Brightr Sleep Pillow Reviews UK (2024)

Tell me more about the Brightr Eclipse Firm Memory Foam Pillow

The Brightr Eclipse Firm Memory Foam Pillow is the ultimate solution for support and pressure relief for your neck and spine.

This support pillow features a unique 4-layer adjustable design that allows you to customise it to your desired comfort level while keeping its shape and maintaining a cool sleep environment.

The Eclipse memory foam layers

Designed with an emphasis on support, the Brightr Eclipse Pillow is an ergonomic memory foam pillow that cradles your neck and head, promoting proper alignment and reducing tension and discomfort. 🥰

This makes it an ideal choice for side sleepers who require extra support.

Memory foam is characterised by its memory imprint, which means it'll contour around the shape of your head and neck for more targeted support and pressure relief. 🤗

This pillow is ideal if you're struggling with shoulder pain and offers great neck support for a better night's sleep. 

Memory foam usually retains heat, but Brightr uses cooling graphene memory foam, which helps regulate temperature and wicks away moisture. 💦

This promotes a cooler and more comfortable sleep throughout the night.

We tested the Eclipse pillow during a UK heatwave and never felt too hot or uncomfortable on the pillow.

Instead of having one solid chunk of memory foam, Brightr has split the memory foam into four layers that slot together like Tetris pieces.

The layers also have different thickness levels, which gives you a good number of building blocks to design your perfect pillow height and firmness level.

While the Eclipse pillow will be much firmer than the others in the Brightr Sleep range, you can still move from a medium-firm to a firm feel, depending on your composition of the layers. 🧱

40% copper-infused pillow cover

The Eclipse pillow's signature copper-infused cover provides protection against allergens and bacteria that can cause breakouts. 🦠

With 40% premium copper fibres woven into the cover, it offers a hypoallergenic sleep surface that is gentle on your skin.

Copper's antimicrobial properties help fight bacteria, viruses, and allergens, ensuring a hygienic and allergy-free sleep.

The pillow cover is really thick, which adds a nice level of softness and comfort to the firmer memory foam.

It has a zip that stretches over two sides so you can take out the memory foam layers, which are further protected by a zipped casing.

The four separate layers are in this second casing. 👍

Both the casing and the pillow cover are easy to unzip and zip up again. 

Brightr Eclipse pillow size

Like the other pillows in the Brightr Sleep range, the Eclipse pillow has dimensions of 45 x 65 cm (17.7 x 25.6 inches).

The exact height of the pillow will differ according to how many layers - and which layers - you decide to keep in the pillow. 

• High loft with 4 layers and an average height of 18 cm (7 inches)
• Medium-high loft with 3 layers and an average height of 16 cm (6.3 inches)
• Medium loft with 2 layers and an average height of 12 cm (4.7 inches)
• Lower loft with 1 layer and an average height of 6 - 10 cm (2.3 - 3.9 inches)

Side sleepers generally need higher-loft pillows, while back sleepers require medium lofts and front sleepers lower lofts. 😁

The exact pillow loft you need will depend on your body and the mattress you use.

For example, one of our side sleeper testers had a smaller build and used this pillow on a medium-firm mattress. 

This means that the mattress didn't give way much, and the pillow needed to adequately fill the gap between the shoulder and the head.

For our test sleeper, using the two thicker memory foam layers with one thin layer in this pillow was ample. 

But a side sleeper of a larger build may need all four layers to adequately fill the space.

Offering four layers of different thicknesses makes the Brightr Eclipse pillow uniquely qualified to meet most (if not all) sleep requirements. 

Eclipse pillow delivery

Like all Brightr pillows, the Brightr Eclipse is delivered plastic-free, vacuum-packed and tightly rolled up in a bag placed in a cardboard cylinder. 🎁

As you'll see from the photo below, the Eclipse pillow will hold its shape much more tightly than the other pillows, which popped back to their original size as soon as they were released from the bag.

This is because memory foam is more compressible than other materials, and it'll take a few moments longer to expand.

Our pillow expanded to its full height in under 30 minutes. ⏰

We did notice very faint off-gassing (which is normal for compressed memory foam products), but this also disappeared within a few minutes in a well-ventilated room.

Delivery takes place within 2 - 4 days of ordering, and you'll get to enjoy a 30-night trial that starts with delivery.

If you're not 100% happy with your pillow, simply send it back to Brightr for a full refund. 

