Our Editor’s Pick is the Hullo buckwheat pillow from Hulltex LLC. This pillow is a standout for several reasons. For one, it sleeps exceptionally cool even by buckwheat pillow standards. In addition to good air circulation within the interior, the pillow comes with a cover made from breathable organic-cotton twill. The cover is machine washable, as well, and the hulls never need to be cleaned.
Pressure relief is another key strength of the Hullo. It conforms very closely and alleviates aches and pains quite effectively. The pillow’s loft is completely adjustable. Hulltex LLC sells buckwheat hulls in bulk; a 10-lb. bag is $49 and a 20-lb. bag is $89.
The Hullo is offered in a Standard size for $99 and a King size for $149, making the pillow a good pick for shoppers with bigger budgets. Hulltex LLC offers free shipping anywhere in the contiguous U.S., as well as a 60-night sleep trial for the pillow.
Good for:
- Side and back sleepers
- Sleepers in the average and heavy weight groups
- Neck and shoulder pain sufferers
- Those who tend to sleep hot
