Ikea BERGVEN Pillow

Yes, the BERGVEN is designed with a high-loft profile that provides the necessary elevation for side sleepers to keep the neck and spine aligned. Its firm inner core offers the support needed to prevent the head from sinking too low.

The pillow uses a 'pillow-in-pillow' construction. The outer layer is filled with 90% down for a soft, plush surface feel, while the inner core is packed with 90% feathers to provide structural support and prevent the pillow from flattening out.

Yes, this pillow is machine washable at 140°F, which is hot enough to effectively clean and refresh the filling. Always check your machine's capacity to ensure it can handle the pillow's size and weight comfortably.

Yes, the 100% cotton dobby woven fabric is naturally breathable. It allows for better airflow compared to synthetic covers, which helps keep the pillow surface dry and comfortable throughout the night.

The double piping isn't just aesthetic; it reinforces the edges of the pillow to maintain its high-loft shape. This construction helps the pillow hold its fullness over time and provides better edge support for your neck and shoulders.

While the core is firm to provide support, the outer layer is soft down. It strikes a balance between plush comfort and structural integrity, making it a good middle-ground option rather than an ultra-firm or ultra-soft pillow.
