Which Filling Should I Choose for my Pillow?

At OCOCHI, we offer three luxurious choices: down, down alternative, and mulberry silk-filled pillows. Each type of pillow provides a unique comfort and comes with its own set of functional benefits. Let’s explore the differences and advantages of each to help you make the best choice for you:

Down Pillows

Feel: Down pillows are renowned for their incredible softness and loft. They cradle your head in a cloud-like embrace, providing a plush and luxurious sleep.

Benefits:

  1. Comfort and Support: Down pillows offer excellent support while remaining soft. They conform to the shape of your head and neck, ensuring alignment and reducing pressure points.
  2. Luxuriously Fluffy: Down is traditionally fluffy, giving you that 5* hotel experience night after night
  3. Durability: High-quality down pillows are long-lasting and can maintain their loft and comfort for many years with proper care.

Down Alternative Pillows

Feel: Down alternative pillows mimic the loftiness of down, but due to the nature of the fiber, they can be slightly softer. We use a high-grade down alternative, that is soft, consistent in texture , and durable. They provide a supportive and comfortable feel without the luxurious fluffiness of natural down.

Benefits:

  1. Hypoallergenic: Made from synthetic fibers, down alternative pillows are an excellent choice for those with allergies or sensitivities to natural down.
  2. Easy Care: Although not recommended regularly, they can be washed from time to time in the washer on a cool, gentle cycle.
  3. Affordability: Down alternative pillows are generally more budget-friendly than down or silk, providing a similar comfort level at a lower price.

Mulberry Silk Filled Pillows

Feel: Mulberry silk pillows offer a unique sleeping experience with a soft, smooth, and luxurious feel. They are less fluffy than down but provide a gentle, soothing and supportive surface.

Benefits:

  1. Plush Comfort: Silk pillows provide a plush, sinking feeling that envelops you in soothing, embrace-like comfort.
  2. Quiet: Unlike other materials, silk pillows are incredibly quiet, ensuring an undisturbed night's sleep.
  3. Temperature Regulation: Silk is naturally breathable and helps regulate body temperature, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
  4. Hypoallergenic and Hygienic: Silk is resistant to dust mites, mold, and mildew. It is an excellent choice for those with allergies or skin sensitivities.

All of our pillows can be custom made to any size at OCOCHI, for all custom, standard or oversized mattresses, so you can find the right pillow for your bed size and for your sleeping preferences and comfort.
