Yes, unfortunately for your wallet, the Sleep Crown is worth the investment, and yes, this is a real review. I’m also sorry to report that the dupes don’t cut it. Not even close in feel or softness.When I was little, I had a blankie. It was soft, tattered, slightly lumpy, and absolutely essential for all major life events – road trips, bedtime, sleepovers, camping (though to be fair, we only ever camped in an RV).

At some point in my tween years, I lost my blankie and assumed I’d outgrown it. But somewhere between a wrecked sleep schedule and 24/7 caring for my dad, my sister introduced me to the Sleep Crown (the Sleep Crown Classic, to be exact.)

It’s so soft. It’s slightly lumpy (in the best possible way.) And it has quickly become essential for everyday life – the adult version of a blankie I didn’t know I still needed. It also makes a great gift.

A comfort blankie, but make it grown-up

The Sleep Crown is technically a pillow, but really, it is more of a feeling. The first time I placed it over my head – I got it. The Sleep Crown is a sensory-neutralizer. It helps muffle noise, block light, and provides comfort that makes it easy to fall asleep or relax; but really it does something I cannot fully explain.

For me, the Sleep Crown is cozy in the way a nap at your parents’ house during the holidays is cozy. It provides a sense of comfort in your surroundings while also providing an escape?

So what makes it so great?

When you’re five, nobody thinks twice about you carrying around a blanket or a stuffed animal. As an adult, we don’t really get those built-in comfort items anymore; unless you count an emotional support water bottle.

That’s where the Sleep Crown comes in. It’s the best kind of grown-up comfort object – soft, dependable, and always there when you need it. I travel with mine everywhere. There’s one permanently stationed on my bed, one on the couch, and a spare cover ready to go because my nephew has claimed the extra. (He’s even more obsessed than I am, which says a lot.)


Everybody Sleep Crowns Differently

The testimonials do not lie, you will fall asleep faster and more comfortably with the Sleep Crown. It works for just about every kind of sleeper — side, back, stomach, and even the elusive ā€œdoesn’t know how they fell asleep but woke up in a completely different positionā€ (me) type.

Take Sarah, for example. She’s a side sleeper who likes her Classic Sleep Crown wrapped around her face, a maneuver she affectionately calls the ā€œface taco.ā€ What a sight to behold.

Then there’s Rebecca, my niece and a devoted back sleeper. Because of our line of work – testing and sharing products we love – we’ve accumulated a small Sleep Crown backstock. Rebecca uses the Queen under her head and the Classic over her eyes, creating what can only be described as a luxury sleep sandwich. She also keeps one nearby when traveling, as a cuddle companion.

And then there’s me – someone who likes to invest my money where I can see it: on my bed, and specifically, in Sleep Crowns. I use the Queen as my regular pillow, the Traveler behind my neck for extra support, and the Classic over my eyes. I usually fall asleep on my back, but by morning, I’ve somehow migrated to my side, clutching the Classic like a beloved stuffed animal.

Yes, I realize this is a large amount of money to have tied up in pillows, but listen, sleep is important, and I am nothing if not a woman committed to the cause.

So whether you’re a side-snoozer, back-dreamer, or professional pillow hoarder, there’s a Sleep Crown setup for you. They even sell a Royal Family Bundle now for Sleep Crown families or for gift giving season.

 

The perfect gift for everyone

Know someone who travels a lot? Get them the Traveler Sleep Crown so they can relax no matter where they are. As you’ll see below, mine is always attached to my bag. I am not ashamed to pull it out anywhere – airport lounges, car rides, even the occasional awkward train nap. I bring extra Traveler covers so I can use it without worrying about germs.

Know someone going through a tough time? Get them a Sleep Crown for comfort. A new mom? Get her one so she can actually sleep ā€œwhen the baby sleepsā€ (eyeroll included). Pregnant? A Sleep Crown Mini Body Pillow should do the trick.

I think the moment I really fell in love with my Sleep Crown was during one of the hardest seasons of my life: grieving my mom while caring for my dad. I needed better sleep hygiene, sure, but what I really needed was a blankie for my nervous system. Somehow, it did both.

It might sound a little silly, but the Sleep Crown makes a truly meaningful gift for someone grieving, recovering, or navigating a health crisis. It’s soft, practical, and quietly comforting in a way that goes beyond words.

 

Believe it or not, this is not sponsored

This is not an ad for Sleep Crown, this is our real review

I know it might sound like a sponsored post, but it’s not. This is our real Sleep Crown review, and we know it is worth. While we may earn a small commission if someone buys through our links, making money is secondary to sharing this product that we genuinely love.

We love The Sleep Crown itself. We love the longevity; they even sell extra filling so, as it ages, you can just refresh it instead of replacing it. They sell extras of the ultra-soft, but durable, pillow covers in all sizes. Sarah added extra filling when she got her new Sleep Crown, she just likes a heavier feel. By the way, we also love the founder and the thoughtful, cozy community that’s been built around this brand. We love that it is a female-owned small business.

The moral of the story? We all need comfort, and we all need sleep. Finding ways to soothe ourselves in an ever-present, ever-loud, ever-distracting world is more important than ever. The Sleep Crown just happens to be that comfort item – all wrapped up in a perfectly soft little pillowcase.
