The large pillows are not as firm as the original pillows. They are too soft and not very supportive. They are also about half the size of the older pillow made 6-7 years ago. Not satisfied with the neck pillows any more.
This might be good for someone small and short. It doesn't provide enough support for me. The other pillow is much better and provides far better neck support for side sleepers.
I had the previous version for years and I still have it my daughter uses it but I bought two for my husband and I they're not nearly as comfortable as the old version. They actually cause neck pain it's so horrible I spend so much money on two pillows for them to turn out so uncomfortable. Save your money and buy ones you know are comfortable these are not.
The pillow is using different material compare to the ones I got a few years ago. it is too soft and it does not support the neck as strong as the old one. I used to buy this pillow one per year and loved it. I decided to come back try this again but very disappointing and I wish they did not upgrade the material.
I've used the Tempur neck pillow for23 years since I was in massage school. Now as a therapist when clients have neck problems I always ask what kind of pillow they use and it's usually the cause of discomfort. I explain the temper-pedic neck pillow, showing them a facsimile by slipping the half massage bolster under their neck (which of course is no substitute) but they get the idea. So when they purchase your pillow they come back and just say "Wow!"
