Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
Tom's Guide Verdict The Helix Talalay Latex Pillow has a natural springiness that means it gently yields to your head and bounces back when you move, so your neck receives constant support even if you toss and turn.

Made from naturally breathable Talalay latex, the pillow's build stops heat buildup even during heatwaves. It has two lofts to suit a variety of sleep styles, and both have a starting sale price of under $90 — which we think is well priced for a pillow of this material and quality.
