Editorial Reviews:
|
This heavy duty enclosure is filled with a special foam/gel. Just add water to the fill port and place it in your pillow case with the medical-grade cloth face up. The Chillow pulls heat away from your head, quickly dropping the surface temperature. Use the Chillow to help you sleep better during those warm summer months. Not only will you save money by not running the AC as often, but you'll also improve your health. The Chillow can also be used in lieu of an ice pack. Its cooling effect works wonders on sunburns, swollen joints, and strained muscles. In fact, anything you'd use an icepack for, the Chillow can help, without freezing! And because it's not as cold as an icepack, you can use it for a longer period of time without discomfort or melting ice.

Summary: Just Not For Me
Comment: While I love the concept of this product, it just didn't work well for me. The instructions are rather detailed and you have to follow them carefully. I did that and didn't notice much coolness. I did put the pillow in the refrigerator as instructed and was in heaven for all of about 2 minutes. I think it's just that I'm an incredibly warm person and I'm not sure that anything less than a bag of ice is going to cool me off when I'm sleeping. The worst part is I'm not even near menopause yet...that's going to be even more fun!
I did read the reviews before I purchased this product and even though there were good and bad, I decided to try it. I will be returning it. I think this is just one of those products that you can't make a judgment based on what others say because everyone is different. As I said, I'm warm pretty much all the time. I tried the Chillow when it was 80 at night and I have no air conditioning, only fans. Of course it's too warm, so I waited till the weather cooled before making a decision. It didn't seem to matter, I would awake in the middle of the night with my hair soaking wet from the Chillow either retaining the heat or not releasing it properly. It could well be that I didn't follow the instructions carefully enough. Either way, I'm thinking this just isn't the miracle that I was hoping to find. Wish you all luck though! Stay cool ;-)

Summary: it's a lifesaver
Comment: For those of us suffering through menopause, this product has been a lifesaver. After discontinuing HRT, the hot flashes are pretty bad and interfere with sleep. This product keeps you cool through the night and minimizes waking up due to the hot flash. I love it.

Summary: great product
Comment: I bought this for my fiance who gets very hot at night and he loves it. It isn't a substitute for AC, but it is definitely cold. It takes a little bit of time to set up (you have to fill it with water then wait 4 hours to start getting air out) but it's worth it.

Summary: Chillow does NOT deliver on its promise!
Comment: Bought the chillow for my hubby who sweats all night long even with the fan and AC going.
It was a pain in the butt to fill the first time and we had water leakage everywhere when trying to get out the air bubbles despite letting it sit for a full 4 hours as recommended.
He finally started using it to dismal results. It is cool at first but then fades away unless you constantly keep moving it around. (same thing you can do with a regular pillow when you're trying to find a cool spot)
Problem with moving it is that it weighs approx 3-5lbs and slides all over the place in the pillow sack! The product also smells like rubber...yuck! Not pleasant.
I would NOT recommend this to a friend and if I was not so stubborn, I wouldv'e listened to the negative comments before I purchased it and saved my money.
I took a chance and regret it. Don;t be foolish like I was. Don;t bother with the Chillow.
PS- Sorry OPRAH, this is NOT a "favorite thing".
