Sloom’s Height Adjustable Pillow Made Us Love Sleep Again
For those who can never find the perfect pillow
A good night’s sleep often comes down to the small things. The right mattress matters, yes, but a pillow can make just as much difference to how you feel when you wake up. So when Sloom sent us their Standard Height Adjustable Pillow to try, we were curious to see if it could actually improve the way we sleep. Spoiler alert: it does!

A Pillow You Can Customise
The standout feature of the Sloom Standard Height Adjustable Pillow is right there in the name. Inside the pillow is removable foam chips that allow you to adjust the height and firmness to suit your sleeping style.
If you prefer a fuller pillow, keep the extra foam chips inside. If you sleep lower or prefer less loft, simply remove some. It takes a few seconds and means you can tweak the pillow until it feels right for you.
For side sleepers, the higher configuration provides solid neck support. Back sleepers may find removing extra foam chips creates a more comfortable alignment. It is a simple concept, but it makes a noticeable difference.

Comfort That Holds Its Shape
The pillow uses high-density memory foam chips which gently mould to the shape of your head and neck. What we noticed on the first night is the balance between softness and support. Your head sinks in slightly, but the pillow still feels structured enough to hold its shape through the night.
Unlike many traditional pillows that flatten after a few weeks, this one keeps its form. That consistent support can help reduce neck strain and make turning during the night feel easier.
Breathable and Practical
The pillow comes with a breathable outer cover that feels cool and soft to the touch. In warmer climates, airflow can make a big difference, and the fabric helps prevent that overheated feeling some memory foam pillows can have.
The cover is also removable and machine washable, which makes it practical for everyday use.
The Verdict
At Hello Lifestyle, we love products that make everyday routines easier and more comfortable. The Sloom Standard Height Adjustable Pillow from Sloom stands out because it adapts to you. The removable foam chips lets you adjust the height in seconds, making it easy to find the support that works for your sleep style. Comfortable, supportive and practical, it is a simple upgrade that can make a real difference to your quality of sleep.
And what’s more – it is only R700 for a Standard size (40 x 60cm) or R950 for a King size (50 x 90cm). A small price to pay for falling in love with sleep again!
Beyond the Pillow: Exploring Sloom’s Sleep Range
While the Sloom Standard Height Adjustable Pillow is a simple way to upgrade your sleep setup, Sloom is best known for its mattresses. The brand sells a range of hybrid mattresses designed to support different sleep styles, combining foam layers with pocket springs for comfort and support.
One of the biggest draws is their 100-night trial. This means you can sleep on a Sloom mattress at home for over three months to see if it works for you. If it is not the right fit, the company arranges a return or exchange. It is a refreshing approach that removes much of the guesswork from buying a mattress online.
Alongside mattresses, Sloom also offers sleep essentials such as pedestals, bed frames, mattress toppers and bedding. If you are looking to improve your overall sleep environment, it is worth exploring the brand’s full range.
