She also assessed how well they sprang back after resting under a 25-pound weight overnight, and even washed the components that could be cleaned (the covers, in this case). Okay, she didn’t subject them to actual flames, but she did measure their temperature under a heated blanket. Sarah Hagman, a Reviewed editor, tested the Purple Pillow for back sleeping, as it’s her preferred position.Īfter the at-home sleep stint, both Purple pillows went into the Reviewed labs for trials by fire with our senior scientist, Julia MacDougall.
