Why our sleep experts loved it

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. We’ve taken a lot of feedback on this particular product from customers who have reported that it lives up to its promise, with some noting that it is even more comfortable than traditional memory foam pillows.

Analysing consumer feedback was particularly interesting with customers finding value for money particularly good given the volume of the product provided. What I mean by this is that you get a deeper and bigger pillow than perhaps 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 customers found that it took a couple of days to get used to the pillow, but once they did, they found the true value in the product and migrated all other pillows in their hour to this product. Others noted that since sleeping with the TheraPur pillow, they have felt adequately supported and have been sleeping better as a result.

It wasn’t all great feedback however with a few lingering issues. To start, a few customers mentioned that the pillow has a strong chemical smell initially, but that it dissipates after a few days. This is in keeping with the memory foam compound utilised within the product and is a very common complaint among many purchasers of foam based products. There were other comments surrounding the warmth of the pillow, exclaiming that the “ice” features of the pillow are perhaps a little superficial and that the memory foam will still prove a little “warming” while you sleep. 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 customer noted that the pillow didn't slow down the amount of migraines they have and another said that it was not worth the money as they still overheat. However, many customers love the pillow and find it very comfortable, with one customer saying that it's 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. While some customers may not find it suitable for them, the majority of the customers who have tried it have found it to be worth the investment. The pillow is highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and supportive pillow that can help to reduce overheating at night.

Really love this pillow. I am a side-sleeper and it's the perfect height and firmness to support my head/neck/shoulders without being bulky or going flat, but still feels soft to the touch. The Ice-gel cover zips off (and the fabric cover then zips off of that for washing). Inside there is a standard pillow, which you could swap out for a smaller/flatter pillow if you find it too bulky as it is. I've not tried this as it suits me just fine. You can feel the cooling effect of gel, but the benefit seems to be lost the moment you put a pillow case on - this is the only reason for not giving 5 stars. Otherwise, I would very much recommend.

Luckily, you provided me with the delivery drivers phone number and I was able to call him to confirm time slot and also advise him that it was a slightly tricky time for me. However he was very understanding and waited for me about 20 mins before I was able to get home and receive my new bed. I am very happy with my purchase and the quality of both the product and the delivery & they put it together in good time. The price of my product was slightly over by budget but I am glad I invested as I am sleeping much better and have good value for my money with the 8 year cover package. Thank you Dreams

Having spent a small fortune on trying to find the right pillow I was sceptical that this would really be that different. I was wrong... Having been supported in my purchase by the most helpful member of staff I left the store hopeful but anticipating the worst.. I have never been more delighted... This dingle pillow has replaced the two I used to use... I have no stress on my neck... Sleep better than ever before and all of this without overheating... No more buying expensive pillows just to have to throw them.. I have found a pillow for life!

The jury is still out on this pillow. I've had it for many weeks now and I'm getting used to it, but I'm not sure it's the pillow for me. Taking it out of its case and seeing what it was made from was very helpful as I was able to understand how "memory" aspect worked but there is still something about it that I'm not enjoying. But this is personal preference, right? As to the "ice" feature - I'm unconvinced on this one but I guess unless you have a non-ice pillow to compare it to .....

I have had this mattress for 3 weeks and its wonderful. I have car crash related back problems and, despite my last mattress being a different brand of memory foam, never sleep on my back. I can now. When I lay on the mattress it feels slightly firm and then starts to move and suck me down into it, gently cradled and perfectly supported. My husband has very different sleeping patterns and he loves it too. One problem - we dont want to get up in the mornings, it really is that lovely.

Great support, good depth and stays cool. I've been looking for a pillow like this for quite a while, as I'm a side sleeper and finding one the right height to keep my neck aligned is difficult. I must have tried about 20 different pillows in various combinations before finding this one which suits me completely. The price was a bit of a shock, but after trying the pillow out in the Dreams shop in Bristol, I have to say it is worth every penny.

Chunky, firm and a good size. I no longer need two pillows since this does the job of two on its own. How cool it is actually depends largely on what kind of pillow case you put on it. It requires a cool material to maximise the properties of the pillow itself. The pillow feels sturdy and, I hope, long lasting. It is certainly comfortable and cool before my body heat warms it up. I'm liking it after a month of use.

Decent enough pillow, good height and plumpness but dont really feel the coolness after a while so still end up turning it over etc to get the cool side. Im a side sleeper and have def felt an improvement in my neck since buying this pillow so worth it from that perspective. You cant wash the cover so you still haveto put a normal piillow case on.. i guess thats why im not feeling the full cooling effect.

Having night sweats is a serious issue, this pillow helps enormously by keeping me cool. I would highly recommend this product if you are suffering or even if you just get warm in the night. The gel pillow helps by keeping your head cool. it is also extremely comfortable too. Fits a regular pillow case and is not too high or hard like most competitors pillows. I love it. It has changed my life.

This pillow is an ok foam pillow. It can keep you cool if you use it without a cover on but as soon as you put a cover on its just like every other pillow. The thickness of this pillow is thinner than expected and doesn't give much support if that's what you're looking for. Overall its an ok pillow but I wouldn't buy one again especially for the price go for a different brand like simba.

This pillow is great for someone who wants a pillow that doesnt loose shape or get hot at night. It is also good for someone with neck and shoulder pain. I have slept a lot better since having this pillow. I use soft/ medium firmness but it also comes in firm/ hard. I suffer from getting really hot at night but I find I am not using this pillow. I would definitely recommend.

It has been nearly a month that we purchased this mattress and since then my sleep quality has greatly improved. No more back ache or turning around to find the correct position. It is made of very good quality materials and you can feel it throughout. Handles on all for sides of this mattres make it way easier to turn it around even on your own.

Please can you advise what size pillow case the TheraPur memory foam ice pillow fits as none of my standard pillow cases fit, as although they are correct in length and width the pillow is far too deep to fit in?

Answer: Thank you for reaching out with your question. This has been looked into for you and this pillow should fit in UK standard pillow cases. I do apologise for the inconvenience and do get in contact with the customer service team if you are still having issues. .

Just spent the first night with new pillow and feel very disappointed. No cooler than any of my other pillows. Am I doing something wrong? Should I remove the foam cover to experience ultimate coolness?

Answer: Thanks for getting in touch! The knitted cover does have cooling tendencies so I would not remove this. Perhaps get in touch with the customer service team who may be able to reassure you on this one. Thanks, Dreams.

Does this pillow have a removeable cover for washing? Also does a standard size pillowcase fit? Thanks.

Answer: The pillow cover can be unzipped and washed. The foam will need to be removed to avoid damage. The Pillow should fit a standard pillow case.
