SNORING. If there is one thing that affects my relationship with Mike more than anything else it has to be sleep – more appropriately my lack of it. Not only does our youngest never sleep through the night, but Mike snores terribly, some nights successfully mastering all 5 types of bloody snoring – from the subtle steam train, to the log cutter, and the infamous shocked Daddy Pig. Trust me when I say, I’ve had to endure them all.
Whilst we have both taken active steps to getting that illusive good nights sleep, switching off our tech before bed, having time to relax and chasing the dream of a whole night in my nice cosy warm bed, his snoring disturbs me Every. Single. Time, leaving me tired and irritable, and of course – taking it out on him.
When we were offered the chance to review Moorezzzleep pillow, a pillow which claimed to help reduce snoring – I quite literally jumped at the chance – could a pillow actually save my sanity?
About the Moorezzzleep Pillow
The Moorezzzleep Pillow is a pillow with a difference and is suitable for every kind of sleeper, from your side sleeper, to your front sleeper, back sleeper or even your LOUD snorey sleeper.
The ideal solution for the front sleeper, the Moorezzzleep Pillow offers a unique and flexible curved shape, with a distinctive hollow area for arms which reduces symptoms of pins and needles and ‘dead arm’.
Around 8% of people sleep on their back, and it is often the worst position for snoring. The raised angle of the Moorezzzleep pillow also supports the head and neck when sleeping on your front, back or side, offering a more neutral position, elevating the head slightly to keep the airways open and help reduce snoring – ideal for anyone who suffers from sleep apnea.
The Moorezzzleep pillow is made here in Britain and comes with a 5 years manufacturer guarantee which is great for piece of mind as at £99 RRP it is quite an investment. That said, I don’t think you can put a price on a good nights sleep!
The Moorezzzleep pillow is made from a supersoft Vasco 50 memory foam interior and comes with a luxury 100% cotton percale pillow case. Additional cases are available at £19.99 each and are machine washable and tumble dryer safe.
Moorezzzleep pillows are available to purchase at Amazon here.
Our Experience of MooreZzzleep
We were sent a Moorezzzleep pillow for Mike, and I excitedly told him that it was on his way. Time to ditch his old faithful v pillow that he’s owned since life began, to swap it for a pillow with a difference. Our first impressions of the Moorezzzleep pillow was that the shape was a little ‘odd’ and not at all like other pillows we were used to. The revolutionary curve of the Moorezzzleep pillow is very unique, and it was clear to see that the hollow area under the curve was ideal if you wanted to lie on your front. We did wonder how comfortable it would be as the pillow is quite firm – if you are used to a very very soft pillow, this may take a little while to adjust to.
After a few “try outs” of the pillow lying in different positions (what a wonderful picture in your mind that will be!) we both thought that the space for the arms was genius, offering the ability to lie on your front and support your head without putting any pressure on your arms at all. It’s perfect for watching TV at the opposite end of the bed (which I definitely did a lot when Love Island was on!) and is far more comfortable than having to shift your weight around regularly to avoid pins and needles.
The first night we tried it I was hoping for a miracle cure (if only eh) and sadly I didn’t get one, however whilst Mike did still snore, the volume of his snoring was much shallower, and therefore I did sleep much better than I had in weeks, managing to sleep through his rumbles which to be honest is normally virtually impossible.
Mike said he slept well, found it comfortable and that he would be happy to continue using it. First hurdle overcome!
The second night was a vast improvement. We had been to my Dads for dinner and he had had a few drinks, which is pretty much a guarantee that he will be snoring, and snoring badly at that. Using the Moorezzzleep pillow I actually didn’t hear a peep! At one point during the night, I actually found myself waking at 3am and checking that he was actually breathing because he was so quiet. I kid you not! He was lying on his side, but you could see that his head was naturally tilted further back, presumably allowing him to breathe more freely.
We have now been using the Moorezzzleep pillow for just over a fortnight, and the results have been variable but overall very positive. Some nights there has been no snoring at all and others some snoring still but much lower volume, which is a vast improvement on what I had been experiencing previously. I have also noticed that on the occasions that I do hear him snoring, that it is my daughter who has woken me first and not Mike, so had I not been disturbed by her, I probably wouldn’t have noticed.
Mike’s positioning on the Moorezzzleep pillow seems to impact upon his snoring levels, so if I see that he has shifted a bit more on to his back, I can just give him a gentle nudge (aka ELBOW IN THE RIBS) and he moves back on to his side, at which point the snoring generally stops.
If you’ve tried other snoring aids and they haven’t worked for you, I would definitely recommend giving Moorezzzleep pillow a go. If all else fails, you have the perfect TV watching pillow, pillow for back massages or can simply keep it for yourself, however in my experience, it’s been just the ticket we needed. Now if Moorezzzleep can just have a quick chat with Neve and get her to stay the hell asleep everything would be perfect!
