YANA 360° BODY PILLOW REVIEW
Body pillows can be a game changer for your sleep and/or daytime relaxation, but not all are created equal! The Yana 360° Body Pillow is a pretty fabulous full‐body U-shaped pillow by Yana Sleep.
It wraps around your body, contouring to your natural curves and providing support where you need it most: head, neck, back, hips, legs, etc.What makes it standout however, is its versatility – turn it into a chair on your bed or couch, flip it around for leg and ankle support, and transform it into a decorative knot when not in use!
We are reviewing the Natural Latex version – one of two fill types (the other being cooling gel) – aimed at people who want more bounce, durability, and responsiveness.
Let’s take a deeper look at everything we thought about the Yana 360° Body Pillow and help you decide whether this is the right full-body pillow for you!
Company Policies & Recommendations
Yana 360° Body Pillow - Composition
We love companies who pay attention to the materials that go into their products. They make a huge difference to your sleep and health and Yana uses materials we love to see in bedding.
Here’s what the Yana 360° Body Pillow is made of — we are reviewing the Natural Latex version:
Fill / Inner Materials
-
The pillow fill (for the Natural Latex version) is made of shredded natural latex.
-
Additionally, there is a cooling gel version for those who prefer a softer feel.
Natural latex has more bounce/resilience and quicker recovery (how quickly it regains its shape when you release pressure from it) than memory foam, and tends to be more durable compared with foam or down.
Outer Cover – “Classic Pillow Cover”
-
The Yana 360° comes with one dual-sided Classic Pillow Cover (extra covers can be purchased separately). One side is made of crisp organic cotton, the other side is plush bamboo velour to give a softer, more velvety feel. The bamboo velour side is especially good for those who like a more luxurious, cozy touch, or when sleeping on cooler nights, while the organic cotton side is a more comfortable option for warmer nights.
-
The cover is removable, allowing for easy machine washing and tumble drying.
-
The whole pillow (fill + cover) is certified: OEKO-TEX Standard 100 – free of harmful chemicals and safe to bring into your home.
Dimensions / Size
-
The pillow’s dimensions are about 55 inches long × 18 inches wide (roughly 140 cm × 45 cm), a great size for a full-body pillow.
-
It’s a U-shaped / 360° wrap style, so it has arms that go around your body – each of 55 inches.
- The Yana 360° Body Pillow comes vacuumed so it fits in a smaller box. It nearly immediately gains its full size upon opening of the bag.
Yana 360° Body Pillow Sleep Tests
Everything we felt in one box
| Firmness | Temperature | Maintenance | Sleeping Style |
|---|---|---|---|
|
The Yana 360° Body Pillow in natural latex delivers gentle firmness with responsive support that keeps its shape while slightly contouring your body. It does a great job at keeping your legs propped up, relieving pressure in your hips, knees, and ankles. |
The Yana 360° Body Pillow regulates heat very well thanks to its breathable shredded latex and a dual-sided cotton and bamboo velour cover. For warmer nights, lay on the cotton side, on cooler nights, choose the bamboo velour. If you are looking for a very cool sleeping body pillow, choose the gel option. |
The Yana 360° Body Pillow is easy to care for with its removable, machine-washable cover, while the latex fill requires spot cleaning only. Machine wash the Classic Cover on warm and tumble dry on a low tumble setting. |
The Yana 360° Body Pillow suits side sleepers and pregnant users best, but also offers versatile support for back and combination sleepers. We also love to use it in a “chair-like” position while reading / watching TV, using the neck, back, and arm support it provides. |
Firmness
The Yana 360° Body Pillow with natural latex fill, has a very responsive and supportive feel:
-
Natural latex gives its own traditional extra firmness compared to many down or memory foam-filled body pillows. It provides excellent support, bounce, and spring, without ever sagging. Of the two Yana options (cooling gel vs. natural latex), the natural latex fill definitely provides “extra firmness” in contrast to the cooling gel which will be softer / more conforming.
-
Because it is made of shredded latex (not a solid latex core), there is some give: it will mold a bit to curves, but with more pushback (resistance) than purely foam or fiber fills.
We absolutely love the feel of natural latex (in mattresses and body pillows) for the support and durability it offers. It makes switching positions easy and does not sag so your hips, knees, and ankles feel supported throughout the night.
If you prefer something very plush and sinky, the natural latex 360° Body Pillow may feel somewhat more supportive / bouncy than you wish for – in that case, select the cooling gel version at checkout.
Temperature Regulation & Cooling Technology
One of the common issues with body pillows is heat retention; here’s how the Yana 360° (natural latex) addresses temperature:
-
Natural latex has inherently better airflow compared to dense foam; shredded latex allows air to pass through inside the pillow through the night. This helps to dissipate heat.
