Pillow sizes chart: standard, queen and king

Pillow sizes sound simple until you stand in front of a shelf of them. A quick measure saves a lot of guessing.

Here is a plain size guide.

Common sizes

Standard pillows are often about 20 x 26 in. Queen pillows are a little longer, and king pillows are the longest.

Sizes can vary by maker, so check each page. You can see the Foam Wedge Pillow for the details.

Our sizes

The Contoured Memory Foam Pillow is about 24 x 14 in in standard and about 26 x 16 in in queen.

The contoured shape has a different outline from a flat pillow, so compare the numbers.

Measure your case

Lay your pillowcase flat and measure it. Compare it to the pillow size on the page.

Our size and shape guide lists the steps.

Between sizes

If you are unsure, choose the size that matches your bed.

Sizes are not exchanged, so measure twice.

A quick way to compare

Write down the size of your case, then the size of the pillow you are considering. Look at length and width separately. A contoured pillow has raised edges, so it can feel different from a flat one of the same size. Our standard is about 24 x 14 in and our queen is about 26 x 16 in. Free US shipping starts at $35, and all sales are final.
