Deal: Save 15% on the Ostrich Pillow Light

Posted on by

If you’re like me, it’s almost impossible to sleep on the airplane, train or bus. Between the lack of comfort, lights and noises, it’s just really hard to catch a nap while traveling. While you might look weird wearing the Ostrich Pillow Light, you will almost certainly sleep better.

This compact pillow goes anywhere, and is surprisingly versatile. You can wrap it around your head or neck, providing light and sound blocking, cushioning, or neck support. It’s super soft, keeps bright lights out, and is filled with noise-reducing beads to help cut out unwanted noise.

There’s all kinds of travel pillows out there, some of them with pretty high-tech features. We’re rather fond of this particular contender however, the Wrap-a-Nap Travel Pillow, because not only does it let you rest your head against any hard surface (an airplane window, for instance), it also wraps around your eyes, blocking the sight of other disgruntled travellers in one fell swoop. Even better, it blocks sounds too! In one cool pillow, you get to rest your head, shut your eyes, and close your ears so your undignified ride can pass by an uneventfully as possible. And it’s only $20.

Jetcomfy Might Be The Best Travel Pillow Ever

Posted on by

jetcomfy-1

The indignities suffered during air travel aren’t limited to the stressful security procedures, nerve wracking customs inspections, or cramped airline seats: getting any amount of sleep on a plane is nearly impossible, especially if you’re stuck in the middle or aisle seat. Regular travel pillows barely help, however the Jetcomfy isn’t a regular travel pillow. It packs a host of features that just might elevate it to the “best travel pillow” status. These include a telescoping rod that allows you to attach it to any armrest, providing your noggin with support in any seat. Additionally, there’s an optional USB power pack for charging your mobile devices, there’s a passport/document holder, there are tension coil springs for your comfort, memory foam for even more comfort, washable micro fleece covers, and a luggage strap for easy transport. The makers have clearly spent a lot of time thinking about what a traveler would need in a pillow, and Jetcomfy seems to deliver. Prices start at $45.

Star Wars Throw Pillows: The Comfy Side of the Force

Posted on by

Growing up, we always took throw pillows very seriously. My brother and I would hurl them ninja star style at each other in fits of rage often induced by changing the TV channel during my favorite show. I was normally pretty accurate, but I did destroy my mom’s lamp once with a stray pillow.

Fans of Star Wars can get their hands on this throw pillow set that includes Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper. I bet the Vader pillow would be quite accurate when you are trying to smack a sibling from across the room. I can only assume the Stormtrooper pillow couldn’t hit the floor if you dropped it.

The set includes both pillows, and sells for $24.99(USD) at ThinkGeek.

Use Your Phone in the Bath with this Inflatable Holder

If you thought the bathtub was the one place safe from mobile phone usage, think again. Because now you can take a nice relaxing bath without the added stress of having your phone out of reach or potentially getting dropped into the tub and bricked. The Bath Air Pillow Smartphone Holder is an inflatable pillow with an arm extending out that holds your phone in front of you.

Now you can continue to Snapchat, Facebook, tweet, email, or even read your favorite blog (Craziest Gadgets, right?) while in the tub. But wait, there’s more. You can also use it to use your phone while lying in bed. Plus since it’s inflatable, you can take it anywhere you want- the beach, hotels, pools, trains, etc. Here’s someone using it in the vertical position:

But how does it keep the phone safe from being dropped in the water? I’m glad I asked. It includes a zip-able plastic bag. You put your phone into the bag and then it sticks onto the arm. Here’s a video demonstration showing how it all works:

Since the arm is a separate piece that slides into the pillow, it can be adjusted for length to fit the person. The Bath Air Pillow Smartphone Holder is available in grey, pink, or white and costs $39.

Ostrich Pillow Mini Softens Up Your Arms For More Efficient Napping

Posted on by

ostrich-pillow-mini

We’ve written about the Ostrich Pillows twice before, and each time the offbeat sleeping aids were a hit. But that was mostly because of how odd they looked. The Ostrich Pillow Mini also looks a little strange, making you look a bit like MegaMan or Popeye, but it is at least more practical than its predecessors. You simply slip your arm within and plop your head right down, presumably giving your nogging a more comfortable place to rest. There are holes for your hand and thumb, but the thing can be slid up and down your arm at your preference. It’s made from 95 percent viscose and 5 percent elastomero, which is presumably comfy as hell.

It’s currently undergoing the Kickstarter dance, and a $25 pledge will get you one. Hit the jump for another picture and links.

Windcatcher Air Pakk: Carry Stuff and Sleep On It

Posted on by

Windcatcher Air Pakk

So you’re tired and feel like taking a nap in the middle of nowhere. You’ll have no problem getting comfortable with the Windcatcher Air Pakk, as it’s a backpack that doubles as a pillow when you need one the most. It also transforms into a seat pad so you can sit in comfort, even when you’re seated on the floor or on rough surfaces that might not be very tush-friendly.

As if that’s not enough, the Air Pakk also turns into a sleeping pad when you really need to catch some Zzz’s and there’s no bed in sight. The coolest part is that the bag self-inflates, so you don’t have to lug around a pump, or worse, have to inflate it manually.

Other features include internal removable pockets (think of it as a modular bag that you can personalize, depending on your needs) and a pocket strap where you can tuck in stuff like aviators, caps, and even a water bottle.

The Windcatcher Air Pakk is currently up for funding on Kickstarter, where a minimum pledge of $90 will get you one of your very own.

Admit it, those classic books everyone is forced to read in high school are totally booooooooring. They make you want to take a nap. In fact, they’re probably better suited for napping than for reading. At least with these Olde Book Pillow Classics Pillow Books you can really cozy up with a good book. You can’t read them but you can certainly get cozy with them because they’re actually pillows.
pillow books in use Pillow Books
It’s not like you were going to make very far into the real books before passing out anyway. Cut right to the chase. These “books” come in Alice in Wonderland, Sherlock Holmes, or Treasure Island. Alice in Wonderland is the only one that opens though. All are made from a polyester outer, polyester fiber filling and polyurethane foam. Definitely beats trying to nap on a Kindle.
