Brooklinen Down Pillow vs Utopia Bedding Bed Pillows

Buy the Brooklinen Down Pillow if you want a natural down pillow with real loft, a breathable cotton cambric shell and a medium feel that suits most back and side sleepers. Buy the Utopia Bedding pillows if you want a soft, low-cost polyester pillow you can replace often, or need a gusseted shape for a guest room. Brooklinen's build and materials are clearly a step up; Utopia's main trade-offs are a thin, flat profile and hand-wash-only care.

• Choose the Brooklinen Down Pillow if you want a medium-firmness down pillow with 600+ fill power European white goose down and a washable cotton shell.
• Choose the Utopia Bedding pillow if you want a soft, gusseted polyester pillow for side, back or stomach sleeping and don't mind hand washing.
