The test

General information

To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum achievable score per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weighting.

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?

Please note that the product does not contain any plastic. The product is supplied in a reusable carrier bag and protected with a paper film. Instructions for use are not included and are not necessary due to the self-explanatory nature of the cushion.

The design of the cushion is simple, white and pleasantly unobtrusive overall. The stitching is complete, good and very detailed, both on the corners and edges and on the patterns on the surface of the cushion. There are no production residues, so the surface is smooth and pleasantly even. The cushion is very comfortable both due to the chosen material and the addition of aloe vera.

In the practical test, the feel of the material and the softness were tested first. The natural feather pillow was fully convincing on both counts. It is a very pleasantly soft and comfortable pillow that adapts comfortably to any sleeping position. No unpleasant feeling was felt at any time, whether lying on the side, back or stomach. The product is free from unpleasant chemical odours thanks to its very sustainable and allergy-friendly production. No unpleasant odours were detected when changing sleeping position or falling asleep. Similarly,no skin irritation was detected after a total of 48 hours.

*Themaximum score is 100 points

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 €49.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €34.99 . The natural feather pillow from Befa® is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €39.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