Tell me more about the Brightr Luna Adjustable Memory Foam Pillow

The Brightr Luna Adjustable Memory Foam Pillow features graphene memory foam, designed to keep you cool throughout the night while providing unparalleled comfort. ❄️

Luna's memory foam layers

Inside the Luna pillow cover, you'll find three separate layers that are filled with shredded graphene memory foam.

The graphene adds extra cooling and breathability features to memory foam, which otherwise can sleep quite warm.

Memory foam, as a standard, offers contouring support, but the shredded foam in the Luna pillow gives a bit more mouldability to the pillow as well. 🤗

This is great if you want to bunch up your pillow while sleeping, but you just need to ensure that you level out each layer before placing it in the pillow cover for an even sleep. 

We found that, overall, the layers have a medium-firm feel, but the exact firmness you'll experience will depend on your composition of layers.

Each layer in the Luna pillow also has a different thickness level, and the thinner layer will feel much softer than the thickest layer. 🙌

You can adjust and combine the levels to reach your ideal pillow loft and firmness. 

Copper-infused pillow cover

The Brightr Luna pillow is equipped with a thick anti-bacterial cover. 🦠

This 40% copper-infused cover protects you from breakouts and allergies by repelling bacteria and allergens, promoting clean, healthy sleep.

Conveniently, the Brightr Luna pillow cover can also be machine-washed at 40°C. 

This further enhances its hygienic properties. 🫧

A zip stretches along two sides of the cover, so you can easily zip it open and remove the layers you don't want to sleep on. 

Brightr Luna pillow size

The Luna pillow, like all the other pillows in the Brightr Sleep range, has dimensions of 45 x 65 cm (17.7 x 25.6 inches).

The exact loft of your pillow will depend on which layers you keep. 🤓

These are approximates:

• High loft (3 layers, ideal for side sleepers): 12 - 18 cm  (4.7 - 7 inches)
• Medium loft (two layers, ideal for back sleepers): 7 - 10 cm (2.7 - 3.9 inches)
• Low loft (one layer, ideal for front sleepers) 3 - 5 cm (1.1 - 1.9 inches)

You may need to play around a bit to get the combination of layers that works best for your build and sleeping position.

Luna pillow delivery

The Brightr Luna pillow comes with free delivery within the UK in 2 - 4 working days. 🇬🇧

It is delivered tightly compressed and squeezed in a protective bag in a bright yellow cardboard cylinder. 

Both the bag and the cardboard cylinder can be reused or recycled, but we found it quite handy to keep bits and bobs in.

The Luna pillow also comes with a 30-night sleep trial, giving you the chance to try the pillow in the comfort of your own home and get a full refund if you're not completely satisfied. 

Tell me more about the Brightr Stella Hybrid Pillow

The Brightr Stella Hybrid is a luxurious hybrid pillow that offers the softness and feel of a luxury down pillow combined with the contouring support of memory foam.

Fully customisable, this pillow is designed to adapt to your needs, no matter what your sleeping preferences may be.

Stella's adjustable pillow filling

The Brightr Stella Pillow features an adjustable 3-layer design, making it perfect for side, back, and front sleepers. 🙌

You can customise the pillow's height and softness to find the perfect level of support for your body and sleeping style.

Each layer is filled with a combination of shredded graphene memory foam and soft-as-down airy fibres made from upcycled plastic bottles, which enhance airflow and cooling within the pillow. 💨

This gives the pillow a very distinct down-like feel and, on first touch, it feels very soft and airy. 

But the memory foam still gives it a distinct level of support, which will become apparent as soon as you lay your head down on it.

You'll notice that the loose filling in the different layers is quite mouldable, so you can bunch it up on the side or squish it right where you want it.

We were worried this would result in uneven support or an uncomfortable feel while sleeping, but this wasn't the case. 😅

The cover, which we'll look at below, is quite thick, so you won't notice the unevenness of the individual pieces of foam at all, and we just straightened out the filling in each layer as best as possible before inserting it into the cover.

We slept beautifully during our Brightr Sleep pillow test.

Each layer has a different level of thickness, so you can choose not only how many layers you want in your pillow but also which thickness of layers you want. 🥳

This makes Brightr Sleep pillows quite unique. 

Anti-bacterial pillow cover

The Stella Hybrid's pillow outer cover is made from soft, padded recycled polyester fibres enriched with 40% copper. 

Copper has been clinically proven to repel bacteria, providing protection against breakouts and allergens.

The ensures a 100% hypoallergenic sleep environment. 😴

The cover has a zip that stretches over two sides, so you can easily unfold it and take your pillow layers out.

When putting them back in, though, just ensure that you even out the filling in all corners before zipping the cover up again. 

