According to a national sleep survey, 74% of people sleep on their sides — that's a lot of people. If you happen to be one of them, then you're probably intimately acquainted with the snuggle struggle. Assuming the comfortable position requires a night-long dance of wiggling, fluffing, and tossing until that one snoozed-on arm begins to lose circulation and then the cycle begins all over again. For the sake of our exhausted slumber sanities, we culled together a list of the best pillows that were actually crafted for side sleepers.
The Sleep Foundation states: "Side sleepers generally need thicker pillows to fill the space beneath their head and neck. Pillows that are too thin do not provide enough cushioning, while excessively thick pillows can interfere with spinal alignment and cause added pressure points to develop." With these notes in mind, we dug through a handful of trusted retailers across the web for raving reviews on supportive pillows that'll do the trick. Shop these side-sleeper-favorites ahead, from cooling-gel types to molded-latex iterations.
Welcome to Hype Machine, our hit-list of the top reviewed products across the web — according to a crowd of die-hard shoppers. Call this your 4-star & up only club, with entry granted by our devoted-to-the-goods shop editors. Reviews have been edited for spelling and grammatical accuracy only.

Brooklinen Down Pillow
The Hype: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 1,844 reviews on Brooklinen
Side Sleepers Say: "Ordering was super easy and with free standard shipping it was delivered in 2 days. I chose the firm pillow. My sleep position is somewhere in the middle of my stomach and side, arm up under my head. I sleep with the pillow slightly diagonal with my head more on a corner. I have been using this pillow for a month and if it has lost any firmness, it was not enough to notice. I love that it is perfect fluffed up to sit up in bed to read, and then conforms for sleeping." — Christine H., Brooklinen reviewer
