Bought 2 Cabeau Travel pillows for our up coming long haul flight. Quality and support of pillow is exactly as product description. Love how it easily folds into its own travel bag. Ease of ordering with a fast delivery .

Delivery was prompt but had to spend so long and several attempts to find where .to order on line. If I have to do this every 6 months I would like to think it could be as simple as other online shopping experiences.

My partner went away and forgot his pillow, he bought this on the fly. Brought it home and i was obsessed. Hunted it down online and was so happy to find it here. It's the right amount of squishy, but softer than the usual memory foam. Bambi Renew Charcoal Infused Memory Foam Pillow

Queen size, electric blanket- Dreamaker 100% Cotton Quilted Electric Blanket Recently purchased- speedy delivery This is a very comfortable electric blanket- deep stretchy skirting and a generously plumped cotton quilt cover. The electrical connection is placed at the top of the blanket, and is therefore on top of the pillow area - no more bumps on the side. Blanket controls are well designed and easy to use. Very happy with my purchase.
Geeat products , good quality and fair prices. And fast postage. Highly recommended

Australian Guide to Choosing the Right Travel Pillow
The right pillow is the difference between arriving refreshed and arriving exhausted - on a long-haul flight or a weekend road trip.
A good one stops your head bobbing forward every time you drift off, so you can actually sleep sitting up. A compact pillow can also replace the lumpy hotel pillow waiting at your destination. Below, we cover the main types, how to wear them properly, and which suits the way you travel.
How Neck Pillows Work - Positioning Matters
Most people wear a U-shaped pillow the wrong way round. There are three positions, each solving a different problem - tap a diagram to see how each one works.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/neck-pillow-standard-position.jpg)
Standard: Side Support
Opening at front. Raised side walls prevent head from falling sideways.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/neck-pillow-rotated-position.jpg)
Rotated: Chin Support
Opening at back. Thick section under chin prevents head bobbing forward.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/neck-pillow-standard-position-with-straps.jpg)
Strapped: Zero Slip
Seat strap wraps around headrest posts, locking pillow in place during sleep.
The Rotation Trick:
Turn a U-shaped pillow 180° so the thick part sits under your chin instead of behind your neck. It stops your head dropping forward - the usual cause of those repeated head-bob wake-ups on long flights. Works best on firm memory foam pillows with raised sides, like the Cabeau Evolution S3.
Seat Strap Attachment:
Some pillows have a strap that loops around the headrest, holding the pillow against the seat so it can't slide off while you sleep. The Cabeau S3 range includes one. No exposed headrest posts? The strap usually wraps around the whole seat back instead.

Frequent Flyers
Premium memory foam neck pillow with a washable cover, plus a compact pillow for hotels. Fly often and quality pays off - the cost per use drops fast, and you arrive less jet-lagged.
Hotel Pillow Replacement:
A compact memory foam or contoured travel pillow - does double duty: neck support in transit, then a familiar pillow to use instead of (or on top of) whatever the hotel provides. A real help if a neck condition means you need the same support every night.
Types of Travel Pillows
There are five main types, each suited to a different kind of trip. Here's a quick comparison before the detail below.
| Type | Fill / Material | Pack Size | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Memory Foam Neck Pillow | Solid or shredded memory foam | Compresses to ~50% - clips to bag | Long-haul flights, firm neck support, premium comfort |
| Inflatable Neck Pillow | Air (TPU or PVC bladder) | Folds flat - pocket-sized | Backpackers, ultralight travel, adjustable firmness |
| Portable Pillows | Inflatable lateral support | Folds flat - pocket-sized | Lateral head support, window seats, chronic neck pain |
| Compact Sleeping Pillow | Memory foam or microfibre fill | Rolls into travel bag | Hotel pillow replacement, camping, multi-night trips |
| Lumbar / Back Support | Inflatable (air bladder) | Folds flat - pocket-sized | Lower back support on flights, car travel, office chairs |
Types Explained in Detail
Each type has a clear strength. Here's where each one shines.
Memory Foam Neck Pillows
The go-to for long-haul flights - the foam moulds to your neck and holds firm for hours, while raised sides stop your head tipping over. Most squash into a travel bag or clip to your backpack.
Inflatable Neck Pillows
The lightest, most packable choice - a few breaths to inflate, seconds to fold flat. It won't hug your neck like foam, but the weight saving is hard to beat for backpacking.
Compact Portable Pillows
Packable pillows beyond a neck pillow - long curved cushions like the Travelrest Ultimate for lateral support, or small roll-up bed pillows. Ideal when a neck pillow won't do or hotel pillows never feel right.
Lumbar & Back Support Pillows:
Different job, just as useful. An inflatable back pillow from Korjo or Edge sits behind your lower back and keeps its natural curve on long flights and drives - so you don't slump and arrive stiff and sore. It deflates to pocket size, making it easy to pack alongside a neck pillow for full upper-body support.
Carrying & Packing Tips
A few small habits keep your pillow handy instead of left at home.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/clip-icon.jpg){kind=icon}
Clip to luggage, don't pack inside it
Most foam pillows have a snap or carabiner loop. Clip the squashed pillow to the outside of your bag - it frees up space inside and stays within reach at the gate.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/decompress-icon.jpg){kind=icon}
Decompress before use
Foam needs a few minutes to spring back after being packed down. Pull it out at the gate or during boarding and it'll be full and ready by the time you're in the air.
:quality(90)/https://www.sleepsolutions.com.au/media//wysiwyg/Guides/TravelPillowsGuide/security-friendly-icon.jpg){kind=icon}
Inflatable = security friendly
Deflated, an inflatable is just a flat pouch, so it sails through security. You can even top it up using the overhead air nozzle on most planes.

Sleeping pillows in checked luggage
Using it mainly at the hotel rather than on the plane? Pack it in your checked bag to keep carry-on free - most roll down to about the size of a water bottle.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right travel pillow for me?
Consider your travel style and personal comfort preferences. If you tend to sleep upright, a neck pillow might be ideal. For side sleepers, a more traditional or contoured pillow could provide better support. Material is another factor – memory foam offers firm support and molds to your shape, while inflatable pillows are adjustable and save space. Lastly, think about portability and how easy it is to carry the pillow with your luggage.
Can I use a travel pillow for purposes other than traveling?
Absolutely! While designed for travel, these pillows are versatile enough for use at home or in the office too. Whether you're lounging on the couch, reading in bed, or need extra support while working at your desk, a travel pillow can provide the comfort and support your neck and head need.
How do I clean and maintain my travel pillow?
Most travel pillows come with a removable and washable cover, making it easy to keep them clean. For the pillow itself, it’s important to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Many can be spot cleaned with a mild detergent, while others may allow for machine wash. Regular cleaning helps maintain hygiene and extends the life of your pillow.
What is the best travel pillow for long flights?
Memory foam neck pillows like the Cabeau Evolution S3 and Travelrest Nest are top-rated for long-haul flights. They provide firm neck support that prevents your head from falling forward, and compress small enough for carry-on luggage.
Are inflatable or memory foam travel pillows better?
Inflatable pillows are lighter and more packable, ideal for backpackers. Memory foam pillows offer superior neck support and comfort for long flights. If space is your priority, go inflatable. If comfort is, go memory foam.
