Key Features

🐑

100% Organic Merino Wool Fill

Naturally temperature regulating. The pillow stays cool in summer and warm in winter without any synthetic layering.

🌱

Organic Cotton Sateen Cover

270 thread count sateen cover is soft and breathable. No dyes or synthetic treatments, just cotton.

📏

Medium Fill, Adjustable

Ships with a standard fill but the zippered cover lets you remove wool to soften it for stomach sleepers or leave it for side sleepers.

GOTS Certified Materials

Both the wool and cotton are GOTS certified organic, meaning the whole supply chain meets strict standards.

Our Experience

We tested this pillow for five weeks as a replacement for a memory foam pillow that had started to sleep hot. The first night was an adjustment, wool behaves differently than foam. It conforms but rebounds, it doesnt sink and stay sunk. Our neck took about three nights to get used to it.

Heat regulation is the standout. We tested it through a handful of hot nights and a cold snap, and the pillow adapted without us flipping it or cooling the room. Thats the wool doing its job, which is pulling moisture away and letting it evaporate. Side sleepers will get the most out of this, we think. Stomach sleepers might want to remove some fill.

$139 is real money for a pillow, but this is the kind of thing you keep for years rather than replace every 18 months. Wool resists dust mites naturally and doesnt develop odor the way foam does. If you sleep hot and have been bouncing between foam and down, give wool a shot.

Pros & Cons

What We Liked

  • All-season temperature regulation is genuinely noticeable
  • Adjustable fill through the zipper
  • GOTS certified organic cotton and wool
  • Feels supportive without being stiff

Worth Knowing

  • Takes a few nights to adjust from foam or down
  • $139 is premium pricing
  • Wool has a faint natural smell at first, fades in about a week

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I machine wash it?

The outer cover is removable and washable. The wool fill itself should only be spot cleaned and air dried. Dry cleaning is not recommended.

Is it good for hot sleepers?

Yes, wool is one of the best natural fibers for temperature regulation. If you run hot at night, this will do more for you than any “cooling gel” foam.

How firm is it?

Medium firm out of the box. The zipper lets you remove wool to soften it, which most stomach sleepers will want to do.

Final Verdict

The myMerino Pillow is what you buy when youre tired of replacing synthetic pillows every year. Its expensive up front, but the wool fill, organic cover, and adjustable firmness make it a long term investment that pays off in sleep quality. Best for side sleepers who run hot. Worth every dollar if thats you.
