Construction

The Night Pillow is made from a memory foam core and a silk / polyester cover. The memory foam core is designed to provide a balanced level of moldability and support.

You can get the Night Pillow in either a standard queen or king size.

Cover

The cover of the Night pillow is constructed with an inner lining of 100 percent polyester and an outer lining of silk (95 percent) and polyester (5 percent). The pillow also contains a 100 percent polyester gusset that runs along the perimeter of the pillow. Overall, the cover has a tight fit all the way around the pillow and seems to be well made.

Per the brand’s mission, Night states that their cover is designed to promote healthy skin and hair. I’m not sure how much better my hair or skin felt after sleeping with the Night for many weeks, but the cover does feel extremely nice to lie on.

Aesthetically, this pillow is all black and has a wavy lined design running along the gusset. Night took a different route than most pillows today, steering away from the all white design. The all black color scheme gives the pillow a sleek look, and personally, I’m a fan. Another small side note: the Night pillow does not need a pillow case because of the cover’s silk materials.

Feel and Support

Overall, I really enjoyed the feel of the Night pillow. The memory foam core of this pillow is one of the best I have tested to date. Throughout my sleep test, I tried to sleep on my stomach, side, and back in order to compare the pillow’s ability to adapt to the change. Night did not disappoint, especially when it comes to stomach sleeping. It’s the first memory foam core pillow that I’ve been able to sleep on on in this position. Ideally, I would prefer the loft to be a bit lower, but its shape is highly moldable, so it’s still a good option.

The Night also felt excellent while I was resting on both my side and back. What I like most about this pillow is the relative compact size. I feel like many memory foam core pillows go with the “bigger is better” approach. Having a standard size and modest loft works well for the Night.

The memory foam core of this pillow did a great job absorbing the weight of my head and creating a notable contour around my head and neck. This can be a major benefit for those sleepers who are looking to move less during the night, as the ability of the pillow to cradle your head can result in a much more comfortable sleeping experience overall. Although this memory foam core is rounded, I didn’t feel like I was going to roll off of the pillow.

There have been times where I slept on a memory foam pillow and the core did not allow me to stay put. Instead, I felt as if I was having to fight the pillow to get comfortable. Night’s deeper sinkage and hug eliminates this feel.

Cooling is another bonus with the Night pillow. The silk cover is cool to the touch and allows for consistent breathability. Not once did I feel as if the pillow was retaining heat. In addition, the pillow is only offered in a standard size, which makes it easy to move and mold. A lot of times, bigger memory foam pillows can be heavy and hard to move during sleep. The Night pillow is small and light enough to flip over or mold into your favorite position, allowing you to adjust and get right back to sleep.

Is the Night pillow the right choice for me?

I would recommend the Night pillow for sleepers who:

Want a memory foam pillow – Made from 100 percent memory foam, the core of this pillow has a high level of moldability. The pillow does a good job of contouring to your head and neck, relieving pressure.
Want a cool, silk cover – With a silk cover, the Night pillow is able to create a very cool sleeping surface. The inner lining of the pillow is also 100 percent polyester, which helps give the cover a snug fit all the way around the pillow.
Sleep mainly on your side or back – Although sleeping on your stomach is not out of the question with this pillow, side and back sleepers will find this pillow the most comfortable. It should sink a little deeper when you’re on your side and back, allowing your spine to remain in constant alignment.
