Protocolo de prueba de almohadas v0.4
Goal
The point is repeatability.
Past soft
A resena de almohada should go past "soft."
What gets checked
Weight, calor, time, washing, y a normal human rolling around on it.
Equipment
- Digital kitchen scale, accurate enough for almohada weight.
- Tape medir o large calipers for altura y size.
- Flat board, 12 x 12 inches, for compresion prueba.
- 10 lb y 20 lb weights. Record actual weight.
- IR thermometer o probe thermometer for surface temperature.
- Heating pad con repeatable setting.
- Washer/dryer access if care label allows washing.
- Cuaderno o spreadsheet. Vibes-only scoring goes in the trash.
Measurement Steps
| Metric | Metodo | Por que importa |
|---|---|---|
| Altura libre | Fluff almohada per instructions. Wait 30 minutes. Medir center altura y edge altura. | Starting altura. Marketing loft usually lives here. |
| Compressed loft | Place board on almohada center. Add 10 lb for 5 minutes. Medir altura under load. | Closer to what your head gets. |
| Recuperacion | Remove weight. Medir at 1 minute y 60 minutes. | Shows flattening y slow rebound. |
| Calor retention | Apply heating pad for 10 minutes. Record surface temp at 0, 5, y 10 minutes after removal. | Durmientes calurosos care about calor leaving after the first cool fabric touch. |
| Relleno migration | Sleep 3 nights. Mark if fill piles, hollows, clumps, o needs major reshaping. | Common shredded-fill problem. |
| Lavado result | Follow care label. Medir drying time, clumping, shrink, odor, y cover warping. | A washable almohada that dries badly is convenience theater. |
Alineacion Prueba
The user lies on the almohada in lado, boca arriba, y boca abajo positions when relevant. Take a straight-on photo from the foot of the bed y one lado photo. The goal is neutral head-cuello alineacion. Leave injury diagnosis to clinicians. si pain, numbness, o persistent symptoms are present, tell the reader to see a clinician.
Puntaje Formula
overall = soporte * 0.35
+ comodidad * 0.20
+ temperature * 0.15
+ durabilidad/recuperacion * 0.15
+ cleaning/politica/valor * 0.15
Harder Metrics
| Index | Meaning | Failure mode it catches |
|---|---|---|
| PFI | PillowFit Index. Composite of alineacion error, calor, lavado loss, rebound, y comodidad. | Pretty almohada that cannot hold a cuello correctly. |
| LDI | Load Deflection Index. How much altura survives under a 10 lb head-weight load. | Big fluffy almohada that collapses to nothing. |
| TRI | Thermal Retention Index. Calor rise plus material penalty o credit. | Cool-to-touch cover that turns warm later. |
| WDI | Lavado Durabilidad Index. Altura retention after label-allowed cleaning. | Washable almohada that clumps y dies. |
| 95% CI | Repetibilidad interval from five repeated loft readings. | Unstable fill that cannot medir the same twice. |
Publishing Regla
A sponsored prueba can exist, but it must be labeled at the top of the resena. Affiliate links are allowed in resenas. A brand cannot buy a better score. This is basic hygiene.
Prueba Queue Table
The table below uses notas de puntaje from especificaciones, propietario patterns, y category behavior. Once a almohada is bought, measured, slept on, y washed when the tag allows it, the score can move.
| Status | Almohada | PFI | Altura con 10 lb | LDI | TRI | WDI | Alineacion error | Laboratorio verdict |

Esto cuesta
Un buen protocolo es barato de leer y molesto de correr. Pesas, lavados, almohadas malas, recibos y almacenaje.
