Read the full description
Remiris is a pack of 2 bed pillows that are not the same as each other. One is a contour pillow in cream, with a wave-shaped foam core and a cover that comes off; the other is a quilted knit pillow with a hollow in the middle for your head and a soft, adaptable filling. The idea is to alternate them: the contour one, cooler and firmer, for the warm months, and the knitted one, plumper, for the cold months. Or whichever you fancy each night.
Pillows for summer and winter: two feels in one pack
Some people change their duvet with the season and keep the same pillow all year. This set suggests the opposite: keep two pillows with a different feel to hand and use the one that suits you best at each moment. One feels cooler and firmer when you rest your head on it; the other, softer and more enveloping.
Cool and plump describe here how they feel to the touch. Neither of them changes the temperature of the bedroom.
The contour pillow: the cooler of the two, for summer
It is cream-coloured and, seen from the side, has a wave shape: a higher edge, a lower edge and a sunken area in between for the head. The core is a piece of moulded foam that keeps that shape, which is why it feels firmer than a pillow with a loose filling.
The cover is a breathable fabric and comes off to be washed following its label. The exact materials of the core and the cover are listed in the specifications table.
The knitted pillow: the plumper one, for winter
The second pillow is something else. Its surface is a quilted knit, with a raised pattern you can feel as you run your hand over it, and a dark band runs all the way round the side. In the middle it has a shaped hollow for the head, surrounded by higher edges that tuck in around it at the sides.
Inside there is a soft filling that gives easily and adapts as you rest your head, so it is the plumper and cosier pillow in the pack. Like any pillow with a soft filling, it benefits from being plumped up by hand from time to time.
How to use your set of 2 pillows
Unpack them and let them take shape
Remove the wrapping and leave them for a few hours in a ventilated room. They regain their volume and lose the new smell.
Start with the one for the season
In warm weather, try the contour pillow; in cold weather, the knitted one. It is a suggestion: your own taste decides.
Position each one properly
On the contour pillow, your head goes in the sunken area. On the knitted one, in the central hollow, with the higher edges at the sides.
Store the one you are not using
Keep it in a dry place, inside a fabric bag and with no weight on top, until its turn comes round again.
Care and washing for each pillow
- Contour pillow: take the cover off and wash it as the label says.
- The foam core is not washed and does not go in the tumble dryer. Air it and, if it gets marked, wipe it with a barely damp cloth.
- Knitted pillow: it is washable. Follow the instructions on its label and let it dry completely before using it.
- Plump up the knitted pillow by hand after washing to spread the filling evenly.
Frequently asked questions
What does the pack of 2 pillows include?
Two different bed pillows. A contour pillow in cream, with a wave-shaped foam core and a breathable cover that comes off. And a quilted knit pillow, with a central hollow for the head, raised edges and a dark band round the side. It does not include extra pillowcases or any other bed linen.
Which pillow is better for summer and which for winter?
The contour pillow feels cooler and firmer, which is why it tends to appeal in warm weather. The knitted one, plumper and more enveloping, suits the cold better. It is not a rule: some people use the same one all year and keep the other for reading in bed or for guests. Go by your own taste.
Are they two matching pillows for a double bed?
No. This set of 2 pillows brings together two models that differ in shape, feel and colour, intended for one person to alternate. Two people can share them, of course, but each will sleep on a different pillow. If what you want is an identical pair to dress the bed, another kind of pack will suit you better.
How are the two pillows washed?
Each in its own way. On the contour pillow you wash the cover, which comes off; the foam core should not get wet or go in the washing machine. The knitted one is washable: follow what its label says and dry it completely, plumping it up at the end so the filling is evenly spread.
Do they fit a standard pillowcase?
A pillowcase of the right size suits the knitted pillow, although it hides the quilting and the hollow is less noticeable. The contour pillow has a shaped surface, so a loose or stretchy pillowcase suits it better. Compare the measurements in the specifications table with those of your pillowcases before deciding.
Does the cooler summer pillow actually cool?
No. It is the cooler of the two because its cover is breathable and its firm core does not wrap around your head as much as a soft filling does. It is a feel to the touch, not a cooling system: it does not lower the temperature and it does not replace airing the bedroom on hot nights.
