From the manufacturer
Therm-a-Rest
Our founders' mission was simple: create a better way to sleep outside; because when you rest better, you play better. Their ingenuity and vision back in 1972 led to the creation of the first self-inflating sleeping pad.
Today, we’re still working towards the same mission to craft the best sleeping pads and bags on the market. We’re not just giving explorers a better way to camp, we’re giving them better adventures tomorrow.
Our popular Compressible Pillow is perfect for everyone from international travelers to car campers. The pillow foam is sourced from upcycled foam from our pad manufacturing and the cover is made from ultra-soft polyester made from mostly recycled materials. Its soft foam filling packs small and expands big, with the XL size measuring a generous 16.5 x 27 in. (42 x 67 cm) for home-like comfort wherever you are.

Product Description
The Therm-a-Rest Compressible Travel Pillow is a true travel essential. Ideal for anyone seeking sleep and comfort on-the-go, it offers all the support of home bedding in a small, convenient, and lightweight package for camping, plane travel, car trips, backpacking, trekking, and festivals. Easily compressible for packing into a backpack, duffel, suitcase, or tote, the pillow expands into a 4-inch thick, soft and squishy pillow for head, neck, and back support. The brushed polyester cover is soft against skin for cozy comfort, promising sleep and relaxation in places where getting a little shut-eye can be a challenge. Rest comes even easier knowing that the lofty urethane filling is upcycled—the byproduct of Thermarest mattresses, utilizing the waste generated during production. The Therm-a-Rest Compressible Travel Pillow is available in four sizes: Small measures 12x16x4 inches expanded, 13x4x4 inches compressed, and weighs 7 ounces; Medium measures 14x18x4 inches expanded, 14x5x6 inches compressed, and weighs 9 ounces; Large measures 16x23x4 inches expanded, 16x7x7 inches compressed, and weighs 12 ounces; XL measures 16.5x27x4 inches expanded, 18x7x7 inches compressed, and weighs 15 ounces. Before use, shake and fluff pillow to restore loft. For maximum loft, machine wash and tumble dry. Made in the USA.

When the item arrived I was really pleased to see the fabric. It's poly, but not that slick, noisy junk that SO MANY of these pillows are covered with, it was more like a faux suede, soft, supple, and comfy on my cheek. The pillow doesn't pack down tiny, like some of the inflatables, but it isn't heavy either. When I first pulled it out, it was lumpy and rather under-filled... but after sitting for 15-20, it filled up. Therm-a-rest right? The pillow felt good enough for an overnight, so I decided to keep it and take it on an upcoming 3 night motorcycle camping trip.
Well, to make a long story short, I've never slept so well. I am a bit of a sleep gear snob, I like fine sheets, quality blankets, and good pillows... this pillow is a no compromises, home-like sleeping experience. I guess pillows are subjective, but to me, this is hands-down the best camping pillow that I have ever used. How much do I like it? Well, if it is any clue, I purchased one for my wife, each of my kids, and I give them out as gifts. We never go on a road trip without them anymore. When I car camp, and can take whatever I want, I take these pillows. Combined with my Byer of Maine cot, my memory foam sleeping pad, and my Slumberjack "Country Squire" bag, I get a night's rest that's comparable to just about any road-sleep I could buy in a hotel or resort.
Yes, I know backpacking gear has its place, and this may not be the perfect pillow for that (though I will never be without one on the trail), it's kind of bulky, even packed down (think about the size of a oil-can of Foster's lager) and it's probably not the lightest for weight-weenies, though it is not heavy, but it's the best "camp-pillow" you can get. Period. Also, it's totally machine washable and handles it just fine (ours have probably been washed 100 times), and loses no comfort over time (we've had them for several years now).
Try one out, they're fairly cheap, and I promise you will not be disappointed.
The pillow itself is a microfiber soft exterior on one side and typical soft cloth on the opposite. It does come in various sizes. Inside the pillow is memory foam but it's not a solid piece. The foam inside is cut up into small pieces. I am assuming rectangular pieces. I thought that if they were cut into pieces that it would sacrifice comfort well it doesn't. The foam expands and fills up the pillow nicely. It's very comfortable and I had no trouble sleeping throughout the night.
The only downside I had experienced with this pillow was that they suggest before first initial use to wash it so the foam expands fully. Now what they don't tell you that when you do wash it is that the foam inside retains the moisture. It took forever for the pillow to fully dry. I ran it through the dryer several times and when inwiukd compress it down to store it inside itself it would still be damp.
So quick recap:
Pros:
Ultra portable
Stores within itself
Comfortable
Cons:
Retains moisture when washing making it take forever to dry.
So that's it it's a great travel pillow that's comfortable, easy to pack up and doesn't take up much room.

- Support for a side sleeper
- Soft and fluffy comfort to rest your head on
- Packable for travel (mainly car camping)
The Therm-a-Rest is a great pillow for a side sleeper and super comfortable. You do need to allow it time (4 hours or more) to expand to its maximum loft if it was left in its packed form for a long time. At first the lumpy foam material may feel weird on touch but once you rest on it you will only experience great comfort and you get reminded of how soft and fluffy it is. The packed size is about 1/4 of the fully expanded size so it is great for car camping but It may not be the best backpacking pillow when compared to a Nemo Fillo Luxury Camping pillow but the Nemo pillow cannot achieve the loft required for a side sleeper and it is still an inflatable pillow (with a memory foam topper) while the Therm-a-Rest feels just like your regular house pillow. Just check out the amazing loft you get from the Therm-a-Rest pillow. My family loved it so much, I end up buying another one.
