Hot dog industry computing least common multiple tolerated by consumers to ensure you always have a hot dog or a bun left over.
Jokes on them. I like to eat buns raw
Would you say that you raw-dog the buns?
Yeah… human body variation is a bitch to design for.
Even if you have it adjustable, it’s very hard to accommodate everybody. Its usually for 5-95 percentile so even the designers know they are leaving out 10% or less of the population.
There’s also bed firmness. A person with broad shoulders but a soft bed might need a smaller pillow than someone with smaller shoulders and a rock hard bed.
This explains why most pillows are way too flat for me. Relatively broad shoulders and a firm bed. I have a pile of pillows that are just too low/flat.
Ohhhh, they mean like, thickness. My dumbass was thinking total pillows for the bed.
You’re right on both counts tho. It is about thickness but also how many pillows you need in the bed to reach your desired thickness.
Is there a solution to this? It’s been bothering me more recently since my wife bought me a nice pillow
get those pillows that have a bunch of memory foam bits! i love our bamboo pillows since you can take out however much foam you want, and if you take too much out you can just add more fluff back in
100% recommend, it easily solved my pillow issues
I tried so many pillows and then I discovered the Coop pillow. It’s shredded memory foam and comes with a bag of extra filling so you can remove or add to your liking
Absolutely love the COOP pillow too!
Yes, 2 different pillows of different firmness. Firm thick pillow for bottom. Softer medium size pillow for top.
Or two Goldilocks medium pillows depending on your preference.
2 small pillows or two large pillows doesn’t work. Hotel pillows are usually excellent. So check the firmness when at a hotel to see what you like best. Often there are former or softer in the cupboard.
Find the oldest, flattest pillow you have. Fold it in half.
Order 2 and remove some filling from each, been doing it for years now.
How is that different than a pillow that already comes pre-built with less stuffing in it?
Throw pillows. Yes, i mean like the kind you toss on the sides of a sofa
How about slim pillows? I usually put two in a pillowcase. Example: https://a.co/d/drT0UwS
Get a pregnancy pillow, even if you aren’t pregnant, even if you are a guy. You can thank me later.
What? Two is perfect
I use a thick pillow to hug and a folded blanket for my head. The blanket’s thickness can be customized to fit. The real problem is in hotels were both pillows are usually huge, so it’s literally a pain in the neck.
I don’t know what planet you’re living on, but I like 3 pillows.
Magic solution for me? Throw pillows. Meaning like standard decorative pillows you toss onto the side of a sofa. They’re soooo much more comfy and ergonomic for me
EDIT
These are the general kind i mean
Sounds like OP is cheaping out on pillows.
I use a down pillow and if I fluff it once before bedding down, it’s perfect.
And then there’s me, using the same ancient, flat, worn out pillow since 2007. You can only have it by prying it from my cold dead body. I fuckin love that thing, I’ve tried many pillows since then but I always go back to my good old faithful.
Helluva job
Hey! Mom said it was my turn to post it this time!
Best pillow Ive used was full of like uncooked rice or ball bearings or something. It wasnt very soft, but you could make it conform to the back of your head perfectly.
A buckwheat pillow, perhaps? They’re neat!
Idk, it was in a cheap hotel in Osaka or Nagoya whose walls were yellow from smoke and had barely been remodeled since the 80s.
Sounds like the Sobokawa Pillow.
Those infomercials ran all the time back in the day.
I dont think so, the material in this pillow was physically hard
