Pillows are meant to provide the correct support for your neck and spine while you are sleeping. Therefore, the position in which you sleep plays a role in deciding which pillow best meets your needs. The firmness of a pillow is determined by the materials contained in the fill, as well as the amount of filling material in the pillow. The more fill present, the firmer a pillow will feel. Different combinations of filling materials are used to create varying comfort levels and lend additional features and benefits.
