Blackstone
Baby Frey Blackstone pillow

The baby pillow from Blackstone GmbH has been specially developed to support babies’ sleep and relieve their sensitive heads. In addition to a breathable and skin-friendly surface, it also offers excellent hypoallergenic properties. Thanks to its anatomical shape and the use of memory foam, the pillow adapts perfectly to the shape of the child’s head. However, we noticed a slight chemical odour when unpacking the pillow, which faded after a while. The clear advantages of the product are its ergonomic shape and compatibility for allergy sufferers.

  • Pleasant material
  • Ergonomic design
  • Two covers included
  • Dimensional stability
  • Slightly chemical odour

The first impression

Packaging and contents

Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The packaging of the Blackstone baby pillow leaves a thoroughly positive impression. The box is sturdy and offers the product sufficient protection so that it reaches the consumer undamaged. It is particularly worth emphasising that unnecessary packaging waste has been avoided. A protective plastic film ensures optimum protection of the product components without wasting excessive resources. The contents of the pack are complete, including the pillowcase and the pillow itself. Another plus point is the simple instructions for use on the outer packaging, which are easy to understand and clear.

The first impression of the packaging is therefore very positive: environmentally conscious, safe and practical. This emphasises the quality that Blackstone GmbH also pursues in the packaging of the baby pillow.

The baby pillow impresses with its attractive design and excellent workmanship. The seams are sturdy and neatly finished, which speaks in favour of high stability and durability. Even if no precise details are given about the sustainability of the product, the high-quality materials used indicate solid quality. The cushion is comfortable to hold and gives a high-quality impression at first glance, which does not diminish even after prolonged use.

The high-quality workmanship combined with the sophisticated design ensures that the cushion is not only functional, but also looks good in any setting.

This is what our practical test showed

In the practical test, the baby pillow from Blackstone GmbH was largely able to fulfil its promises. The high-quality materials used are not only pleasant on the skin, but also offer perfect pillow thickness. The initially noticeable slightly chemical odour disappears completely after a while. The pillow’s dimensional stability is particularly impressive: it immediately returns to its original shape after being put under pressure and shows no permanent deformation even after repeated use, which indicates excellent recovery behaviour.

The cover is washable without the materials changing after washing and the product is ideal for allergy sufferers, which underpins its hypoallergenic properties. Overall, the pillow fulfils the manufacturer’s advertising promises and is a useful addition to baby’s sleeping equipment.

Price/performance ratio

and ratings from consumers

Finally, we analyse how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also look at the consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.

*Themaximum score is 100 points

At the time of testing, the product was not yet listed on Amazon. This point is therefore neglected in the evaluation.

Prices of up to €50 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €13 . The baby pillow from Baby Frey is therefore currently in the favourable price segment with a price of €23.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
