OMEO 2 Pack Bamboo Pillow

Soft, breathable, and never stuffy.

A cover that feels cool to the touch and stays soft all night, for people who sleep warm.

A pillow you can actually shape to fit you — two of them, so both sides of the bed are sorted.

The fill is shredded memory foam rather than a solid block, so it moves with you instead of forcing your head into one position. Add or remove fill through the inner zip until the loft matches how you sleep: fuller for side sleepers who need to bridge the shoulder gap, flatter for back and stomach sleepers.

Why the cover matters

The outer cover is 40% rayon made from bamboo, blended with polyester. Rayon made from bamboo breathes and moves heat away more readily than a plain cotton-poly case, which is what keeps the surface feeling cool through the night rather than holding warmth like dense foam tends to. The whole cover unzips and goes in the washing machine.

Choosing your size

• King — 20" x 36": the most room to move; suits larger beds and anyone who shifts position through the night.
• Queen — 20" x 30": the standard choice for most double and queen beds.
• Standard — 20" x 26": a more compact loft, good for smaller frames and guest rooms.

What to expect when it arrives

These ship compressed to keep the box small, so they arrive flat. Unzip the outer cover, break up the foam with your hands and give them 24 to 48 hours to reach full loft — they will look noticeably thin until they do. New memory foam also carries a faint manufacturing smell that airs out within about a week; leaving them uncovered in a ventilated room speeds that up. Neither is a fault, and both settle on their own.

Getting the loft right

Most people start with slightly too much fill. Sleep on it two or three nights before deciding — memory foam compresses under body heat, so a pillow that feels high on night one usually settles. If it still sits too tall, take a handful out through the inner zip and keep it aside; you can always put it back.

Questions people ask before they buy

Why does a new memory foam pillow smell?

This is the most common complaint about any new foam pillow, ours included, so it is worth being straight about. Shredded memory foam off-gasses after being sealed in vacuum packaging, and some people find the smell strong rather than faint. Unzip the cover, leave the pillows uncovered in a ventilated room, and it fades over about a week. Washing the covers before first use helps. If it has not settled by then, send them back under the 30-day return policy.

Why did my pillows arrive flat and thin?

They ship compressed so the box stays small and shipping stays free. Break the foam up with your hands and give them 24 to 48 hours to reach full loft. They will look noticeably thin until they do. That is not a fault.

Are these too firm, or too soft?

Neither, by design — you set it. There is an inner zip beneath the outer cover. Remove a handful of fill to soften and lower the pillow, or add it back to firm it up. Sleep on it two or three nights before adjusting, because foam compresses under body heat and a pillow that feels high on night one usually settles.

Do bamboo pillows actually sleep cooler?

The cover is what you feel. Rayon made from bamboo moves heat away from the skin more readily than a dense cotton-poly case, so the surface stays cool to the touch. The fill matters more: shredded foam has air gaps between the pieces that a solid block does not. Our guide to the best pillow for hot sleepers explains what to look for.

Which size should I choose?

Match the pillow to the bed, then to how much you move. Standard (20" x 26") suits single beds and guest rooms, Queen (20" x 30") fits most double and queen beds and is the usual choice, and King (20" x 36") gives extra room if you shift position through the night.

Can I put the pillow in the washing machine?

Wash the cover, not the foam. The outer cover unzips and is machine washable. Shredded memory foam should never go in a washing machine or dryer — spot-clean it and let it air dry fully.

Can I use these if I sleep on my stomach?

Yes, but take fill out first. Stomach sleepers generally want the flattest setting, since a tall pillow pushes the neck out of line. Back sleepers usually land in the middle, and side sleepers want it fullest to bridge the gap between shoulder and head.