-
The dual-sided cover has two distinct temperature comfort levels: the cotton side sleeps cooler and more breathable, and is great on warmer nights, while bamboo velour is softer and may retain slightly more warmth – though bamboo fabrics has moisture-wicking properties to prevent sweating – and works great on cooler nights.
-
While we did not feel hot with the natural latex pillow, if cooling is a concern and priority, Yana also offers a cooling gel version of the pillow fill. That version is likely more effective for people who run hot or sleep in warmer environments. Note that we conducted our sleep test in Florida summer with A/C set at 79°F.
The natural latex version of the Yana 360° Body Pillow strikes a good balance in temperature control: better than many solid foam or down-heavy pillows, though not quite as cooling as the gel alternative, while never sleeping hot or sweaty.
Maintenance
Keeping the Yana 360° Body Pillow fresh and clean is super easy and convenient – a big plus for busy lifestyles:
-
The Classic Pillow Cover can be easily removed and is machine-washable: wash in warm water with gentle detergent, and tumble dry on low setting.
-
The inner pillow / latex fill is not designed to be machine washed. Typically shredded latex should be kept dry; spot cleaned if necessary.
-
Because it is a large full-body pillow, airing it out or fluffing / shaking to redistribute the fill may help maintain shape over time. Natural latex tends to retain shape well, but over long use, compression may occur in certain zones.
-
If needed, Yana sells replacement covers: you can order replacement Classic Covers, or upgrade for the “Eucalyptus pillow cover” in various colors, which is made in buttery-soft Tencel lyocell from eucalyptus.
Sleeping Styles
What kinds of sleepers is the Yana 360° Body Pillow especially good (or less good) for? Let’s look at side, back, stomach, pregnancy, multiple use positions, etc.
| Sleeping Style | How Yana 360° (Natural Latex) Performs |
|---|---|
| Side Sleepers | Excellent. The U-shape arms can be wrapped around front and back to support shoulders, arms, and hips. The extra firmness helps maintain alignment, especially in the hips and spine. And if you are a side sleeper with hip or back pain, this body pillow is made for you. |
| Back Sleepers | Good. The pillow can support lower back / lumbar region (by placing it behind), or support under knees. Since the pillow is fairly firm, it can keep the legs elevated somewhat, reducing pressure. For some, you may find too much bulk for head/neck support if you already use a neck pillow. |
| Stomach Sleepers | Less ideal. Stomach sleeping tends to flatten the spine and twist the neck. Body pillows are too thick for stomach sleepers, who will find it prevents proper spinal alignment. |
| Pregnancy / Expectant Mothers | Excellent. This style of body pillow works great for pregnancy, especially in later trimesters, for supporting the belly, easing pressure on the back and hips, and helping with breathing. If you are pregnant, this pillow may quickly become your best nighttime friend. |
| Combination Sleepers / Multiple Positions | Good flexibility. Thanks to its 360° “arms”, you can wrap or shift how you lay with the Yana 360° Body Pillow. The firmness helps so it doesn’t completely flatten when you shift, and the responsiveness of the latex makes it easy to “get in and out” of the pillow. It adapts. So if you move around a lot, this pillow is really good option. |
| Reading, Lounging in Bed | Very good. The Yana Body Pillow is great for propping up the back for reading or relaxing, or even for watching something in bed. The shape allows creating a sort of nest or hug with arm rests, for full relaxation. |
Who Is The Yana 360° Body Pillow Good For?
Let’s help you decide whether the Yana 360° (Natural Latex) is likely to be a good match for you.
Great For:
-
Side sleepers, especially those who want support for hips, knees, and shoulders.
-
Pregnant women who need support under the belly, between knees, and to reduce strain on back/hips.
-
People who move/switch positions during the night (combination sleepers).
-
Those who dislike very soft, “sink in” pillows and prefer a more responsive, firm feel.
-
People with back, hip, or joint pain who want alignment and cushioning.
-
People who read, lounge, or spend a lot of time in bed beyond sleeping, or on the couch lounging – the wrap / U-shape allows versatile positioning for support.
-
Those who care about non-toxicity, chemical safety, eco-friendly materials.
Less Ideal For:
-
Stomach sleepers who sleep flat; the bulk of the pillow will feel too firm and lofted, or require adjustments.
-
Highly hot sleepers in very warm climates: while the latex version is quite cool, it is not as cooling as the gel fill.
-
Those who want extremely lightweight, minimal pillows – the Yana is large, bulky, and heavy (latex fill adds weight).
-
Very tall people (say 6′4″-6′6″+) who might find that the length is just slightly limiting if they want arm support along the full length of legs.
-
Users who want to machine-wash the entire pillow sometimes; only the cover is washable.
