Casper Sleep Essential Pillow, Standard Size – Medium Soft Feel, Down-Alternative Fill, Supports Side, Back & Stomach Sleepers

These pillows are the best I’ve ever had! They always look firm on the bed and are incredibly soft. The quality is exceptional, providing just the right balance of support and comfort. The durability of the pillows ensures they maintain their shape and plushness over time.

Very comfortable pillow! I’ve had it for a while now and still going strong. It stays fluffed and comfy I have never had it go flat before. The only con to this pillow is that it will get static fuzz occasionally. Other than that I would really recommend this pillow to back and side sleepers. Typically I’m a side sleeper but I can sleep on my back too. It also is AMAZING for anyone with neck pain. If this if what you are looking for though then look no further than this!

This pillow is so close to perfect. It’s incredibly comfortable, supportive, and definitely cooler than a regular pillow. I love the hybrid feel—it’s plush but still holds its shape. That said, my head still sweats a little, so it’s not quite the magical cooling solution I hoped for. But overall, it’s the best pillow I’ve tried in a long time and a huge upgrade from what I had. Just shy of five stars, but still a keeper!

I am giving this pillow 5 stars, though it did not work for me. I think it will be an excellent find for some who are looking for the qualities this pillow has. First of all, it is excellent quality. It does have a factory smell that I believe will dissipate after a couple days. It is definitely a firm. Like very firm. I am shocked to see people saying this is not a firm pillow. I have been looking for a firm pillow. I have tried 5 so far. They have all been too soft. Then comes this one and somehow it's too hard. I was so bummed. It's also very tall and because it is firm, I didn't sink in far enough into it and it made my neck hurt. I think it'll be awesome for someone else though. I envy that person because this is a great pillow. One thing I want to point out is that in the images for the pillow, it states it is 6 inches. In the product description it says 5 inches. It is in fact 6 inches. I was glad for this at first thinking I maybe wouldn't sink to the bottom. Instead it ended up being too tall. Overall this is a very quality pillow. Firm and supportive. I hope this helps someone in the pillow buying crisis like myself.

Pillow was received as expected. Great quality, and my BF says it is fluffier and does not need any adjustment during his sleep. Worth the extra for the quality. thank you!

Off the bat, purple pillow is the best pillow I've ever owned. It's old, I think they changed it and a new one is too overpriced. Temper cooling second best but also overpriced and very firm. This pillow is a medium firm softness and I bought the essential for my kid, and the cooling for me. I see no cooling properties at all on this. It has not gone flat like down or the synthetic alternatives and puffs up easily with a little effort. Some nights I feel it's perfect, others it does not provide enough support. Side sleeper and finding a pillow is difficult. The ones they say designed for side sleepers are always to firm. I rate this 3 stars because it's middle of the road. IMO has no cooling properties compared to others I have owned.

In the past few months, I've tried every kind of pillow imaginable to help alleviate the neck pain I experience at night. Finally, at the recommendation of my sister, I tried this Caspar pillow. On my first night, even though I still had some neck pain in the morning, I wasn't awakened by it and slept through the night. It's only gotten better since then. The pillow is firmer than a down pillow, but it still has a fluffy (not thick) feel to support me whether I sleep on my side or on my back. I can fold it around my shoulder or tuck it under my chin or against my cheek. The center of it, where my head rests, feels firmer than the sides. Until my neck pain started, I preferred a relatively flat, firm pillow. I hated too much loft, whether by stacking pillows or sleeping on a super-stuffed one. When my pain entered its second week, I started experimenting. Memory foam and cervical neck pillows kept my head from moving, which turned excruciating two hours in. Alternative down pillows from other known mattress companies, even those pillows labeled "soft," pushed my head too far forward due to their thickness, also making the pain worse. Even though I'm allergic to feathers, I almost tried down pillows, but fortunately I found this Caspar first. It has a lot of loft, but the weight of my head sinks better into it than with other pillows. It doesn't keep my head from moving, either. It just feels fluffy and soft and gentle. I went back and forth between getting the Essential Pillow or the Original Pillow. Since they sounded similar, I finally settled on the Essential because of the price at the time. After all, I had already spent a lot on trial pillows. It must be dry-cleaned, however, while the Original does not. The pillow comes tightly rolled inside a compact box. Immediately, when removed, it fluffs up to the size and shape it should. (The company says to wait 48 hours before full loft -- I didn't find a lot of difference after the first couple of hours.) It is not a memory foam pillow; it does not have that squishy feel. Instead, it feels as close to down, with a supportive middle, as alternative down can get. -- Debbie Lee Wesselmann

I have delayed buying a pillow for far too long and until I had eye surgeries, didn't realize how bad my old pillow was. I had been using a rolled up towel under my neck to support my head. I woke up DAILY with sore neck or shoulder muscles and far too often a headache. Pillow shopping is fraught with a bewildering number of choices and prices from low to astronomical. I bought this on sale at the holidays, based on the high number of excellent reviews. Best gift I gave myself this year. The. BEST. Gift!! FYI, I am a back and side sleeper, so I can't comment if this would work for tummy sleepers. Out of the bag, it fluffs up fast. Had NO icky chemical smell or odor. I almost thought it was the wrong pillow, I expected thinner than this. I was a little nervous about trying it. Well, let me tell you, this pillow is FANTASTIC!!! It instantly conformed to my head. I woke up for the first time in YEARS without: A headache, sore neck, sore shoulders or sore anything else. I almost cried I was so pleased. I thought it must be a fluke. It wasn't a fluke. I sleep so comfortably, wake up pain free and refreshed. The only con is that it's so thick, it barely fits in a standard pillow case. I honestly would rate this higher, if I could.
