Is the Mainstays Mega Bed Pillow good for side sleepers?

It is labeled for back sleepers with a firm feel. Side sleepers usually need a taller, softer pillow to fill the gap at the shoulder, so this one may feel too flat or too hard.

Can the whole pillow go in the washing machine?

Yes. It is machine washable, so you can clean the pillow itself rather than only the case. Follow the care label and dry it fully before use.

It is a standard/queen size pillow. That fits most standard and queen pillowcases and standard queen bed setups.

Is it hypoallergenic?

Yes. The polyester cover and poly fill are described as hypoallergenic, which helps if dust and common allergens bother you.

How does it compare with a memory foam pillow?

Poly fill feels springier and lighter than memory foam and is machine washable. Memory foam holds shape better and can offer more contouring, but it is heavier and usually not washable.

How many pillows come in the pack?

The pack contains two pillows, enough for one bed or a pair of guest pillows.

Our take on the Mainstays Mega Bed Pillow

The Mainstays Mega Bed Pillow is a two-pack of standard/queen pillows with a firm feel, aimed at back sleepers. It uses a poly fiber fill inside a 100% polyester cover, and both pillow and cover are hypoallergenic and machine washable. It is a basic, budget-minded everyday pillow rather than a cooling or adjustable one. Firm poly-fill pillows like this hold their loft longer than soft down-alternatives but feel flatter and warmer than shredded or gel-filled rivals.
