What Is Crown Lift® Pillow Fix?

A straight, factual description of what this product is, what it isn't, and how the pieces fit together.

The short answer

Crown Lift® Pillow Fix is an adjustable pillow support insert system designed to add height and support to the pillow you already own—without replacing your pillow.

It is a bedding accessory, not a pillow. Your pillow keeps doing what it does well — the surface, the fabric, the feel against your face. Crown Lift® Pillow Fix sits underneath that fill and gives it a firm base to rest on, so the height you set at bedtime is still there in the morning.

The Crown Lift Pillow Fix system laid out: support inserts and the zippered pocket pillowcase.
The system: firm support inserts plus the zippered pocket pillowcase.

What's in the system

  • LiftCore™ support inserts. Shaped, firm cores in 1", 2", and 3" heights.
  • The pocket pillowcase. A pillowcase with a zippered pocket underneath the pillow, which holds the insert in place so it doesn't slide out during the night.

Together those two pieces are what we call the Pillow Fix: a way to add support to an existing pillow rather than shopping for a replacement.

What LiftCore™ means

LiftCore™ is our name for the support inserts themselves. It refers to the shaped, patent-pending core that provides the lift — as opposed to loose fill, folded towels, or a wedge placed under the whole pillow. A LiftCore™ insert holds a defined height and shape under load, which is the part a compressed pillow can no longer do on its own.

There is no separate LiftCore™ product to buy. It is the component inside Crown Lift® Pillow Fix.

The 1", 2", and 3" options

Each insert adds a fixed amount of height beneath your pillow fill. You can use one on its own, or stack them inside the pocket to reach a taller setting. Most people start with the 1" insert on the first night and add height only if the pillow still feels low.

  • 1" — the smallest change. A good starting point for most sleepers.
  • 2" — a noticeably higher, firmer base.
  • 3" — the tallest single insert, often preferred by sleepers who want a higher pillow.

Because the pocket unzips, the setting is not permanent. You can make a pillow taller or lower it again in about ten seconds, any night.

How the names relate

  • Sanctuary Sleep LLC — the company that designs and sells the product. It also trades under the consumer-facing name Sanctuary Sleep Co.
  • Crown Lift® — the brand.
  • Crown Lift® Pillow Fix — the product: the adjustable pillow support insert system described on this page.
  • LiftCore™ — the support inserts inside that system.

What it is not

  • It is not a pillow. It has no fill of its own to sleep on and is not sold as a pillow replacement.
  • It is not a medical device. Crown Lift® Pillow Fix is a comfort and bedding product. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition. If you have a persistent neck, back, or sleep concern, talk to a qualified clinician.
  • It is not a wedge. A wedge raises the whole pillow at an angle. This system adds a defined height underneath the fill of the pillow you already use.
