Katie Golde: Hey guys, it's Katie from Mattress Clarity.
I've got a full body pillow review for you today.
This is a Coop Home Goods body pillow.
There's a lot going on here.
We're going to talk about the construction of the materials, we'll go over the pros and
cons and last but not least, we'll definitely talk about the best sleeping positions for
this pillow.
If you're ready, hold on tight, it's about to get cozy with this review.

OK, first things first, if you want to see a list of my favorite body pillows.
Just google, "Mattress Clarity best body pillows" and it'll be the first that pops up.
I'm always looking for new pillows to review.
If you've got one you want me to check out, don't hesitate to comment below.
Give me the name of it and I'll add it to my list.
Now, back to this.
This is a Coop Home Goods body pillow.
If you're not familiar with Coop Home Goods, they're a bedding accessory brand, but they're
known for making really awesome pillows.
We've reviewed their Coop Home Goods original pillow and their Eden.
There's little features in both of those that are in this body pillow as well.
Let's start with the outer cover.
This is a mix of polyester and bamboo-derived rayon.
It's called Lulltra fabric.
With Lul and Ultra combined into a word called Lulltra is hard to pronounce.
Anyway, just know it's a mix of those two materials.
It's soft knit and super breathable.
You may recognize it from the Coop Home Goods original pillow cover as well.
The inside is a mix of cross-cut memory foam, gel memory foam.
Just think uniform-sized pieces and it's 80 percent of that and 20 percent of polyester
fibers.
There's a zipper here that allows you to access the filling and add or remove as much as you
want.
I'm going to let you know exactly what it looks like by unzipping it and pulling some
out for you.
If you can see, all those little pieces are about the same size and they're being held
together by this polyester fiber.
This is nice because one it helps you remove as much as you want without a ton of pieces
falling out.
It's going to add some smoothness and smooth out those lumps that can happen when you've
got chunks of foam in your pillow, but the foam is really helping you with added support.
Again, it's adjustable.
You can add or remove as much as you want based on your sleep position and your desired
height.
The other dimensions are that the pillow is 54 inches in length and 20 inches wide.
Keep that in mind, it does take up a good amount of space on your bed.
It's hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant and made in the USA.
You get a 100 nights to try it out and a five-year limited warranty.
To care for it, it's not going to fit in your standard washer and dryer so Coop Home Goods
does recommend you put a pillow protector on it, but if worst comes to worst, you can
spot clean it.
At full price, it comes in at around 69 dollars.
Here are the pros of the pillow based on my experience.
First of all, it comes with a lot of full-body support.
You're getting a ton of memory foam pieces, which is causing a little bit more of that
firmness and a lot of that support.
Because they're small pieces, you can manipulate the pillow to conform to whatever is a good
fit for you depending on your sleep position.
I love that little bit of polyester fiber in there because it's holding everything together
and smoothing it out so it still has this soft fluffy feel to it.
I like that it's hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant because those of you with sensitivities
know, can be tricky when you don't have that characteristic in your pillow.
I love that it comes with a 100-night trial.
It gives you the opportunity to test it out for yourself.
Add or remove as much of that filling as you want and decide if it's a good fit for you.
Here's some potential consideration to think about before purchasing this pillow.
First of all, size is definitely a factor here.
54 inches long, 20 inches wide, it's going to take up a decent amount of space in bed.
If you're already sleeping in tight quarters or maybe you've got a partner that you're
sleeping with, keep in mind that this will take up some room.
I also want to talk about the cleaning and adjustable nature situation.
While it's cool that you can open up and remove as much of the filling as you want, I wish
that they had a separate liner where you could remove the cover and still have all of the
fillings in there separately.
As soon as you unzip it, you're accessing the filling and you can't remove the cover
to machine wash it and dry it separately.
You also can't machine wash and dry the entire pillow, so even if you had a machine that
could handle a huge pillow like this, you cannot wash it.
You got to spot clean it only.
Be very careful with that.
At a separate cost, you can add a pillow protector and I probably recommend that here as well.
Another thing is price, it's just under $70 for this pillow.
It does come with a 100-night trial, but frankly, that's not in everyone's budget.
Let's talk about the best sleeping positions for this Coop Home Goods body pillow.
The great news here is because it has an adjustable filling, it will work for all sleep positions.
Starting with your side, you'll probably going to want to leave as much as filling of the
filling in as you possibly can to get that high loft and firmness.
It's a great body pillow to curl up with.
You can put it in front of you and hug it or you can move it behind you so you don't
fall onto your back when you sleep.
For a pregnant woman who tend to sleep primarily on their sides about halfway through their
pregnancy, this could be a nice option for you.
Likewise, back sleepers, I always think this is nice as well, you can flatten it out a
little bit more and lean back on it if you want, you can also put it behind while you're
sitting up to read a book or you want to use it for some other way with great back support.
Last but not least, stomach sleepers, you tend to need the flattest pillow and you can
really take out as much of this as you want.
Either way, you're going to get some nice support on your stomach and to help with your
knees and hips as well.
One thing I also like to do with this pillow is to remove some of the filling, fold it
in half and use it just under my knees to help keep my hips aligned and open.
I had a great time reviewing Coop Home Goods body pillow.
I'm already a fan of the brand.
We always here at Mattress Clarity like to look at pillows, body pillows, sleep accessories
that take a traditional idea and then put their own twist on it.
Coop does a really good job making this body pillow adjustable.
You can open it and take out as much of that foam and fiber filling as you'd like, which
does make it a great fit for all sleep positions.
Check out the link below, I've got a full written review with more photos, more details
and don't hesitate to let me know if you've got any questions.
One thing I do want to mention is that this baby is going to come compressed when you
get it.
Let it air it out, throw it in the dryer.
Coop does a really good job at providing you with a lot of details and instructions.
Make sure you follow them to get the full benefits from this pillow.
Alright, that's it.
Hope I see you again soon.
