Frequently Asked Questions
➕ What makes this pillow different from other buckwheat pillows?
The Legacy Pillow is infused with Swiss Pine shavings—an ingredient long used in Europe for its sleep-enhancing aroma and calming properties. Combined with our premium buckwheat hulls, it offers supportive structure plus subtle scent therapy for deeper, more restful sleep.
➕ What does the pine aroma smell like?
It has a light, clean, woodsy scent—reminiscent of a fresh Alpine forest. The aroma is not overwhelming and will naturally soften over time, though some users keep their pillow in a sealed bag when not in use to preserve the scent longer.
➕ Will it help with insomnia or light sleep?
Many users report better sleep quality and fewer awakenings through the night. Swiss Pine has been used for over a century to promote deeper rest and is even backed by scientific studies for its positive effects on the nervous system and heart rate during sleep.
➕ Can I adjust the firmness or height?
Yes. Both the inner and outer pillowcases include zippers. You can add or remove buckwheat hulls to fine-tune the loft, firmness, and support to your liking. Extra hulls can be stored for later use as your preferences change.
➕ Is the pillow washable?
The outer Tencel® cover is removable and machine-washable. Just be sure to remove all the fill before washing. The inner cotton jersey liner can be spot-cleaned as needed. We recommend airing the hulls out in sunlight every few months to keep them fresh.
➕ How long will the pillow last?
With proper care, your Legacy Pillow can last 5–10 years. Buckwheat hulls are incredibly durable and won’t compress like foam. You can refresh the scent or replace the pine shavings as needed, and refill the hulls over time to maintain ideal support.
➕ Is this pillow good for side, back, or stomach sleepers?
The pillow is best suited for side and back sleepers who need structure and neck alignment. Stomach sleepers may find it too firm or tall unless adjusted to a lower fill level.
