DreamSleeper(TM) UltraLight aufblasbares Kopfkissen

Very light and comfortable. I use a buff as pillow cover, convenient when you want at washable cover. I wish for the opportunity to attach some kind of strap to the pillow so it's easier to keep in place on the madras ( i use a Quilt)

Fantastic light pillow! I finally found a pillow that's thick enough so I don't crane my neck! And it's super lightweight.

I purchased my first DreamSleeper Ultralight inflatable pillow (bladder only) in 2017 as part of prep for a longer backpacking trip where I was looking to go lighter. Had never used an inflatable pillow before but fewer extra clothes and fewer stuff sacks was going to take away my previous go-to pillow option. I'm a side sleeper with wide shoulders and a tall pillow helps keep my neck from being at an uncomfortable angle. I will often stack two pillows if they are smushy and my preferred pillow at home was two of those pillows filled with little plastic/foam pellets that I stuffed into the same zippered pillow case. In late 2019 I decided that I needed to try the pillows (I also bought a Trekology, heavier) in advance to see if they were going to work for me and which one I preferred.

I paired the DreamSleeper bladder with a fleece neckwarmer/hat to keep from having my face against the plastic. I was worried about that and that the pillow would slip out from under my head in the night. Neither of those things turned out to be a problem for me. I preferred the DreamSleeper and it was actually comfortable to sleep with. I had concerns about durability on an extended trip so I bought some spares and started using the first one every night to see how long it would last. It held up well enough to convince me that it would hold up for 5+ months if I was reasonably careful with it.

Along the way I decided that I preferred it to my regular pellet-filled double-stuffed pillow and continued to use it much to my wife's amusement. At this point it has been my daily driver for more than three years. I add air most nights when I go to bed. Sometimes it needs more and sometimes it doesn't need much at all. If I ever wake up in the night and notice that it could use some air I add some but it is never flat and most nights I don't need to do anything. The valve is noticeably looser than on one of my new ones, easier to add air, and I wonder whether sometimes I might not be getting the valve tightened down securely. I held it under water in the tub at one point and saw no sign of a slow leak. The new one that I inflated last week does not seem to have lost any air but I'm also not sleeping on it.

It would be an understatement to say that I am satisfied with this pillow.

Fantastic pillow. Bit slow to deflate but otherwise good.
