Comfybud started with one simple problem: Ed just couldn't get comfy at home, no matter how hard he tried.
meet ed
A chronic side sleeper who has a body temperature 30 degrees above any other human being. Sharing a bed with him was like hugging a radiator (great in winter, terrible in summer). Sleeping on his side left his shoulder aching, and with zero support from his pillow, he was waking up all night. Regular pillows just didn’t cut it.
Ed also looooved lounging around at home. But no matter where he chilled out, whether he was watching TV in bed or working on his laptop on the couch, he could never quite find his ‘spot’.
The tossing and turning was bad, but Ed’s whining was worse. Viv knew something had to be done.

Co-founder, quietly wondering how one man could complain so much about chilling at home.
She’d seen body pillows around and suggested Ed give one a go. Surely there had to be something out there that could sort him out. But after a deep dive online, it was all a bit… meh.
Thin filling, no support, pancake-flat after a few uses. Nothing screamed “this is the one.”
So we made it ourselves.
Ed, with years of hands-on experience in manufacturing, got to work on the product.
Viv, with a background in marketing, obsessed over every review, feature and product in the market.
Together, we spent 12 months testing, tweaking and fine-tuning. Five full product iterations and a whole lot of memory foam later, Comfybud™ was born.
We basically said go hard or go home here and filled it with a whopping 4kg of premium PUR memory foam.
Wrapped in silky-smooth, breathable, hypoallergenic and cooling Lyocell.
Topped off with a sleek, invisible zipper that doesn’t jab you in the ribs.
We didn’t cut corners. We didn’t look for the cheapest option. We built the pillow we wished already existed, one that actually feels like it has your back (and shoulders, and hips, and knees…).
So here we are. A pillow made for lounging, snoozing, sleeping, pregnancy, post surgery recovery and everything in between. The kind of comfort that makes staying in feel like the main event.
Once you go Comfybud™, there’s no going back. We’re so sure you’ll love it, we've even got a 30 day comfort guarantee. We reckon it might just be the best $$ you'll ever spend.
