Description

Pregnancy pillows are sold on comfort and returned because of space. This dataset publishes the width of pregnancy pillows measured against the three standard UK mattress widths (single 90 cm, double 135 cm, king 150 cm), and the percentage of the mattress each pillow covers. Five of the six rows are pillows sold by Pregnancy Pillow UK and were measured by us, laid flat and uncompressed. We are a shop, not a laboratory, and we state this so the figures can be judged accordingly. The bbhugme row is the manufacturer stated dimension, attributed as such. The Body Bolster width was not measured and is left blank rather than estimated. Filled pillows compress, so these figures are an upper bound.
