5-Star Hullo Reviews (318)

Love at First Night!

The First night I used my pillow I noticed a huge difference.  Before my hullo pillow I was waking up with horrible head, neck, and shoulder pain. No more! With my hullo pillow I am able to adjust it to how high or low I want it. It is soft but firm as well. The noise of the pillow does not bother me at all. In fact I find it rather comforting. The one downside I can think of with this pillow is that it is a bit heavy, but that is it! For people who are side sleepers, back sleepers and stomach sleepers I highly recommend!

Best Pillows Ever

My husband and I have been using our Hullo pillows for about 9 years. We just bought more bulk buckwheat hulls to freshen up one of our pillows. These are the greatest pillows on the planet and I have tried them all. Totally worth the money for a good pain free night’s sleep. I will not use another pillow or another brand. Customers for life!!

Easily the Best I’ve Tried

First, good on Hullo for giving me plenty of time to try the pillow before asking for a review!

That said: this pillow really is great. I don’t think there will ever be a magical, perfect pillow. But this is probably about as close as we’ll get. It’s so, so comfortable, and the coolness of it is actually mind boggling.

Even if you move around while you sleep, that motion only makes so much noise, and I think subconsciously your brain expects that, so it is never jarring. If you are like my mother and buy pillows with silence being her number one concern, this isn’t for you, but for us normal people (haha) it is worth the money!

Solid Pillow

Like most of the reviews tell you it takes a day or two to get used to it. It’s different but that is what makes them great. Less neck/back pain. Better deeper sleep.

Finally, a Pillow I Like

I haven’t woken up to a hot pillow in months now. I think I’d prefer a few more hulls in my pillow. It’s very firm which I absolutely love but it could be more firm for me. The pillow could be considered to be noisy by some when moving around. It doesn’t bother me and once I’m asleep I don’t notice it. It’s a very heavy pillow which has its benefits. My pillow doesn’t move around while I sleep now.

I would definitely recommend a Hullo for anyone who likes a firm pillow. Unless you’re an ultra light sleeper you won’t be disappointed. Like I said in the beginning,

No More Hot Pillows!!!

Wonderful!

I love this pillow. It’s made a huge difference in my quality of sleep and in my neck pain. I love how adjustable it is. I removed a decent amount of the hulls to make it fit exactly how I needed it to. I will never use another pillow. High quality and wonderful results!

Give It Time…

After removing 10 or 12 cups of hulls and giving it a little time to get used to the swishing noise when you manipulate the pillow, I find it very comfortable.

It has made my transition to tolerating CPAP easier as the pillow is extremely moldable, yet supportive and doesn’t contribute to mask leaks or it being pulled off.

Life Changing!

I love how cool and supportive Hullo is. I am now a person who travels with their pillow, sleeping on anything else just doesn’t cut it anymore.

My Neck Pain is Gone. Hullo Eliminated It.

I suffered from awful neck pain for years due to a terrible pillows.  From the first night after I started using a Hullo pillow, my pain has been gone.  I really can’t overstate how this has improved my quality of life.  I used to spend all day in pain, rubbing my neck and shoulders, rotating my whole body instead of turning my neck, and wincing whenever I moved my head quickly.  All solved now. It takes a few nights to get used to it, and I needed to reduce the amount of hulls slightly to be a little more comfortable, but overall it is worth EVERY PENNY.

Sleeping Better Than Ever

As a side-sleeper, I woke up several times per night to adjust my pillow (flip it over, switch it with another, etc). Now I just sleep…

I Love My Sack of Grain

I got a buckwheat pillow for me and my partner. The pillow didn’t kill their snoring entirely, but snoring is down 90% at least. The sound has gone from a drowning water buffalo to the rumble of a old car in far in the distance. I can tune it out and sleep. For me, I don’t wake up with neck pain anymore, and I only have to sleep on one pillow. As an added bonus, my pillow is now so heavy that my kid can’t steal it off the bed for pillow forts.

It took a little getting used to, and the pillow had a faint smell at first, but as someone who gets migraines from strong smells I can attest that it wasn’t strong and didn’t smell bad. To me, it smelled like black tea, almost. I never in a million years would have thought that sleeping on what is essentially a sack of grain would improve my sleep so much, but it absolutely has.

You should absolutely get one, as long as you don’t intend to use it for pillow fights.

