Marlow makes allergy friendly pillows using cooling infused memory foam to provide adjustable support and maximum comfort. 

Marlow – a new subbrand from the creators of Brooklinen – is the Goldilocks of pillows with an innovative combination of cooling comfort, support and adjustability. Marlow’s standout feature is the unique zipper detail on both sides of the pillow that makes adjusting the firmness a breeze – keep the pillow unzipped for more loft and fluffiness, keep it zipped for a firmer feel, or mix and match between the two based on your mood each night. The pillow is 100% vegan and allergy friendly with cooling-infused memory foam, an antimicrobial exterior and a supremely soft 100% cotton shell.

Marlow's pillows offer adjustable firmness and cooling features, highly appreciated by many users. They are also durable and maintain their shape over time. However, some users find them too firm even at their softest setting. The pillowcases are reported to be rough and uncomfortable, and they do not match well with other bedding.

I really love this pillow - particularly the fact that I can adjust firmness levels simply by zipping/unzipping instead of having multiple pillows to hit each level of firmness. The packaging was cute and well done. I also love that it actually stays (mostly) cool. The only issue I have is the pillowcase - it's such a stark white that it really stands out on the bed and it's not the most comfortable thing. I think if the brand can work on the pillowcases, they'll have even more success!

Cooling and comfortable, as advertised! I like a lower pillow, so this one is a teensy bit high but it is firm and not overly squishy. 

I was expecting a fluffier/softer pillow but it's actually super stiff regardless of whether you have it fully zipped or unzipped. I'm mainly a side sleeper and I had it fully zipped the first couple nights but it was too low and hard, so I unzipped it on one side which is better height-wise but still stiff, so then I unzipped it all the way and it STILL manages to be rock hard and unsupportive. I have to shove my hand under my pillow in order to get any support. And sleeping on your back is just asking to break your neck.

It doesn't feel like memory foam at all. My previous pillow was memory foam that was soft and cushy but still very supportive. This pillow is both unsupportive and, again, rock hard regardless of how you've adjusted it.

While I do actually like the stiffer pillow case as it feels super durable and good quality, I covered it with a silk pillowcase to better match our bedding and to help with skin & hair smoothness.

While I appreciate the innovation behind the product, it needs some major improvements. I gave this pillow a 2 week trial run and woke up feeling like someone took an axe to my neck and shoulder this morning so I will be switching back to my previous pillow. Overall way overhyped.

I had Casper pillows that had died after a couple of year so I decided to grab this in a Thingdrop. And I surprisingly love it. I am very picky with pillows but I think this is a great pillow. The zippers seem odd until you try them. It really gives you the option of soft medium or hard, but it's so easy to do. I am personally like a medium to soft pillow person and the double open zipper works best for me. I really do recommend this pillow! 

The pillow protector was not for me though, it is very thick and it is also tight so it did not allow me to utilize the double open zipper option.

Finding a pillow is really tough. I want one that's firm and thick (control yourselves) but not so thick it gives me a crick in my neck (seriously, get it together). My old favorite pillow is no longer being made and was starting to give out, so I was nervous. 

Happily, this pillow from Marlow (and the accompanying protector) has been great. I keep it zipped all around, it holds its shape overnight, I'm sleeping great, and no neck pain.

I bought this through a thing drop. It’s nicely made and I appreciate that it includes a cover. I do feel like it stays cool as advertised. The quality is excellent. However I bought this for my husband who is mostly a stomach sleeper and this was too firm for him.  I don’t feel like the zippers that adjust the loftiness really made enough of a difference to accommodate sleepers of all positions. However, as a side sleeper who likes a bigger pillow, it’s working out very well for me!

I received this pillow through Thingdrop and it has been great! I like a softer pillow and found that even with both zippers open, it still runs pretty firm. I wasn’t a huge fan of the pillowcase as it was firm and a bit uncomfortable compared to a silk or cotton case. Overall, I would still highly recommend!

I ordered this for my husband as he had mentioned wanting a new cooling pillow. He has really enjoyed it and says he would get another one when it’s time to replace it. The pillow is firm and cool to the touch. The ability to adjust the firmness is great!

I find this pillow really nice! I'm a firm pillow type of person, so marlow works for me. However, my partner wasn't a fan at all, so giving it 4 stars for the variety in takes :)
