It is with great pride that the Cabeau S3 travel pillow has been named as the Best Travel Pillow of 2026 by CNN Underscored. This isn’t the first time we have topped this list or received an award for best travel pillow and it won’t be the last. This is the seventh consecutive year that the Cabeau S3 travel pillow has reached the top of this prestigious list and we continue to receive awards for our innovative neck pillow designs. While our main objective is to design the world’s most comfortable and supportive neck pillows, it’s always amazing to be recognized by a top tier national news organization such as CNN. In addition to the S3 travel pillow being rated as the best travel pillow, we are also honored that our latest innovation, the Evolution X neck pillow, received high praise as another great option to help alleviate neck pain and offer maximum support when traveling on long flights. Many consumers will often ask what is the difference between the S3 and the Evolution X travel pillow and why did we decide to introduce a new line of travel pillows? The easiest explanation here is that while the S3 is arguably the best out of the box travel pillow on the market and the Evolution X travel pillow is the best customizable travel pillow. Neck sizes are all different, some are longer and some are wider than others and Cabeau offers a neck pillow for everyone (even the Kids!). The Evolution X neck pillow is intentionally designed to accommodate all neck sizes to offer maximum support and comfort on long flights. Like a brand-new pair of shoes, the Evolution X travel pillow is intended to be broken in and adjusted to fit the individual. If you recently purchased an Evolution X and need more information on all the customization features, please watch this video on YouTube for further explanation.
