Who Might Choose GhostPillow …
- Back and/or side sleepers. The GhostPillow has a nice 5.5″ height profile and about a medium firmness level, which offers decent support for back sleepers or side sleepers.
- Those who like the scent of lavender. Each pillow comes packaged with the scent of lavender in it. It was noticeable to me when I unboxed the pillow, but I’ve been told it should dissipate over time. I think the lavender can be pleasing, but sensitive noses may want to take this into consideration.
- Customers who want the option of returning it. This pillow comes with a 101-night trial and warranty – those who don’t like the pillow after using it for a little while can easily return it by following the instructions on the GhostBed website.

Read Full ReviewWho Might Choose Tempur-Embrace…
- People who sleep in multiple positions. The shape, firmness, and loft of the Tempur-Embrace make it a decent fit for all sleep positions. The pillow’s unique shape is intended to help stomach sleepers be comfortable. That being said, I personally felt comfortable on my side and back as well.
- Those who like a pillow with a unique shape. Sleepers will be able to see immediately that the pillow looks more like the letter “X” or “K” than a traditional rectangle. It is also filled with a mix of a foam pad and pieces of shredded foam. While individuals can’t change the shape completely, they can move around the filling more easily as compared to the GhostPillow.

Who Might Choose Either Pillow…
- Those who like the feel of memory foam. Both pillows have that memory foam feel to them (including a slower response), so one’s head sort of sinks into the pillow as he or she lays down.
- People have a flexible budget. The Tempur-Embrace comes in one size and retails for $99 at full price on the Tempur-Pedic website. The GhostPillow also comes in one size and costs $85 at full price. To consider either of these pillows, customers definitely need to have a decent budget.
