Reading Pillow
A reading pillow is a real godsend when you enjoy and/or frequently read in bed or on the sofa. Often, you end up in a posture that isn't beneficial for your spine. Aches and pains can soon creep in, and the comfort naturally diminishes considerably.
You can simply place the triangular reading pillow against the headboard of your bed, or against the back of your sofa when you fancy stretching out. Due to its right-angled triangular shape, you immediately sit in the correct posture, unlike with a normal pillow. Your spine is supported, and you're instantly comfortable. Reading a book or watching a film with a reading pillow is guaranteed to be a joy.

Reading Pillow for Bed
A reading pillow for bed is the perfect solution for anyone who enjoys reading or watching a film in bed. This bed reading pillow, also known as a relax reading pillow, features a triangular shape that provides excellent support, allowing you to sit comfortably for longer periods. During sleep, however, a bolster pillow can offer additional support.
The reading pillow comes with a beautiful white cotton cover, making it easy to wash (always follow the washing instructions on the label). Covers for this reading pillow are available in different colours, so it always matches your interior, whether in the bedroom or living room.
Thanks to the firm filling, the reading pillow retains its shape and support. You can choose from soft fibre filling combined with latex sticks for added resilience. For even better ventilation and natural support, a reading pillow filled with natural sheep’s wool is also available. With our reading pillow, you are guaranteed a comfortable sitting position, even during longer reading sessions.

Triangular Reading Pillows for Neck and Back Support
A reading pillow has a triangular design, specifically developed to provide optimal support for the back and neck while reading or relaxing. The angled shape supports the back and neck in a natural ergonomic position, helping you maintain a comfortable and relaxed sitting posture.
This reduces pressure on the spine and helps prevent tension in the shoulders and neck, which often occurs during long periods of sitting in an incorrect posture.
The triangular shape also provides stability because the pillow does not collapse or shift easily. This allows you to remain comfortably upright while reading, using a tablet or watching TV. As a result, a triangular reading pillow is ideal for long moments of relaxation in bed or on the sofa.
Beware of cheap imitations
Pay close attention to the height, filling material and filling weight when comparing our pillow with those from other suppliers. The dimensions are extremely important. Many imitations are smaller or lower in the back, which results in insufficient back support and can still cause neck or back pain.
In addition, imitation products are often filled with cheap synthetic filling. While this may create volume, it offers very little actual support and is not suitable for prolonged comfortable sitting.

Frequently Asked Questions about Reading Pillows
How does a reading pillow work?
A reading pillow provides support when you sit against it on your bed or sofa. Thanks to its triangular shape, it helps maintain the correct spinal posture. When using a standard pillow, strain can build up in the back, neck and shoulders, which may lead to discomfort. A triangular reading pillow allows you to relax while reading a book or watching TV.
Why use a reading pillow?
A reading pillow is recommended if you regularly read in bed or sit on the sofa watching films or using a tablet. Without proper support, poor sitting posture can cause discomfort in the back, neck or shoulders. Using a triangular reading pillow improves your posture and makes reading far more comfortable.
Why is a reading pillow better than a regular pillow?
Let’s be honest: a stack of ordinary pillows collapses after a few minutes, leaving you slouched. A reading pillow is specifically designed with firm back support, keeping your spine in a healthy upright position while sitting. It offers the stability of a chair combined with the comfort of your bed.
Can a reading pillow help with back and neck pain?
Yes, absolutely. Most back discomfort during reading or watching TV is caused by insufficient lumbar support. An ergonomic reading pillow fills the gap in your lower back and relieves pressure on the shoulders, reducing strain on neck muscles and lowering the risk of tension headaches.
Is a reading pillow suitable during pregnancy?
Yes. Many expectant mothers use a reading pillow as support while sitting in bed. It helps maintain a comfortable position without overloading the lower back.
What is the difference between wool filling and latex mix filling?
Both natural wool filling and latex mix filling provide an excellent balance between comfort and support. These materials are highly resilient, allowing the pillow to adapt to your posture. They also ensure the pillow quickly returns to its original shape after use.
The main advantage of wool filling is improved ventilation and breathability, which can be particularly pleasant during long use or warmer summer months.
Can I use a reading pillow on a sofa without a backrest?
Although a reading pillow is most stable when placed against a wall or headboard, many models are sturdy enough to be used freely on a wide sofa or even on the floor. The wide base keeps the pillow upright, allowing you to create a comfortable relaxation corner anywhere.
Is a reading pillow useful for gamers or students?
Absolutely. For gamers, the pillow provides support for the elbows and lower back during long gaming sessions, helping prevent shoulder tension. For students, it is ideal for studying or working on a laptop in bed while maintaining proper posture.
Can I wash the cover of a reading pillow?
Most high-quality reading pillows have a removable cover with a zipper. These covers can usually be washed in the washing machine at 30°C or 40°C. This keeps your pillow fresh, even if crumbs or drinks occasionally spill during a relaxing moment.
