The Ultra Slim Max Cool pillow is a specialized sleep solution for those who require a very low-profile surface. At just 2.75 inches high, this chassis is designed to keep the neck in a neutral position, which helps prevent the strain often caused by thicker pillows when sleeping on the stomach or back. The core is made of a high-density memory foam that provides support without allowing the head to sink through to the mattress surface.
A notable feature is the infusion of carbon particles within the gel memory foam. These particles are included to improve thermal conductivity, helping to pull heat away from the face. Specifications indicate the use of bamboo charcoal, which also helps neutralize common factory scents. The curved-edge radius is a practical design choice that prevents the edges from digging into the shoulders or neck during sleep transitions.
The performance of the foam can be affected by room temperature; it may feel firmer in rooms below 65°F. To maximize the heat-wicking properties, it is best to use a highly breathable cover made of Tencel or bamboo. While excellent for stomach sleepers, the thin profile may not provide enough height for those who primarily sleep on their sides.
To ensure the foam reaches its full intended shape, allow the pillow to sit for 72 hours after unboxing before regular use.
If you find that you need more height or the ability to change the loft, the Supa Modern Shredded Memory Foam pillows offer a customizable fill system.
