How do I choose the right pillow height?

At Ringsted Dun, we have a pillow for all needs and sleeping positions. We have pillows in heights that range from extra low to extra high. Before choosing which pillow works the best for you, you should ask yourself a number of questions:

  • What is a good pillow for me?
  • Do I need a pillow that is good for the neck?
  • Do I need a low, medium-height or high pillow?
  • What is my sleeping position?

We have prepared this guide on how to choose the right pillow. Read the guide here.

If you often sleep on your back or stomach, you can choose an extra low or a low pillow. It depends on what you are used to and prefer. The cavity between the mattress and the neck will not be large, and therefore it does not take much to support your spine.

Our extra low pillow is also the right choice for juniors’ first adult pillow.

If you often sleep on your back or stomach, you can choose an extra low or a low pillow. It depends on what you are used to and prefer. The cavity between the mattress and the neck will not be large, and therefore it does not take much to support your spine.

If it is more important to you that the pillow is soft and malleable than it supports and lifts, choose a pillow that has more down than small feathers.

If you often sleep on your back or side, you can choose one between pillows. The type of pillow that suits you exactly depends on the softness of the mattress, the way you lie, your shoulder width and the curvature of your back.

If it is more important to you that the pillow supports and lifts, rather than it being soft and malleable, your pillow should have more small feathers than down. Of course, small feathers are not quite as soft as down, but on the other hand, a pillow with the most feathers keeps its shape better throughout the night – here a 3-chamber pillow really comes into its own.

If you often sleep on the side, then you can choose a high or an extra high pillow – what you prefer depends on your sleeping position and what you are used to. The high cushion supports and lifts both head and neck – a 3-chamber is an optimal choice.

Our extra high pillows are for you who want to get a lot of extra support for your head when you sleep.
