Great pillow

I purchased this pillow last week.
I always have disturbed sleep for not being able to find
a comfortable position.
This pillow seems to have helped already.
Not even a week using it yet.
I love it.No stiff neck in the morning.
I know it will help me try to get restful sleep rather than tossing and turning all night long

No indication on size or dimensions of…

No indication on size or dimensions of the pillow so it does seem larger than expected.

There should be some indication on the website listing about what body type it would suit as i'm a slim frame and petite.

Surely that goes against the Trade Descriptions Act 1968 if you mis-describe something's size or leave it out?

I may have to return it.

Warning!!

Warning!!
Dreadful service, been waiting over two weeks despite paying for express service. Emailed and no response.
Telephoned and got through to a call centre who promised it would be with me the next day- guess what, it wasn’t.
Still waiting , beginning to doubt it’s even a real company , buyer beware !!!
Update- despite comment saying it would be here, it isn’t. I’m now being told it’s DHL fault

Hi Clare,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience — that’s certainly not the level of service we aim to deliver, and we completely understand your frustration.

After checking, we can confirm that your order is out for delivery today with DHL (estimated around 16:43). You should receive it shortly, and we truly appreciate your patience during this delay.

We also apologise if our communication hasn’t been up to standard — we’re currently resolving some technical issues that affected response times and fulfilment, but we’re working hard to improve this.

If you still have any concerns once your order arrives, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly to us at support@britishpillow.co.uk — we’re here to help and make things right.

Kind regards,

Hi there,

Thanks for your feedback, and we're really sorry to hear you're not satisfied. After checking our records, we couldn’t find a pillow order under your name — it looks like you may have purchased a pillowcase from us, but not the actual pillow.

It’s possible the pillow you received came from a different seller or website. Our official pillows are only sold via our website and selected authorised platforms, and all product dimensions are clearly listed on our product pages.

If you believe there’s been a mix-up or would like us to help clarify, feel free to contact us directly at support@britishpillow.co.uk — we’re always happy to help.

Warm regards,

Best pillow ever

After spending weeks with constant neck and back pain I bought the Orthopaedic pillow and can honestly say it's the best pillow I have ever bought. My neck and back pain have gone and I sleep so much better, and it is so comfortable. Can most definitely recommend.

I brought this pillow for my partner…

I brought this pillow for my partner who has suffered with very bad neck, shoulder and back pain in the mornings for years. We have tried many different pillows so was not too sure how this pillow would be. From the first nights use he has had no pain in any of the areas that were previously a problem. He said he had a great sleep and was impressed with how he was in the morning. I have waited a few weeks to write this review incase it was a few nights of it working then it not but I’m pleased to say this was not the case. He has had no pain since using the pillow, it is amazing! Would highly recommend if you suffer with back, neck or shoulder pain. Excellent produce and it works!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review! 🙏
We’re genuinely thrilled to hear that your partner has experienced such a positive transformation — especially after years of struggling with neck, shoulder, and back pain.
It means the world to us to know that the pillow is making a real difference in his sleep and daily comfort.

We truly appreciate your recommendation and kind words — and we're so glad to hear it’s still working weeks later!

Wishing you both many more pain-free, restful nights.

Bad smell…

Unable to use the two we have purchased so far due to the terrible smell. Hoping we will be able to use in the future if I can manage to get rid of it. Very disappointed so far

I have had problems looking for a pillow for me I got this one from the pillow company yes it might be a bit more money than other pillows but since I have used this pillow I can safely say I have not woken up once I sleep through the night seven to eight hours every night I would recommend this pillow to anybody 100%

It’s completely natural to feel a bit sceptical at first — we hear that a lot — so we're thrilled to know the pillow won you over from night one.
We’re especially glad to hear you're waking up feeling better. That’s exactly what we love to deliver.

Thanks again for the recommendation, and here’s to many more great nights ahead!

Very comfortable

I am getting some relief from the ergonomic design, won’t go back to traditional pillows now.
Purchased a pillow cover so I can swap out and wash but I am also putting it in a traditional pillow case so I can use my aromatherapy spotting. I did notice the foam had holes in where the pillow topper cover had been secured. Meaning the actual pillow is made of foam so I was being as careful as I could when replacing the pillow cover.

We’re glad to hear you're getting relief from the ergonomic design — and that you won't be going back to traditional pillows any time soon!

Great idea using your own pillowcase with aromatherapy — that’s a lovely personal touch. And yes, you're absolutely right — the pillow is made from premium memory foam, and the small holes are from the manufacturing process where the inner cover is secured. They don’t affect performance at all, but being gentle when swapping covers is definitely the right approach.

Thanks again for your thoughtful review — wishing you many more restful nights!

Great company

Great company, I had a small delay with delivery but was kept informed at all times.
I ordered 2 pillows only 1 came, after sending an email about this the other pillow was sent next day, nothing was a problem I even received a phone call to confirm my address and they apologized for the mix up.
And the pillows are great, very comfortable and amazing quality.
