Product and Care

What makes Snuggellow different to other pillows?

The Snuggellow is the only pillow in the World that features a revolutionary Shoulder Nook and is completely customisable. These unique features ensure personalised neck alignment and longevity of the pillow by having its main components refillable, which reduces waste and is more cost effective.

What is the Snuggellow made of?

The Snuggellow is made from premium memory foam, dacron Polyfil and bamboo fabrics.

We use a combination of overseas and Australian manufacturing to ensure the highest of quality fabrics and inserts.

Can I wash the Snuggellow?

The Snuggellow itself cannot be washed. We recommend purchasing a Snuggellow protector to ensure that your Snuggellow is kept clean. The protectors can be machine washed.

How do I adjust my Snuggellow?

We understand that adjusting your Snuggellow may seem like a overwhelming task which is why we provide the ability for you to book a meeting with us via our 'Perfect your Snuggellow' sessions. These sessions are done via video call from our Snuggellow Adjustment Consultants who will guide you step by step on how to adjust your Snuggellow and get it perfect! We do recommend checking out our 'Instructions' page first.

My Snuggellow doesn't feel as 'full' compared to when I first received it, what does this mean?

Just like any pillow, the Snuggellow can soften over time. The great thing about the Snuggellow is that when this happens, instead of having to replace your entire pillow, we offer bags of filling to refill your Snuggellow to your perfect comfort level! We have received feedback that some reduction in height can occur at around 12 months after your purchase.

My Snuggellow feels too hard and/or high, what should I do?

If your Snuggellow is feeling too hard and/or high, you will need to remove some of the filling. Simply unzip the back of your Snuggellow and remove some of the loose polyfill. Once you have removed a portin, ask someone to check that your head is laying flat and is in alignment with your back. If you still aren't sure book a 'Perfect your Snuggellow' consultation with one of our Snuggellow Adjustment Consultants and we can assist you in getting your Snuggellow perfect!

My Snuggellow feels too low and/or soft, what should I do?

If your Snuggellow is feeling too low and/or soft, you will need to insert some extra filling. Simply unzip the back of your Snuggellow and insert some of the loose polyfill. Once you have finished, ask someone to check that your head is laying flat and is in alignment with your back. If you still aren't sure, book a 'Perfect your Snuggellow' consultation with one of our Snuggellow Adjustment Consultants and we can assist you in getting your Snuggellow perfect!

Do you sell any additional inserts to make the Snuggellow even more personalised?

YES WE DO! We supply Australian made Faux Feather and high grade memory foam inserts to upgrade your comfort level, giving our Snuggellers a luxurious level of comfort. Check these out in our 'Shop' tab.

Is the Snuggellow safe to use in pregnancy?

The Snuggellow is safe to use in pregnancy, in fact it is amazing to use whilst pregnant. The long legs provide support for your back and growing belly, which also keeps you on your side. What's even better is that the Snuggellow can be used beyond your pregnancy as a breast feeding pillow and as your regular pillow. No more wasting money on pregnancy pillows that can only be used for the duration of your pregnancy!

The Snuggellow is a side sleeping pillow, but can I sleep on my back in it?

We have designed the Snuggellow to really nurture and encourage the side sleeping position. Sleeping on your side is known as being the healthiest sleeping position. Our goal is to train our Snuggellers to be a side sleeper but you can still sleep comfortably on your back if that is your preference.

How does the 'Shoulder nook' help reduce shoulder crush?

The shoulder nook is a space on the under- side of the Snuggellow that has been intentionally designed to allow your shoulder to weightlessly slip in to your Snuggellow. Allowing your shoulder to have this space to rest comfortably, prevents your shoulder and neck from tensing up during sleep from having too much pressure and/or weight on it.

What are the 'New and Improved' changes?

We are always looking for ways to better improve our quality and standards. We took on some feedback from our customers and made some incredible changes!

- Improved filling: Our Snuggellow's are now made from Premium Memory Foam and Dacron Polyfill.

- Launched our Protective Case: We have launched a protective case which is machine washable and provides another layer of comfort and protection.

- Cases Redesigned: Our Snuggellow cases have been redesigned to be a perfectly snug fit on the Snuggellow and are stitched to absolute perfection, to avoid unnecessary tearing.

- New Materials: We now use Bamboo, Tencel and Silk materials for our cases.

- Free Shipping: We dislike shipping fees just as much as you, so we have decided to get rid of our shipping costs!

- 30 Night Guarantee: We now offer a 30 night guarantee for a risk free purchase.

There was nothing on the market that even came close. She set out on a mission to design the best side sleeping pillow on the market that wasn't only super comfortable but featured a revolutionary shoulder nook to reduce shoulder crush, provide back and abdominal support to reduce tossing and turning and be completely customisable to ensure that there was a combination to suit everyones personal sleeping preferences, and my gosh did she nail it!!!