Obsessed

It took a few days to adjust, but now I’m obsessed with my Hullo. On fact, I recently traveled for work and had to use the hotel pillows, and I woke up thinking “how did I ever used to sleep on these?” It sounds like a weird concept, but these pillows are amazing!

Great, Supportive Pillow

This is a a firm pillow that takes a few days to get used to.  When it first arrived I was surprised by how heavy it was.  It was also very firm to the point where I thought that there was no way I would like it.  In the box is a paper that tells you how to use it (weird, it’s a pillow, I’ve been using a pillow my whole life).  The card was right, fluff it up, lay your head on it, give it a few days to get used to it, definitely don’t use it with another pillow.  This is a great pillow, but you need to give it a chance.  I use to wake up with headaches or neck pain, especially if I used more than one pillow to try to get some support.  In the few months I have had the Hullo, I have not woken up with pain, and I have slept great.  Also, it stays cool.  You don’t have to flip the pillow in the night.  Buy one, try it, you’ll probably love it.

Life Changing

I’d heard about Hullo from adverts in podcasts and they were so positive I decided to do my own testing.

One of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I have struggled for years to get a good nights sleep. I could never find a pillow to suit, most were too soft or hot.

Hullo is neither, it supports cools and helps me sleep un-interrupted and that is priceless and a genuine health improvement.

I will never go back to any other pillow.

Perfection

I bought this pillow upon a recommendation from my brother. Amazing pillow overall. It certainly allows me to sleep better every night on a cool surface instead of a hot pillow. Highly recommend it!

Love my pillow. I removed a little of the fill as I’m very petite. Nice that you can customize to fit you. Recommend!

I Didn’t Think REM Sleep was Possible For Me Anymore!

After getting this pillow, I no longer have to take so much time readjusting myself to try to find the right neck support in the middle of the night. I don’t have to think so much about how to get comfortable, because this pillow seems to shape itself around you! I have the best sleep I’ve had since I was a teenager, and it feels effortless.

Ideal Pillow For Me Now

I have never been fussy about pillows, but in recent months, I started waking up with pronounced neck pain. I tried Hullo for several weeks and the pain has gone away. I love the way Hullo holds its shape, conforms to my head, and supports my neck. Very simple. Very effective.

Basically as Advertised, Which is Good

I’ve had my buckwheat pillow for about 5 months now. You have to add or remove material a few times to get the balance right, but it’s worth it.

Things people complain about, but I don’t find bad:

Smell – detectable but not intrusive at all.
Noise – a bit annoying for major adjustments/the first of the night, but for minor adjustments or just while your heads on it, not bad at all.
Weight – definitely heavier than I expected, but I kind of like that.

Things people say are good, but I think aren’t perfect:

Shape holding – pretty good, but tossing/turning will change it minorly throughout the night.
Temperature – it’s not actively cool to the touch, but I think only once has it gotten “too warm” in 5 months.

I think those imperfect properties are probably inherent to a buckwheat pillow, and not a fault of Hullo in particular. I’m overall very satisfied with it.

I would recommend Hullo to a friend.

Love Buckwheat Pillows!

I’ve been using a buckwheat pillow for about 35 years.

I actually made this purchase to have shipped to Montana where I would be staying for about a month to visit family and didn’t want to bring my pillow from home bc of the weight and trying to carry it on a plane.

Now I can rest assure that my Hullo pillow will be there for my future stays. Amen 🙏

Heavy, but Adjustable

I love this pillow and recommend it for the eco-conscious.

I really disliked the thought that something I’d sleep on for a few years would end up in a landfill for 500 years. So I decided to try this.

It is heavy. This helps me keep it on my side of the bed, and thus keep my head on my side of the bed. (It was not uncommon for me to have my pillows *off* the bed.) However, moving the pillow or getting it in the pillow case can be a bit more work than you’re used to, as it is 13 pounds (5.8kg). You can adjust the weight by removing some or all of the hulls. If you live alone and have arthritis or other impairment, just know it might be a bit of an adjustment.

It is loud compared to other pillows, but it’s still quiet compared to everyday sounds. And, of course, it’s only noisy when you move.

There is a bit of firmness, but it’s also adjustable. I think it’s great as is.

While there is a premium price for this product, it is a quality product, and it’s the best pillow I’ve ever owned.

I would recommend Hullo to a friend.
