How often should pillows be replaced?

Updated: Mar 4, 2023


Sleeping well at night is essential for your effectiveness throughout the day. To optimize this, you should try hard to improve your bedding. An essential factor of how well you not only sleep but REST, is having pillows in a good shape. You don't want your pillows to lack support or to lose their hypoallergenic function.


For that, it is crucial to know how often you should be changing your pillows. Many medical experts recommend that they should be replaced, on average, from 1 to 2 years. This time span can be extended or reduced depending if you look after them or not.

It is also a matter of fact that recently there are more durable pillows, launched by different companies. But generally, 1 to 2 years to change pillows is convenient. The good part is that you most probably will identify when these pillows are of no good anymore. Indirect signs such as constant movement to find a comfortable position at night or neck pains normally mean they need change.


It is also a good idea to buy pillows made out of long-lasting materials or pillows that can be easily washed. Every time sheets are washed, try to wash the pillowcases and the pillow itself as well. This will help enormously, even if it does not look like it.
