Purchase price
What we paid in store when we bought the pillows. Quite often you'll be able to find pillows on sale for a cheaper price.
enter value/s in increments of i between 15 and 239
Filling type
What type of filling the pillow has, whether it's polyester, latex or foam and feather. Sometimes it's a mixture.
Antimicrobial claim
Are there any antimicrobial claims on the pillow itself or its packaging?
Washable
Does the pillow claim to be washable?
Pillow cover
Does the pillow come with a cover?
Comfort score
The comfort score is made from the side sleeping results (70%) and back sleeping results (30%), based on consumer feedback on sleeping styles.
enter value/s in increments of i between 51 and 92
Fatigue score
We compress each of the pillows under 100kg weight for 100 hours to speed up the process of ageing, then we measure the decompression once they're released.
enter value/s in increments of i between 50 and 95
Side sleeping score
This measures the angle of the head and how level it is when lying on the pillow in a side sleeping position.
enter value/s in increments of i between 40 and 95
Back sleeping score
This measures the angle of the head and how level it is when lying on the pillow in a back sleeping position.
enter value/s in increments of i between 50 and 95
Fold score
A simple fold of the pillow to see how well it springs back to normal. Most pillows achieve this well.

Sink score
Using a 5kg weight, how far does the simulated head sink into the pillow? We measure this for a sink score to see whether it keeps someone elevated.

Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find these models on second hand websites, or in second hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
