How the Helix Dream Pillow is Made

The search for the best pillow is easier when you know how a pillow is made. In the following sections, we’ll look at the design and materials that go into the Helix Dream Pillow. Our team has researched the Dream Pillow Set, including loft, fill materials, and other details.

Microfiber Fill

The Helix Dream Pillow is designed as an alternative to down—the ultra-soft, inner plumage found on ducks and geese. The pillow’s polyester microfiber fill offers a plush down alternative. The hypoallergenic fill is designed to give the pillow a softness similar to genuine down.

Breathable Microfiber Cover

The soft comfort continues with the pillow’s exterior cover. It’s made of lightweight polyester microfiber that feels soft next to the skin. The breathable material helps keep the pillow cool by promoting air circulation.

Your Choice of Pillow Size

To help you sleep comfortably, a pillow should fit the size of your bed and provide adequate sleep surface without crowding or hanging over the edge of the mattress. The Dream Pillow is compatible with any Helix mattress, as per the company’s US website. Available in standard and king sizes, the pillows have the following dimensions:

• Standard: 20″ x 30″
• King: 20” x 36″

The king size Dream Pillow typically works best with king and California king size beds. The Standard size is popular with beds ranging from twin to queen.

Medium Loft

The Helix Dream Pillow has a medium loft. Unfortunately, there are no exact measurements for loft on Helix’s US website, although we know from research that medium loft typically is about 3-5 inches. That means that the microfiber fill has a height that is likely compatible with most sleep positions and body types.

Plush Feel

Thanks to the buoyant microfiber fill, the pillow has a plush feel. The down alternative offers a luxurious softness that one would expect from a down pillow. The plush feel combines with the medium loft to elevate the head and neck while relieving pressure. That may help the body relax for better sleep quality for some people.

Machine Washable

Keeping the Dream Pillow Set clean is as easy as tossing it in the washing machine. Helix recommends machine washing in cold water with a mild detergent on its website. That makes it easier to clean as part of a hygienic sleep environment.

Helix Dream Pillow Set: Pros and Any Limitations

It’s important to know how the pillow is made, but it’s also good to know what to likely expect as a sleeper. Read on to learn our opinion of the Dream Pillow’s pros and any limitations.

Hypoallergenic Down Alternative

Thanks to the microfiber fill, the Helix Dream Pillow Set is a hypoallergenic alternative to down pillows. If you wish you could enjoy the soft, plush feel of down pillows, you may be impressed with the luxurious, down-like Dream Pillow. You can sink into and enjoy the ultra-plush pillow as if it were down.

Breathable Cover

Besides plush comfort, the Dream Pillow has a breathable, lightweight cover that helps keep some sleepers cool and comfortable. The microfiber fabric allows air to circulate and carry away body heat. As you drift to sleep on the pillow, about the highly breathable design reduces the chances of waking up in a sweat.

Suitable for Most Sleep Styles and Body Types

The Helix Dream Pillow’s medium loft and soft feel make it a great choice for most sleep positions and body types. For side sleepers, the plush height offers the pressure relief many sleepers look for to keep the neck and head properly aligned. Back and combination sleepers may benefit from the pressure relief and pillow height too. If you sleep on your stomach, you may find that the soft pillow allows your neck and head to sink to the proper level.

Durable Materials

The Helix Dream Pillow is made durable with microfiber fill, which may help it last longer. Plus, while the exterior cover is soft and lightweight, it’s made of strong polyester microfiber.

Easy to Clean

Consider that cleaning a pillow once or twice a year helps keep it free of sweat and dust mites. We think you’ll find it easier to keep the Helix Dream Pillow fresh and clean. There’s no hassle with dry cleaning because the pillow is machine washable in cold water with mild detergent, as per Helix’s website. It can also be spot-cleaned. Tumble dry at a low setting and you’re all set.

Risk-Free Sleep Trial

Do you need time to think about your purchase decision? You can literally sleep on it when you take advantage of the 30-night sleep trial that comes with every Helix Dream Pillow Set. Try the pillow in your own bed within that period and, in the unlikely event you decide it’s not right for you, contact the company for a full refund (meeting the related policy details).

Warranty

When you’re searching for a leading pillow brand, it helps to know that a company is willing to stand by the quality of their product. Helix backs their Dream Pillow Set with a 1-year limited warranty and will replace a pillow that is defective according to the warranty. According to its terms, the warranty covers all defects caused by faulty workmanship or materials that meet the policy guidelines.

Product warranty terms can change without notice. Therefore, we recommend reading the latest warranty terms before purchasing an item.

Final Thoughts on the Helix Dream Pillow Set

After our research, we believe that the Helix Dream Pillow Set offers a quality alternative to down pillows. Its medium loft and microfiber fill offers the plush feel one would expect from genuine down. It’s suitable for most sleep positions and body types. Plus, it’s available in standard and king sizes, so it works with all Helix mattresses.  

The Dream Pillow’s microfiber fill offers a soft but durable sleep surface. It’s made to bounce back after hours of use, providing pressure relief and maintaining alignment for the head and neck. The medium loft and soft feel are suitable for most sleep styles, especially side, back, and combination. Of course, the best pillow depends on your personal preference. We believe, however, that the Dream Pillow can help keep the head and neck at a comfortable angle in most sleep positions. 

If you sleep hot, you may appreciate how the Dream Pillow regulates temperature. We like how the lightweight, breathable cover lets airflow draw away body heat. The pillow is less likely to trap heat, even as it cradles and conforms to your head and neck.

Comfort and ease of care make a great combination, and that’s what you get with this pillow set. Each pillow is machine washable and dryer-friendly, so keeping dust mites at bay is easier. Besides its plush, down-like feel, the pillows are much easier to clean than most genuine down pillows. 

If you’d love to try the Helix Dream Pillow Set but aren’t completely sure, the company offers several helpful features. First, the set comes with a 30-night sleep trial that lets you try the pillows in “real life” at home for about a month, risk-free. Plus, there’s a 1-year limited warranty. We also like the fact that you can apply for financing through Affirm or Katapult.  

Based on our team’s research, we believe that the Helix Dream Pillow Set is high quality, and we recommend it for many people searching for a comfortable, durable, down alternative pillow.
