Buying protectors for our mattress is a vital part of maintaining our sleeping arrangements and keeping it clean, but what about our pillows? The pillow that we lay our heads on every night is regularly forgotten about! Yes, we usually switch out the pillow covers when we change our bed sheets, but what about protecting them from stains, spillages and overall damage? In this article, our team of Sleep Experts have ranked their top 3 choices of pillow protectors.

What is a Pillow Protector?

Before you go buying pillow protectors, it's vital that you know exactly what one is! A pillow protector is a piece of fabric that covers your pillows which you sleep on every night. A protector provides an extra layer or barrier against normal wear and tear, as well as any moisture or stains. We all know the feeling of an older, overused pillow. They become soft, no longer hold their shape and just aren’t as firm as they once were. In order to enjoy your pillows for many more years, our Sleep Experts would recommend investing in some good quality pillow protectors. 

Which is The Best Pillow Protector?

When you are shopping around before purchasing a pillow protector, it’s vital that you have all the information you need to make a good decision. Our Sleep Experts have broken down their top three pillow protectors currently available. 

1. Spundown Pillow Protector

One of the main reasons to add a pillow protector to your duvet set is for practicality. Adding a protective layer to your pillow, in a similar way that you would add a protective layer to your mattress, is ideal when it comes to hygiene.

In addition, this pillow protector is soft to the touch and offers a gentle space for you to fall asleep on.
