Why You Can Trust CNET These Pillows Are Amazing and Also On Sale During Black Friday
Treat yourself: When was the last time you even bought a new pillow, anyway?
Update, Nov. 24: My favorite pillows have a Black Friday sale on them right now. It's exclusive to Amazon Prime members only, but you can snag two of these for $30 -- which is even cheaper than they were on Prime Day!
Like approximately 70 million Americans, I have pretty vicious insomnia. It's not as outright terrifying as sleep paralysis (and I'm not ever going to try polyphasic sleeping), but the trouble I have getting to sleep, staying asleep and then waking up has dogged me for years without relief. I've tossed and turned, flipped the pillow until there were no cold spots left, counted sheep and tried myriad breathing exercises, but I really didn't find anything I'd call long-lasting relief until I replaced my pillows with this two-pack from JollyVogue last year. And right now, if you're an Amazon Prime member, you can experience the extra fluffy-but-not-squishy comfort of these pillows for $32, a 20% savings.
Not only are these pillows extremely comfortable, but right now they are on sale for 20% off which is one of the best prices we've seen for them.
No research went into the selection of my fabulous pillows. (You can read CNET's roundup of best pillows for that.) I just happened upon this set of queen-size JollyVogue pillows while on vacation during Prime Day 2021. I was so impressed with the quality of my sleep and just how much better I felt, physically, that I made note of the pillows and bought a pair as soon as I got home. The sleep I've gotten since letting them out of their vacuum-sealed packaging has been fuller, deeper and overall more comfortable.
I still have insomnia, but I would say I've seen pretty marked improvement in how I feel upon waking up. The microfiber filling of these pillows supports my head, neck and knees incredibly well (I'm a two-pillow gal), and the cotton cover is comforting and soft to the touch. They're also just… really cute? The knitted design looks nice. Finding out they were machine-washable and zippered in case you'd like to add or remove filling was a huge bonus, too.
And after months of using these pillows, they've retained their fluffy shape and are still comfortable and comforting. My husband and I liked them so much, in fact, that we splurged for another set around Black Friday. I can't recommend these pillows enough.
