If you’re familiar with any of our specialty pillow guides, you know there are two aspects of any cushion we value over any other:
In other words: what is it made of and how is it covered. These elements play a crucial role in determining the overall comfort, durability, and hygiene of the pillow. High-quality materials ensure that the pillow provides the necessary support, while a well-designed cover enhances its aesthetic appeal and protects it from wear and tear. Ultimately, the right combination of materials and cover will not only enhance your comfort but also prolong the life of your cushion, making it a worthwhile investment for your home or travel needs.
We want the plush to be comfortable, hygienic, and safe. As you might have realized, the majority of pillows in this list are made of either cotton or PP cotton. The difference is that the former is a natural fiber, whereas the latter is man-made. PP stands for polypropylene, which is a kind of polymer used in a wide variety of products, from clothes and stuffing to diapers and sanitary products.
On the one hand, PP cotton is not the organic material its name makes it out to seem. However, by its very nature, it is quite breathable, resistant, and hygienic (and recyclable!). This makes it an excellent choice for car seat pillows, as it helps to regulate temperature, ensuring you stay comfortable during long drives. Furthermore, the lightweight nature of PP cotton contributes to its ease of handling, making it simple to remove and clean when necessary. Additionally, cotton offers a soft, natural feel that many users prefer, providing a cozy and inviting touch to your travel experience.
Both materials are designed to withstand daily wear and tear, ensuring longevity and sustained comfort for all passengers. Ultimately, whether you choose cotton or PP cotton, you can rest assured that your car seat pillow is crafted with quality and safety in mind.
When it comes to the cover, two main needs arise for a pillow of its kind:
By “getting dirty” we mean wear-resistance but also breathability.
The later is important because a pillow made to be slept on in a car is a pillow bound to get moist (saliva, water, juice…). Consequently, we want the moisture to dissipate quickly so it doesn’t lead to the not-so-fun stuff we detailed in this other post.
On the other hand, when the pillow eventually gets dirty (and it will- it’s a pillow for kids), we want to be able to wash it easily. Hence why a removable and machine-washable cover is preferable.
As you might have noticed, the cover in most of these car seat belt pillows is made of micro-suede. Micro-suede is a microfiber, a fine synthetic fiber with a diameter smaller than ten micrometers, making it incredibly versatile. Microfiber fabrics are usually soft to the touch, lightweight, breathable, easy to clean, and wrinkle and wear-resistant, making them ideal for everyday use. This ensures that your car seat pillow maintains its appearance and comfort over time. Micro-suede, as its name indicates, is a microfiber designed to feel and look like actual suede, offering a luxurious texture that adds a touch of elegance to your car’s interior while providing comfort during long drives.
In addition to its aesthetic appeal, micro-suede is also highly durable, resisting stains and spills, which is particularly beneficial for families or frequent travelers. Its hypoallergenic properties make it a safe choice for everyone, ensuring a pleasant travel experience without the worry of allergens. Overall, micro-suede combines functionality with style, making it an excellent choice for car seat belt pillows.
