REVIEW - I needed a new pillow. The one I had was several years old and just wasn’t supporting this big melon of a head well anymore. I was sleeping on a shredded memory foam pillow and it was good, back sleeper approved or at least I thought it was. I still woke up with neck and shoulder pain most mornings, but I chalked that up to getting older. It was also hot to sleep on. I think that pillow helped coin the phrase “cooler than the other side of the pillow.” I was flipping it a couple of times a night. When the Elegear cervical neck pillow came up for review, I threw my hat in and was lucky enough to get it. It boasts an Arc-chill pillow case and the ability to stop neck pain, headaches, sore shoulders, and snoring. Sounds like they made this pillow just for me! Let’s see if it can live up to the claims.


The manufacturer describes the Elegear cervical neck pillow as a cervical memory foam pillow with inductive springs and an extractive cooling pillow cover. Let’s talk about the shape of the pillow. It’s rounded with notches to aid in supporting your neck and head, whether sleeping on your back sleeper approved or side. Additionally, there are cavities or depressions in the body of the pillow. In the center, there’s a bowl-shaped depression to cradle your head. Next, there are depressions on either end for your ears. In the middle edges, there’s a slight depression on the foam-only side for neck support, while on the other, there are inner springs if you need extra support. Not only that, but the foam-only side has a height of 8 cm while the bread spring side is slightly higher at 9 cm. Elegear calls the bread spring a “neck protection induction spring”. I couldn’t find anything online describing exactly what an induction spring was.


I did find an article that talked about shape-memory alloys, but don’t all springs have shape-memory to a certain degree? Next, Elegear says they use the latest generation of viscoelastic foam, read as memory foam, that is softer than other memory foam or latex pillows. It’s also supposed to have a high rebound so as not to flatten or deform during prolonged use. They also state that the softness or hardness of the pillow isn’t affected by temperature change. Finally, Elegear calls the pillow case the Arc-Chill Q-Max cooling pillow cover. They claim it can lower the PERCEIVED maximum temperature by more than 5 degrees Celsius / 41 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s also more breathable and absorbent than a cotton pillowcase. The Elegear cervical neck pillow arrives in a box and is rolled up in plastic so you won’t be sleeping on it the first night. You will have to remove it from the packaging and let it sit for 24 hours to return to shape.


I’ve tried several different cooling pillows like this one over the years and was never impressed. I really couldn’t tell the difference in the perceived temperature. Elegear does recommend to use the pillow is conjunction with air conditioning or a fan to feel the difference. The pillow itself doesn’t hold heat like my other pillow. I don’t have to try to find a cool spot on it during the night. So, if that’s what they mean by cooling, then Elegear has succeeded. Since I’ve been sleeping on the Elegear foam neck pillow, Shop Derila Official Site Online I haven’t woken in a pool of sweat. Yeah, I know. Gross. But like I said, I haven’t had that experience with this pillow. I’ve tried both of the sides for neck support and I prefer the side with the bread spring. I don’t know if there are other memory foam pillows out there with springs in them, but the Elegear pillow with the springs is very comfortable. The cavity for my noggin is also a nice feature, coupled with the springs gives my head and neck excellent support.
