I’ve lost count of how many pillows I’ve tried in the pursuit of a better night’s sleep. Some are too firm, others flatten within weeks, and there’s always that familiar moment in the middle of the night when you’re folding and flipping your pillow in a desperate attempt to get comfortable. So, when I heard about Simba’s hybrid pillow, which promises to combine softness with proper support – and can be adjusted to suit how you sleep – I was intrigued.
Rather than relying on one slab of memory foam, the pillow is filled with hundreds of tiny open-cell foam ‘nanocubes’. They give it a softer, more mouldable feel than traditional memory foam, while still providing the pressure-relieving support you’d expect from a foam pillow. Crucially, you can unzip the cover and add or remove the nanocubes yourself, allowing you to alter the pillow’s height and firmness until it feels right for you.
