Product Description This unique product requires no headphones as there is a speaker built inside pillow. More comfortable than headphones with the soft hollowfibre filling you cannot feel the speaker inside. It's ideal as only you can hear your personal sounds so your partner can sleep in peace. It allows you to drift off to your favourite music and not be woken up later by the noise of your stereo as the sound pillow will stop playing once your selected songs end. People who experience tinnitus can use the sound pillow to create a background noise which can help them fall asleep. Some insomniacs can benefit from the soft sounds of music or relaxation tracks. The sound pillow has a number of uses like listening to audio books or learning a foreign language relaxation or self-help tracks additional comfort whilst listening to music or the television in bed without disturbing your partner. It's also ideal to take on long journeys for a comfortable source of entertainment in the car train or plane and other passengers will not be disturbed. It requires a music source such as your MP3 player radio as long as it has a 3.5mm stereo plug to connect the pillow to. The pillow will not emit any sound until it is connected to your device. The cable is removable to keep the pillow tidy and safe when it's not in use. Although you cannot machine wash the sound pillow it can be wiped clean and air dried. Not recommended for children under 5 years. Music source is not included.
worse than headphones for noise. Will disturb partners everywhereDecember 8, 2008 T. Marshall 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am REALLY disappointed with this product. I was so looking forward to getting this as a gift for my wife so she didnt have to wear earphones when she wanted to fall asleep to music. Problem is its sooo noisy. with someone resting with their head over the speaker I can hear the music and lyrics clearly from across the (quiet) room!!
it totally defies the point of designing such an item and would cause issues even in a dorm yet alone when you lie down next to your loved one.
If you have a child who has issues with sleeping then perhaps this would be good if they have their own room, although then you may as well put the stereo on quietly next to their bed. Even with it at its quietest so the intended listener can just about hear it. the partner will hear it just as well.
Great idea for a lone sleeper but unless your partner doesnt mind listening to your music (in which case put the stereo on and get a better sound) or is a narcoleptic DONT buy this product!
Having said that I bought the memory foam version, perhaps the normal pillow is better although I doubt it will make too much difference.

I got this for my birthday last year and its great. I use it with a little mp3 player that clips to the inside of the pillow Sandisk SDMX11N-2048K-E70 MP3 Player Sansa Clip 2GB Black, which has a sleep function so you can set it turn off automatically. I use it every night and now wonder how I ever lived without it.

Purchased this and the RadioShack pillow speaker. Not much to choose between them on sound quality. However, the RadioShack speaker is half the price, you can keep your favourite pillow (undoubtedly more comfortable), and it is definitely less likely to be heard by your sleeping partner.

I bought this pillow for my mum who is always listening to a personal CD player at night because she has trouble sleeping. She says it is great! She says the only down point is that the speaker is not the loudest but she says that is probably healthier for hers ears anyway!
