The TheraPur® Memory Foam Ice Pillow from Dreams is a high-quality pillow that promises to keep you cool throughout the night while still remaining comfortable and ideal for a number of back and side sleepers. Most owners rate it highly, and the praise is mainly for how cool and comfortable it feels. One described the pillows as “very firm and always cool to the touch”.
Owners are split on the price, with one calling it “money well spent” and another summing it up as “Very expensive mistake”. What several do like is the size. One wrote that it “does the job of two on its own”. What I mean by this is that you get a deeper and bigger pillow than you have been used to previously. The benefit of this larger surface area is that it is able to spread the heat more effectively and since it is made of good quality memory foam you'll find it particularly good at retaining shape and maintaining a slightly firmer feel that will soften with time.
Some owners needed a few days or weeks to get used to it, and a few said it felt hard at first and softened with use. One who took a couple of days to get used to it wrote “have now thrown out all other pillows”. A lot of the happy reviews mention the neck too: “I used to wake up with neck pain, but not anymore.”
It isn't all praise though. Some owners found it too hard or too thick, a few said it left them with a sore neck, and one wrote: “Too big for most standard pillowcases and the pillow itself is too firm.” A smaller number mention a smell when it arrives. For some it cleared after airing or a few days, but one owner said it took three to four weeks and another wrote that it “still stinks 4 wks later”. This is in keeping with the memory foam compound used within the product and is a very common complaint among many purchasers of foam based products. The other common complaint is the cooling. Some owners say the cool feel goes once a pillowcase is on, and others that the pillow warms up in the night: “Initially cool, but ofcourse, has to warm up as your head keeps adding heat.” This is a bit disappointing given the product's niche is around keeping you cool, although this isn't entirely surprising given memory foams' warming properties.
One owner wrote that it “has not slowed down the amount of migraines I have”, and another found it “Not as cooling as they state”. Plenty of owners who get hot at night are happy with it though. One called it a “Game changer for women of a certain age who get warm in bed at night!”
Overall, the TheraPur® Memory Foam Ice Pillow from Dreams is a high-quality product that provides excellent support and comfort while keeping you cool throughout the night. Not every owner gets on with it, and the ones who don't mostly say it is too firm or not cool enough. The pillow is recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and supportive pillow that can help to reduce overheating at night.
