The Qutool Cooling Pillow set features an adjustable design that allows for significant customization of the internal fill. Rather than using a solid block of foam, this unit uses shredded memory foam blended with gel-infused particles. This geometry is designed to facilitate passive airflow through the spaces between the foam fragments, which helps move heat away from the surface during use. The outer cover is crafted from a high-density "Ice Silk" fabric, which tests show dissipates heat faster than standard cotton materials.
Customization and Maintenance
Specifications indicate that the loft can be adjusted by removing or adding the included extra foam fill, allowing users to find a height that supports proper neck alignment. This flexibility helps prevent the permanent dipping often found in solid foam products. However, because the fill is loose, changing the volume can be a high-friction process that results in foam scattering. This pillow is also notably heavier than down alternatives, making it a sturdy presence on the bed.
To maximize the performance of the shredded foam, it is recommended to tumble dry the pillows on low heat for 15 minutes upon arrival. This helps the compressed cells expand and breaks the surface tension from packaging.
While the materials are designed to resist early wear, users should expect a 24-48 hour period for factory scents to dissipate. The high-density build provides firm support, but the cooling features are best described as passive heat dissipation rather than active refrigeration. Once the materials reach room temperature, the cooling sensation may level off.
For those who prefer a more traditional feel without the weight of memory foam, the Beckham Hotel Collection pillows offer a high-loft down alternative that maintains its shape through internal baffling.
