The question sleep writer Amelia Jerden gets asked the most often is this: What kind of pillow should I buy if I change between sleeping positions? She explains, “The key is to find one that strikes a good balance between what you need for each position.” 

Her solution for those who sleep on both their back and side is the Saatva Latex pillow. It has a pillow-within-a-pillow design: an inner pillow filled with shredded latex, surrounded by an outer pillow filled with fluffy microdenier fiber, a type of ultrafine microfiber. The result is a fluffy exterior with sturdy neck support beneath.

If someone on your list is always complaining about neck pain (or your partner is tossing and turning at night), this pillow is a nice — thoughtful! — gift (and cheaper than buying a new mattress).
