The TEMPUR-Cloud Dual Cooling pillow is constructed from a high-density, solid core of proprietary TEMPUR material. Unlike shredded alternatives, this molded viscoelastic core provides a consistent surface that compresses approximately 40% under the weight of the head. This design is particularly effective at isolating motion and providing firm pressure relief, making it a sturdy choice for those who remain in one position throughout the night.
The cooling features are integrated into the cover, which uses high-thermal-conductivity yarn and a gel-layer interface. This setup is designed to pull heat away from the body during the initial hours of sleep. Because the material is temperature-sensitive, it may feel firm in cooler rooms until it absorbs body heat and begins to soften and contour to the neck.
Measurements show a 5-inch loft, which specifications indicate is anatomically suitable for back sleepers. Users should be aware that the high-density nature of the foam makes the pillow heavier and more difficult to move mid-sleep than fiber-filled options. A break-in period of one to two weeks is typically required for the polymers to lose their initial stiffness.
Because the solid core acts as a thermal sink, the cooling effect is most noticeable upon initial contact. To maintain the effectiveness of the gel layer, it is helpful to use a thin, breathable pillowcase.
For sleepers who find solid foam too rigid and prefer an adjustable height, the Qutool Shredded Foam set allows for the removal of internal fill to customize support.
