Review: Well Worth the Money.... - A wonderful, and comfortable pillow. As long as you understand that a camping pillow will never be as good as a proper one like you'd use at home, then you'll be pleasantly surprised by this Thermarest. It does smell a bit chemically when you first unpack it, but the label actively encourages you to machine wash and tumble dry the pillow before using it for the first time. This has two advantages - it takes away the chemical smell of the materials, and it invigorates the loft of the pillow. The loft is actually extremely good, and provides really great support which is almost as good as having a real pillow. Note that you will have to leave the pillow for at least 5 minutes before it fully expands after unpacking, and the pillow transforms quite incredibly. Fill materials (the foam bits) are surprisingly comfy, and although you are aware that there's bits of foam in the thing (if you squeeze the pillow you can tell), it doesn't annoy you when sleeping on it - it just feels like a comfortable and soft pillow. I ordered the small model and find that it is perfectly fine for a comfortable night's sleep (I didn't see a tremendous need to go for the medium or large, and was glad in the end). The pillow packs down fairly small, and if combined with a compression and / or stuff sack, can be squished even further for more effective space saving. The thing also weighs next to nothing - bonus! If you value sleeping comfortably in the wild, then for the modest space this will take up in your pack, its well worth the investment.
Review: A truly comfortable pillow of innovative design. Thermarest Cinch Pillow - This Thermarest pillow is simply great! I bought the large one. The quality and comfort of this American assembled pillow is top notch. The cinch strap on this revised model is a great idea that allows one to firm up the pillow. The spring toggle barrel which has a little button to depress with a finger, on the cinch string can slip a little however the spring does provide enough bite on the cord to hold it in place. I think this pillow is the most comfortable camping/travel pillow on the market, it's as good as a regular home bed pillow. The blow up pillows are just too uncomfortable and noisy, this pillow will allow you to get a good night's sleep. The first pillow sent to me from desertcart had its factory sealed bag opened and crudely sellotaped up. I sent it back due to hygiene concerns. My new pillow arrived in a factory sealed plastic bag.

## Features

- The best camping cushion that is soft and whose firmness can be individually adjusted. It can be conveniently stored and taken anywhere. Our tried and tested travel pillow is versatile and popular with business travelers and car campers alike. The interior of the cushion is made of upcycled foam from our sleeping mat manufacturing and the cover is made from super soft polyester from recycled materials. It is small, has a foam filling, can be tightly assembled
- and is large.
- New shapes and designs make our cushions the perfect addition to any camping equipment. A layer of synthetic insulation creates warmth and evens out lumps to keep the pillow comfortable all night long.
- The small pack size makes the cushion an indispensable companion for all outdoor adventures. No lumps: a lightweight and soft insulation layer on top eliminates lumps, making the pillow even softer.
- Available in three sizes from 2022: Small 38 x 28 x 13 cm (210 g) / Regular 46 x 33 x 15 cm (295 g) / Large 56 x 38 x 18 cm (415 g)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very happy.
*by L***E on 22 February 2026*

I'd give this 6 stars if I could. It's been a game changer to my quality of sleep when camping. I even use it as my bedroom pillow now. I've cut the toggle and draw string off and use a stuff sack to compress it down to about the size of a rugby ball. Good quality and quite soft. You can make it firmer by adjusting the draw string but I don't find it necessary. Absolutely worth the pack size for the weight and quality of sleep.
