Good pillow, but too high for my neck
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
I love the Talalay latex for the quality, and that there is no smell. However, it is too high for my neck. I wish the company would make it in a 3" version, instead of just 5.5". They do have a "slim" version, but it is not even the same kind of pillow. It measures 2.5" and the back side is completely flat, so you can not turn it in over for use. The company basically took this 5.5" version and cut it in half for the slim.

The Ultimate Natural Latex Pillow
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
I recently switched to the Talatex 100% Natural Premium Latex Pillow and it has transformed my sleep. Unlike synthetic memory foam, this Purefusion Talalay Latex is incredibly supportive yet soft, providing excellent pressure relief for both my neck and shoulders. I appreciate knowing there are no harsh chemicals in the core.  It retains its shape perfectly night after night and stays cool thanks to the breathable material. The quality is immediately apparent, especially with the removable Tencel cover, which is luxuriously smooth. It arrived in a beautiful package, truly making it the best gift for anyone seeking a healthier, more comfortable night's sleep. Highly recommended!

The Natural Way to Better Sleep.
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5"), Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
After trying out several latex over the years, the Talatex Talalay 100 stands out for its luxurious comfort, quality materials, and overall sleep experience. Made from 100% natural Talalay latex, it offers a perfect balance of softness and support. Comfort & Support: The Talalay latex feels incredibly buoyant yet plush. I found it especially beneficial for relieving neck pain. Temperature Regulation: One of the best aspects is its breathability. Latex naturally sleeps cooler than other foams. Eco-Friendliness: Another big plus is that it’s made from natural latex with no synthetic additives, making it a healthier and more environmentally friendly choice. It’s also hypoallergenic, which is great for allergy sufferers. Verdict: If you're looking for a premium latex sleep surface that delivers both comfort and longevity, the Talatex Talalay 100 is a solid investment. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but the quality and sleep experience justify the price.

Finally sleeping well again
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5"), Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
Got the standard soft and the height is just right - perfect mix of plush and supportive. My neck pain is basically gone. Love that it stays cool through the night thanks to the little vent holes, and the Tencel cover feels super soft. Holds its shape really well too, no flattening. Packaging felt like a gift. Worth every penny.

Sleeping like a dream!
Size: Queen
We stayed at a Westin hotel recently and usually I don't sleep well when traveling but this overnight stay was heaven! I don't know what magic is in these pillows but they are a dream! I sleep in my side and these are perfect, I sleep the entire night with no back or neck issues. I've tried some expensive pillows from Sealy, Serta, etc, and nothing compared to the Westins! So glad these are available through the Westin Amazon store! And less expensive than anything else I've tried.
