Simba Hybrid® Pillow, with Temperature regulating Stratos technology & Customisable height (45 x 70cm)

Delivered promptly as well protected parcel. This pillow was chosen as its thickness is adjustable thus meeting my neck problem. On unpacking the actual pillow was inside a black fabric zip up bag with the zip tied shut. The pillow has a pillow protector style cover with a zip closer at one end. Ventilation fabric runs round all four sides. It is good quality and adequately strong. Washing instructions included. The final section of the pillow uses a relatively light fabric holding the stuffing which is packed in tight. The stuffing is 10 mm foam cubes. The foam is fairly dense and recovers immediately when crushed. The pillow hardness is on a par with a down filled pillow.. For my use some four handfuls of stuffing have been removed. A bag is included for storing removed stuffing but is too small. This pillow is used inside an ordinary pillow slip. In use the pillow does not feal lumpy from the foam filling. Possible down side. If the pillow would be subject to strong sunlight the manufactures spec does not say if the foam filling is uv resistent.

The pillow is very comfortable good nights sleep from day one although a bit pricey

The Simba Hybrid Pillow is a high-end pillow designed to offer personalized support and comfort to individuals. This pillow features a unique combination of materials, including foam and microfiber, to provide a supportive yet comfortable sleeping experience.One of the standout features of the pillow is its adjustable height. The pillow comes with five removable foam nanocubes, allowing individuals to adjust the height and firmness of the pillow to suit their preferences. This makes the pillow suitable for a variety of sleeping positions and preferences.Another notable feature is its breathable design. The pillow cover is made from a breathable cotton material, while the inner layer is designed to allow for increased air flow, reducing heat buildup during sleep.Overall, this is a high-quality pillow that offers personalised support and comfort. While it is more expensive than some other pillows on the market, its adjustable height and breathable design make it a worthwhile investment for those looking for a premium pillow that can help improve their sleep quality.

Firm and highly supportive, with adjustable foam to cater to individual needs. However, I have found it to be very comfortable as it is.One observation I made upon receiving the pillow was that it appeared slightly higher than a normal or standard pillow.

I’m really enjoying adding and taking out the nano cubes to create my perfect pillow. I’m nearly there. I think this is a great concept as let’s me explore all options. I was amazed by the amount of cubes that came with the pillow. Given that I have very few, I have enough to make another one for my husband by using a zip mattress protector to house the cubes. As the main pillow case is very large, I think it’s slightly over sized when trying to get it in my standard pillow case, which for me means less nanotubes in my pillow. It’s an expensive purchase, but I think it’s worth it for the versatility it brings. And of course it’s very comfortable and you have no feeling of the cubes at all, just softness.

I bought a Simba Hybrid Pillow, and I like it. I used it without a pillowcase, and I liked the feel of the 'Stratos' fabric, particularly the 'crisp' one on one side, and so I don't want to cover it with a pillowcase: that would rather defeat the object of the exercise. The makers place a lot of emphasis on the cooling qualities of the covering material: ''THE COOLEST INNOVATION EVER: Amazing Stratos fabric technology keeps you cooler by reacting to your body temperature '' But if your head isn't actually in contact with said fabric, but with a bog-standard pillowcase...?I still sweat sometimes, so every now and then the pillow needs to be washed to restore freshness. It would be ideal if one could buy an extra outer cover, so that the pillow could be used continuously, with a spare cover in place while washing the cover of the original. But I contacted the makers, and they say they won't sell spare covers.I am sure other users must have had the same problem. For this reason, I can't give the product a 5-star rating, although I think it's a good product.

I purchased this 4 months ago and delayed any review to see how I got on with it. Past pillows, of various prices, all tended to get flat, lumpy or less effective after a few months and I was after something that would be comfortable but would also last. I can get a stiff neck and want a supportive but comfortable pillow.This was not cheap compared to normal pillows but, as time has gone on, I consider it more than worth the investment.On arrival I initially found it slightly to high and was dubious about how firm it felt. However, a bit of kneading and getting used to it meant that after a couple of nights I was finding it very comfortable and supportive.The inner part of the pillow is a bag containing a lot of small foam shapes that will move around a bit to form a shape where your head goes. It is a few second to pick up the pillow and shake it around if you do not like this. I have also read about some people taking out some of the foam shapes, but I found that just massaging the pillow to form the shape you want was sufficient.The outer cover is pretty thick and provides additional softness and comfort. I also put a normal pillow cover over it, but the outer cover is washable and does wash and tumble dry up a treat.All in all, very pleased. It looks as if this will last a long time, there is no sign of it becoming worn or tired, it has retained the support and comfort throughout and it is probably working out cheaper than buying new pillows every two or three months.
