Rank #10 in Best Pillow 2026: Firmness Is a Word, Grams Are a Number
Silentnight Deep Sleep Pillows 2 Pack, Medium Support
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Silentnight Deep Sleep pair is the recognisable name in this ranking: 29,381 ratings averaging 4.3 stars, £18.00 for two, machine washable and hypoallergenic. It is also the lightest fill collected here: 600g for the pair, so 300g of filling per pillow.
That single number decides its place. At £30.00 per kilogram of filling it is the most expensive pillow in this ranking against £3.00 on the £17.99 pack, and the listing itself recommends stacking two for a firmer feel, which is the giveaway. The table also lists the type as a throw pillow and the thickness as 8cm.

An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.3 stars.

Questions people ask
Why is it last?
Because of the weight column: 600g for two pillows is 300g of filling each, which is £30.00 per kilogram — the most expensive filling in this ranking against £3.00 on the £17.99 Adam Home pack.
Is it firm?
The listing says to use one for soft comfort and two for firmer support, which means the fill is light and the firmness comes from stacking.
How many ratings does it have?
29,381 at 4.3 stars, with 65 per cent five-star and 6 per cent one-star: the second-largest sample collected here.
Is it a bed pillow?
The listing classifies it as a throw pillow at 8cm thick. It measures 74x48cm, so it fits a standard case, but it is not sold as a deep bed pillow.
Who should buy it?
Anyone who wants a thin, soft, machine-washable pillow from a known brand cheaply — and not anyone who wants height or support.
How many ratings does it have?
29381 at the time of collection, averaging 4.3 stars, with 65 per cent five-star and 6 per cent one-star.