The cover has a pattern on it, which is likely to shine through if you're using a thin (or white) pillowcase. 🤨

If this is an issue, we'd suggest investing in a pillow protector or using a slightly thicker pillowcase.

Stella pillow size

The Stella Brightr pillow has dimensions of 45 x 65 cm (17.7 x 25.6 inches). 📐

The loft of the pillow differs, depending on how many layers you have in your pillow and also which thickness layers you decide to keep.

Here are the average pillow heights for the Brightr Stella:

• High loft (3 pillow layers with a slightly firmer feel perfect for side sleepers): 12 - 16 cm (4.7 - 6.3 inches)
• Medium loft (2 layers with a medium-soft feel perfect for back sleepers): 7 - 10 cm (2.7 - 3.9 inches)
• Low loft (1 layer with a soft feel perfect for stomach sleepers): 3 - 5 cm (1.1 - 1.9 inches)

The below images will give you an indication of how the lofts can differ:

The suitability of the different lofts is just a generalisation. 👍

One of our testers, for example, is of a smaller build and preferred two thicker layers for the side sleeping position. 

But the unique customisability of the Stella pillow ensures that you can find the loft that works best for both your build and your preferred sleep position. 

Stella Hybrid pillow delivery

The Brightr Stella Hybrid pillow is delivered compressed, tightly rolled up, and packed in both a dust bag and a cardboard cylinder. 

The delivery is 100% plastic-free, and both the bag and cardboard cylinder are reusable and recyclable. 

Delivery is free within the UK and takes place within 2 - 4 working days. 🇬🇧

Brightr Sleep also provides a 30-night comfort guarantee, which gives you the chance to try the pillow and send it back for a full refund if you're not completely satisfied. 

Tell me more about the Brightr Nox Vegan Down Pillow

The Brightr Nox Vegan Down Pillow is a unique 3-in-1 adjustable pillow designed to provide comfort and support for a restful night's sleep. 

It's even recommended by osteopaths, making it an ideal choice for those seeking improved sleep quality.

Nox pillow filling

The Nox pillow's inner core consists of three iQillow layers filled with soft down-alternative Refinex™ fibres made from regenerated plastic bottles, reducing waste and carbon emissions by approximately 30%. 🌍

The filling feels like that in down or feather pillows and is soft and mouldable.

Conveniently, the three layers can be adjusted to customise the height and softness according to your preferences. 

Adjusting the layers is quick and easy - simply unzip the thick outer cover and remove the layers to adjust to your requirements.

Each layer is slightly different in terms of thickness, so you'll have one thin layer, one medium layer, and one thick layer. 

We did find the pillow lacked slightly in support, and we felt most comfortable on all three layers in both the back and side sleeping positions, but this will depend entirely on your build and what mattress you're pairing the pillow with.

When it comes to softness, though, there's no beating the squishy feel of this pillow. 🤗

Copper-infused pillow cover

The Brightr Nox pillow also features a thick and soft anti-bacterial cover enriched with 20% copper, which has been clinically proven to repel viruses, bacteria, and fungi that can cause breakouts and allergies. 🤧

The premium copper fibres have been woven into the cover to ensure they won't wash off, keeping your pillow 100% hypoallergenic. 

The pillow cover is luxuriously thick and soft and feels very pleasant to lie on. 

It does have a bright yellow lining, which will shine through thinner, white pillowcases, so just be aware of that. 🟡

Nox pillow size

The Nox pillow dimensions are 45 x 65 cm (17.7 x 25.6 inches).

The loft of the pillow varies according to how many layers you'll keep.

• High loft (all three layers; best for side sleepers): 12 - 16 cm (4.7 - 6.3 inches)
• Medium loft (two layers; best for back sleepers): 7 - 10 cm (2.7 - 3.9 inches)
• Low loft (one layer; best for front sleepers) 3 - 5 cm (1.1 - 1.9 inches)

Since the three layers all have different thicknesses, your exact loft will depend on which combination of layers you decide to keep. 

How the Nox pillow is delivered

The Brightr Nox pillow - like all Brightr Sleep pillows - is delivered plastic-free. ⭐️

You'll find it compressed and rolled up into a lightweight and dye-free dust bag and stuffed into a sturdy cardboard box.

Both the cardboard box and bag can be reused or recycled.

Delivery is free within the UK, and you should get your pillow within 2 - 4 working days.

Conveniently, Brightr Sleep also offers a 30-night comfort guarantee. 🗓️

If you're not 100% satisfied, you can return the pillow for a full refund.
