What is the difference between down and down alternative?

We use 100% hypoallergenic European down that is BlueSign® certified and cleaned without any chemicals to harm you or the earth. Our Responsible Down Standard certified, 650 fill-power, pure Hungarian down fill provides a cooler sleeping environment and maximum breathability. Our Down will never have any sticks or quills like you find with feathers, which also makes it hypoallergenic.

Our Down Alternative is a proprietary blend of combed polyester fiber designed to mimic the luxurious density and loft of naturally-sourced down. It is also non-toxic and hypoallergenic.

Are the pillows hypoallergenic?

Yes! Here’s why: The Pillow Bar Down is the most pure European down available. It does not have quills or feathers like other company’s “down.” Feathers contain allergens in the quill, but not to worry our pristine down is feather and allergen-free. Our Down Alternative is made of proprietary blend of combed polyester fiber guaranteed to be hypoallergenic. 

How long will my pillow last?

Depending on your care and use, it’s time for a new pillow after 2-3 years.

What’s included with a pillow?

All pillows from The Pillow Bar come with a pillow insert (down or down alternative), a 100% cotton zippered outer pillow protector (and complimentary embroidery if chosen) and are packaged in our signature lavender canvas bag, perfect for gifting. Down pillows also include an aromatic lavender sachet–fun fact: the scent of lavender is proven to be calming and relaxing.

How and where are the pillows made?

All pillows are made one at a time in Dallas, Texas. Under the advisement of physicians, our team has been trained to craft the perfect pillow using our patented Pillow Bar technology.

What is my sleep style?

Your sleep style is determined by your waking position—either front, back or side–not how you go to sleep. If you’re a combination sleeper or not sure, we’ve got you covered–check out our Sleep Style Guide.

What is a pillow protector vs a pillow case?

A pillow protector is the zippered, removable case that goes on the outside of the pillow insert to keep it fresh. A pillow case slips over your pillow insert and protector and typically matches your sheet set. One side is open ended so the pillow insert can slide in and out with ease.

How can I tell you more about my sleep style or pillow preferences before ordering?

When placing your pillow order, please add notes in the comments box before adding the products to your cart. Anything that affects your sleep is important to share. Have you had a back problem? Did you break your arm? Tell us! We care about your sleep and want to help improve your rest. 

I’m buying someone a gift. How do I choose the right pillow if I don’t know their sleep style?

If you're unsure about this we can always mail the recipient a boxed gift card or email an e-gift card directly to their inbox. If you prefer a physical gift, we recommend that you select a medium filled pillow. Choose the size pillow you would like to gift and then select "Classic Comfort" from the sleep style options before adding the product to your cart.

How is the sizing on the Robes and PJs?

Robes are unisex sizing. The Turkish Towel Bathrobe fits up to Women’s 16 and Men’s XL. The Daydreamer Down Robe is available in Unisex S/M and Unisex L/XL. We like our PJs to be generous and extra comfy for lounging: Small (0-4), Medium (6-10), Large (12-14). 

How do I care for my items? 

Check out our Care Instructions or visit the product page for specific instructions regarding your item. 

Embroidery

Is embroidery complimentary?

Yes, that's our gift to you! Visit our Embroidery Guide for inspiration.

Why do you embroider the pillow protector?

The pillow is custom made for Y-O-U. Personalize your pillow protector with your name, initials or favorite dream-inspiring phrase to ensure you are sleeping on the correct pillow each night. 

What if my embroidery doesn’t fit? Can I add more letters?

The personalization preview on our website allows the maximum number of letters (including spaces) we can accommodate on each product. If your text is longer than the allotted characters, we unfortunately cannot embroider it.

How should I monogram a gift?

You can go with the traditional route and choose a name or go more modern with a fun saying or three letter monogram! Check out our embroidery guide for some great ideas.

I want to add a personal or company logo to the products. Is that possible?

Yes! Please email info@thepillowbar.com with your image (.PES file) and our expert team will do our best to accommodate your request.
