More Details
Structure
* A layer of super-soft, hypo allergenic DuPont®polyester fibre floats over the top of the water layer to provide comfort.
* A thermal insulator fully encases the water layer to prevent body heat from being drawn from the head, neck and shoulders. This enhances the comfort of the pillow.
* A water pouch secured to the base of the pillow provides the responsive head and neck support. Easy to follow instructions show how much water to add for soft, medium and firm support. Use ordinary tap water. No chemical additives are required.

Customisation
The pillow can be customised to provide soft medium or firm comfort by adding or removing water.

Cover
A standard pillow case will fit the pillow


Models
Only one model is available

Method Of Use
Adding water
Use the included Dual purpose tool as a wrench to remove the cap and then as a funnel to add water. Hold the pillow upright using a chair. Fill pouch with a measured amount of water to achieve desired firmness. Remove the air poxket from the water pouch to prevent the water from sloshing. Instructions (with illustrations) for doing this are included with the pillow.
