Side sleepers: The distance between the mattress and the head area is greatest in the side position. In order for the shoulder to sink into the mattress, the pillow must not reach under the shoulder, but only support the head and neck. The recommended pillow size is therefore a supporting pillow of 40×80 cm or 40×60 cm. Depending on the contours of your body (wide or narrow shoulders), the height required may vary - in this case you should try lying on the pillow and have a second person check whether the spine forms a straight line and its shoulder axis is at right angles to the mattress. If your neck area is considerably narrower in relation to the width of your head, you will lie most comfortably on an ergonomically shaped neck support pillow, otherwise soap-shaped pillows are also recommended. Back sleepers: If you are lying on your back most of the time, you should make sure that you do not choose your pillow too high. A relatively flat pillow is usually sufficient to keep your head horizontal - it should never be tilted upwards. In this sleeping position, the pillow's main task is to provide correct support for the lordosis in the cervical spine area, so it is best to lie on a flat neck support pillow, which supports the cervical spine by means of an ergonomic elevation in the lower pillow area and does not reach under the shoulder area. If you have a pronounced hunchback, you may need a slightly higher pillow to lie comfortably. Abdominal sleepers: In the not recommended prone position, no pillow is actually needed, since raising the head area inevitably leads to overstretching the neck and bending the spine in the direction of the hollow back. Also, the neck vertebrae are strongly twisted when using a pillow. If you cannot sleep at all without a pillow, you should only use a very flat pillow, in which you should not sink in if possible - only in this way is it possible to breathe without having to turn your head even more. Some manufacturers offer specially shaped pillows for this purpose, which have a hollow in the nose and mouth area.

Probably the best known is still the classic feather pillow, which provides the right feather pleasure during a pillow fight. However, the very puffable pillows in the size 80×80 cm with a filling of feathers and down are no longer the non-plus-ultra among pillows and ergonomically not really recommended.

The baking mats receive a solid 4.1 out of 5 stars and a customer writes: “Durable and easily washable permanent baking foil. In spite of the very thin and flexible material, it is very hard-wearing. It was even used as a base in the springform pan. Odourless and no baking or sticking of vegetables, meat, etc. Easy to wash off even with heavy soiling. Highly recommended if you want to switch from simple baking paper to a permanent solution”.

The fact that house dust mites live in every mattress is an annoying fact, especially for allergy sufferers. These tiny creatures love it dark, damp and warm. Because they live on skin flakes and multiply rapidly, a double bed can contain up to a million of these unpleasant little creatures. Their natural enemy, the predatory mite, seems to be extinct.

The purpose of a pillow is to fill the space between the mattress and the head/neck in such a way that the cervical spine does not bend and the head is neither tilted up nor down when lying down. Depending on the sleeping position, both the shape of the cavity to be filled between the mattress and the head/neck area and the height of the required support vary. A pillow should therefore be selected so that it supports you perfectly in the sleeping position in which you lie most of the time.

If the bulging force decreases, if hollows are visible in the core or if the foam becomes brittle, it is time to buy a new cushion. For hygienic reasons, a non-washable pillow should be replaced after two years at the latest. Pillows with a foam core last on average about five years. Since loose fillings suffer from material fatigue a little faster (material is “compressed”) and thus lose their bulk and support strength, it can be useful to replace the pillow after about three years or at least have it refilled.

Pillows with loose filling should be shaken regularly to maintain their bulkiness and adaptability.For washable fillings it is recommended to wash the complete pillow approx. every six months, the same applies to washable covers of neck support pillows with foam core. If the user perspires heavily or is allergic to house dust, more frequent cleaning may be advisable.

The biggest advantage of the baking mat made of glass fibre mesh over silicone is that it is even more flexible and that no plastic is required for production.The disadvantage, however, is that unlike the silicone baking mat, this does not catch dripping fat, which means that the baking tray has to be cleaned afterwards.

Numerous dog and cat parents have already come up with the idea and one customer writes in her evaluation: “I have also become addicted to baking madness, but the previous procedure for a dog and six cats was too time-consuming for me - kneading, rolling out, cutting out etc.”. So I started looking for the best baking mat (and found it in it)“.
