JUVEA Elevate High-Profile 2 Pack Natural Talalay Latex Pillows with Tencel Cover - Breathable Supportive High Loft Pillow

I am so happy to order another JUVEA pillow. I love the Queen High, Medium Firm, Tencel pillow. I think everyone should have one! Read more

I am really loving this pillow! I would definitely say it’s NOT medium firm as described (at least for me), it’s a very soft and cloud like which I actually prefer, but the latex still provides some support without feeling to hard. The support is similar to what you get with a down pillow, some but not a ton and minus the annoying content shifting that happens with fills. It’s “smooshy” enough that I can scrunch it up just a bit in places to mold it how I like for just the right support on my back or side and it stays. For optimal spine health, you really want your neck to be straight in any position, not tilted up or down. I am 5’8” and this really is a perfect fit for me as far as comfort and alignment. How firm a pillow feels changes drastically depending on the firmness of your mattress. My mattress is relatively firm (also latex) which gives the effect of less loft since a firm mattress doesn't let the body sink down as far, and thus the deeper your mattress sinks, the more lofty the pillow will feel - something to keep in mind depending your mattress. Also, when I ordered this, I purchased another solid latex pillow on Amazon compare (med-firm one by Organic Textiles), which was a tad to firm and high for my liking and I am keeping the Juvea one only. So, if you need a bit more loft and support, that one would probably better suit your needs. Last, latex does have a slight aroma, which is natural for this material, and dissipates over time. I personally think it smell a bit like "vanilla play dough". I’d take that slightly strange, non-offensive aroma over the harmful, toxic fumes memory foam and synthetic materials anytime. Hope this review can help some folks. Give it a try if you are feeling inclined, they have a good return policy, so there is no risk. Read more

I still have two of these pillows and I loved them. Unfortunately they are not the same. After two weeks of having unpacked it, the pillow is still a lot smaller that what they used to be. This would be to low for someone with neck/cervical problems. It's a pity, I did love them. Read more

I got the medium firm high loft one, in standard. I'm 5'5", narrow shoulders, sleep on an organic latex mattress that's a bit on the firm side. Cons: - Not tall enough for side sleeping because it's a little too soft. It's close, but my shoulder still scrunches up too much because it allows my head to sink in more than anticipated. - The middle is the tallest or most dense part, the edges are not as tall and dense. This means no neck support, but it pushes my head up. I would probably like this pillow if it was an even density from edge to edge, like a flat top. But it's rounded upwards. I always feel like my head is pushed up with a straight neck when I sleep on my back. -Stiff neck in the morning, but my head doesn't ache Pros: -Very well constructed, strong and durable. -No chemical smells (I'm very sensitive!) -Is soft under my head and doesn't create any pressure, so no headaches. -Standard fills out my queen size pillow case. Unfortunately... this just isn't good enough for me. I can see why others would like it, but the shape of it doesn't make sense for my body. I would love this exact softness in a slightly higher loft in a contoured design for neck support. Or honestly, just a flat top. Read more

I ordered the queen high profile pillow, and I do just want to mention that the pillow is not queen size. It is a standard size pillow. Not a big deal to me, but thought it was worth mentioning. Apart from that it is very nice. I am a side and back sleeper with a small frame, and this pillow is very comfortable for me. I am not sure it would be supportive enough for a side sleeper with a larger frame. It is quite bouncy, not super firm. However the fact that it gives consistent support works well for me. I've found that memory foam pillows, especially the shredded foam ones, over time, do not give consistent support and I end up having neck and shoulders issues. The cover on this is very nice too. The smell isn't super strong compared to other latex pillows I've tried, and it seems to dissipate rather quickly. It took about 3-4 hours for the pillow to regain its normal shape after removing from the package. I would recommend giving this a try, however if you are looking for a very firm feeling pillow, in my opinion this probably isn't the one. Read more

I was on a quest for the past 2 months for the perfect pillow. We had used the same latex pillows for the past 15 years (!!!) and it was definitely overdue to find replacements. This quest led me down many roads - online orders, retail stores, you name it. It became a joke just how many pillows passed through this house and straight back into the box for returns. I tried memory foam, shredded memory foam, "regular" stuffed pillows, and down alternative. Then I finally decided to try latex again. To me, it is the PERFECT pillow material, and I am apparently the Goldilocks of pillows. Where everything else was either to flat, too soft, too firm, or too tall, this is perfection. Holds its shape, provides LOTS of support while being soft enough to be comfortable. My husband and I are sleeping noticeably better. It's a steep price tag but hoping they last as long as our old latex pillows, in which case it'll be WELL worth the cost. Read more
