Fans of foam (pillows) will be thrilled with the pillows weโre comparing today โ TEMPUR-Pedicโs TEMPUR-Symphony pillow and the Bearโs LOFT-X hybrid foam pillow.
Both pillows are constructed with solid pieces of foam that will never go flat or change shape. However, TEMPUR-Pedicโs proprietary TEMPUR material is focused on contouring, while the LOFT-X foam is on another end of the spectrum with its resilience and bounce.

Who Might Choose TEMPUR-Symphonyโฆ
- Combination sleepers. The construction of the TEMPUR-Symphony is unique because itโs dual-sided. One side is designed for sided and stomach sleepers and the other side is for back sleepers. This is a great pillow for indecisive sleepers who like to change things up frequently and want options.
- Larger body types/frames. Based on its height and firmness level, TEMPUR-Pedic recommends the TEMPUR-Symphony to sleepers with medium to larger frames. Based on my experience Iโm inclined to agree with the brand!

Who Might Choose Bearโฆ
- Hot sleepers. The Bear pillow has numerous features to help keep sleepers cool, including Double Ice Fabric thatโs woven with cool yarn and a ventilated core filling to promote airflow.
- Those who insist on a trial period. Bear offers a 100+ night trial on their pillow sleepers to test out and see if itโs a good match. Unfortunately, TEMPUR-Pedic does not allow returns on bedding, including any pillows.

Who Could Go with Eitherโฆ
- Those who desire a pillow that wonโt fall flat. As previously mentioned, the cores of both pillows are solid pieces โ albeit different shapes and features โ but rest assured neither will fall flat after a night of sleep.
Overall
Based on first glances and first impressions, it can appear that these pillows are extremely similar. Yes, theyโre both foam pillows with washable covers but the TEMPUR-Symphony pillowโs dual-sided design is better for combination sleepers and Bearโs pillow may be a particularly good match for hot sleepers.
