sinking to the mattress because on these new ones, that’s impossible on the mere fact of the supportive filling + the cushioned outer covering. I hope they continue to improve from here, because it’s been everything I’ve wanted and wished for in a pillow so far. Like everything though, this is entirely subjective to taste and it certainly fits my sleeping needs. It has quite literally been the pillow of my dreams.

I absolutely love this pillow , I have purchased so many pillow and they would all be too firm or so soft they had no support . I read the reviews on the Casper pillow and thought I would try it , they are expensive but finally I found exactly what I wanted , so pillowy soft but a firm inner so lots of support .

Super sort and huge!!! Best nights sleep ever.

I have spent so much money on different pillows and have never been comfortable or have woken up with neck pain. Personally the Casper pillow is perfect as a side and stomach sleeper. It is soft yet supportive, has a good weight to it, provides neck support without being too hard and I wake up with no neck pain and feel rested. It has a firmer pillow inside the softer pillow, is easy to remove and wash in the washing machine. For me it is worth the money to have a peaceful and pain free sleep. I will never go without a Casper pillow again!

I rarely post reviews, but this pillow is simply fantastic! I'm mostly a side sleeper and an occasional back sleeper, and this superb pillow is appropriate for both positions, i.e. medium-firm support which is soft, deep, and luxurious. This pillow matches up to the high quality pillows I've used when staying in top hotels. I did a lot of research, and even ordered a few pillows from elsewhere (subsequently returned), but this is by far my best purchase of the year so far. Highly recommended.

I love the Casper pillow. This is my third one They are very comfortable and great for use with Cpap mask
