What Are V Shaped Pillows?

As the name suggests, V shaped pillows are designed in a wide ‘V’ shape that offers more support than a standard rectangular pillow. Their clever shape means they can sit comfortably around the body, which is why they’re often used for both sleeping at night and relaxing during the day.

How are V shaped pillows used?

One of the biggest advantages of a V shaped pillow is its versatility. For anyone that finds regular pillows don’t quite offer enough support, the V shape is a great alternative.

When sitting upright, the pillow can be placed behind the back, with the sides gently wrapping around the arms. This will make sitting for longer periods feel more comfortable. In bed, the pillow is often used to prop up the upper body, which many people find helpful for reading, watching television or simply relaxing before sleep.

It’s also a great help in supporting the neck and shoulders when lying down. For those who struggle with aches and pains in this area, a V shaped pillow creates a more secure, settled and natural sleeping position. 

Why do people choose V shaped pillows?

V shaped pillows are popular because they can be used for different things throughout the day, rather than being designed for just one purpose.

They’re often recommended for pregnancy support, thanks to their ability to support different parts of the body at once. And they can also be used to help support a young baby during supervised time, such as when sitting or feeding.

Above all, they’re very flexible in use and are just as helpful for anyone looking for a more supportive pillow that works in multiple positions.

What are they made from?

Most V shaped pillows are filled with soft materials like hollowfibre. This helps the pillow keep its shape so it’s comfortable to use. Many also come with a removable cover for simple, everyday care. 

Due to their unique design, V shaped pillowcase covers are made to fit properly and snugly. If a cover fits well, it not only protects the pillow but also blends nicely with the rest of the bedding.

Simple, supportive comfort

V shaped pillows are all about easy comfort and versatility. Their unique shape provides support in the right places without feeling awkward or oversized. They’re simple to use at any time of day, whether you’re relaxing in the afternoon or heading to bed for a good night’s sleep
