“Really wanted to love this pillow. I'm 6'2", side sleeper, and have been looking for a tall firm pillow for years. I've tried Levitex for 6 months now. The pillow sounds perfect on paper: bigger sizes for taller people, supportive and decent temperature regulation. Unfortunately the foam is too hard and dense. The main issue with this is that it only suits a side sleeper with perfect posture. I go to sleep on my side and the pillow feels good, but often wake up during the night to find myself sore because I'm slightly twisted, or on my back, and this pillow doesn't accomodate for any other postures apart from a correct side sleeping position. I find this worrying as I often wake up sore and I'm worried about the long term effects of this, probably just as bad as using a generic pillow. The other issue is the side of my face and my ear often feel uncomfortable due to the foam being so hard.
If you can achieve the correct height and support with softer foam I think the product would be more versatile.”
“I used to wake up every morning with stiff neck, headaches and it’s all gone since I started using Levitex pillow three weeks ago. The pillow is firm but at the same time very comfortable. I don’t need to be turning the pillow in the middle of the night either.
Definitely recommend Levitex pillows if you have neck pains.”
“Firm and supportive but still comfortable and I can really notice the difference with how my neck feels in the morning. Took a week or so to get used it to but highly recommend!”
“I bought this pillow for my husband ,he said that I have never slept like this in my life ,Also he is snoring less than before which is good ,it is a great purchase, thank you very much”
“Fantastic pillow, I was looking for a firm and comfortable pillow and I found exactly what I needed. My neck is now in the correct position, I can breathe easier due to my head not sinking into the pillow and my troublesome snoring is greatly reduced.”
Hi Simon
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I'm sorry to hear about your experience. The foam smell is unfortunately typical of UK foam, as we have the strongest fire retardant requirements in the world. It does air out fairly quickly and is harmless so I hope you can give your pillow another chance. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with us at hello@levitex.co.uk if we could be of any further help.
Kind regards
