The nube® neck support pillow is an orthopaedic innovation that guarantees optimum support for the head and neck. Measuring 60 x 40 cm, it fits most standard pillowcases perfectly and offers sufficient space for a comfortable sleeping position.
The ergonomic shape of the pillow supports the natural curvature of the cervical spine. In this respect, a reduction in tension and pain in the neck and shoulder area can be observed.
The nube® neck support pillow is made of viscoelastic memory foam, which ensures perfect adaptation to the contours of the head and neck. The viscoelastic foam not only offers outstanding comfort, but also even pressure distribution. This promotes blood circulation and prevents the formation of pressure points.
The cover of the pillow is made of breathable materials that wick away moisture and promote a pleasant sleeping environment. Furthermore, the cover of the pillow is removable and washable, which makes it easier to care for.
The nube® neck support pillow is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a solution to neck and shoulder pain or who wants to improve their sleeping comfort. Thanks to its ergonomic shape and the use of high-quality materials, it offers optimum support and contributes to a restful night’s sleep.

The packaging is made from recyclable materials, which is viewed favourably by environmentally conscious buyers. The packaging not only impresses with its functionality, but also with its aesthetic design.

The nube® neck support pillow in the size 60 x 40 cm is advertised as an“orthopaedic pillow“, emphasising the benefits of optimum neck support and relief from tension. On closer inspection, it can be seen that the pillow lives up to expectations in several respects.
The pillow also impresses with its high level of comfort and noticeable relief of the neck area. The viscoelastic foam adapts favourably to the contours of the head and neck, promoting an ergonomic sleeping position.
Another positive aspect is the bamboo fibre cover, which is described as pleasantly soft and breathable. This results in a pleasant sleeping climate and supports the pillow’s hygienic properties, as the cover is washable.
Overall, it can be said that the nube® neck support pillow fulfils the promises made in the advertising in a number of respects. It provides adequate support and helps to relieve neck tension. However, more detailed care instructions could optimise the product even further.

Price/performance ratio

At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation.
Prices of up to € 156.06 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €24.95 . The memory foam pillow from nube® is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €39.90. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
