Fill and feel
One piece of extra-soft TEMPUR-Material, 3 inches tall
Tempur-Pedic uses a single piece of its TEMPUR-Material in an extra-soft feel, and the stated loft is 3 inches. Back sleepers and smaller frames have the best case for a pillow that low. If your shoulders are broad and you sleep on your side, 3 inches of soft foam can leave your head short.
The maker also says the material helps relieve aches and pains. That is a sales line, not something the ratings can confirm.
Cover and care
A cool-touch top and a stretch bottom
On top, the removable cover is 54% polyester and 46% polyethylene, which the maker says absorbs heat. Underneath it switches to 90% polyester and 10% spandex. Wash the cover cold, then tumble dry low or air dry it, and keep the foam out of the water. Since only the top face carries the cool-touch fabric, the pillow has a right way up, and you will want to check it when you make the bed.
Value
Sold two to a box
A standard pair costs $159, or $79.50 each, and a king pair $189, or $94.50 each, close to the $74.50 median for TEMPUR foam. The TEMPUR-Cloud Dual Cooling Pillow costs $130.90 a pillow and scores lower, at 6.1.
Read the return terms first. Tempur-Pedic offers no trial on pillows and takes them back only if damaged or defective, though a 5-year limited warranty applies. If you are unsure whether a 3-inch loft suits you, that policy is a bigger risk than the price. Its other models are on the Tempur-Pedic brand page.

Questions
Questions about the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud + Cooling Pillow
Can you return the TEMPUR-Cloud + Cooling pillow if it feels too soft for you?
No. Tempur-Pedic accepts pillow returns only for damage or defects. A 5-year limited warranty applies.
Is the TEMPUR-Cloud + Cooling pillow tall enough if you sleep on your side?
The maker states a 3-inch loft and names no sleep position. Broad-shouldered side sleepers generally need more height than that.
