FAQ – frequently asked questions about the 50×60 cm model
Is the 50×60 alpaca pillow suitable for allergy sufferers?
Yes, alpaca fiber is lanolin-free and repels dust mites, minimizing allergic reactions.
Will the pillow be too low or too high?
The optimal weight of ~1000 g guarantees a balance between softness and support – the neck is supported, but the head does not rise too high.
Will the filling break down over time?
Natural fibers can become compacted over time, which is normal with any pillow.
Can the cover be removed?
No, the design ensures even distribution of the filling; clean stains locally.
PREMIUM duvets and pillows
We use only the finest alpaca fiber to fill our duvets. Unfortunately, some people also use the lowest quality, which, despite being alpaca-derived, is unsuitable for this purpose, primarily due to its length. Filling duvets with this fiber will be unstable and may spread during use, creating voids within the duvet, thus depriving it of its valuable properties and the user of adequate sleeping comfort. The higher the quality of alpaca wool, the higher its price. The price difference between these grades is enormous, ranging from 1st to 3rd, for example, by about 600-700%! For this reason, you'll find low-priced alpaca duvets on the market that in no way reflect the properties of this fiber, making their purchase pointless. More information on what influences the price of alpaca duvets can be found on our blog here.
