I've had my pillow forever over 10 years this one was for my daughter to help with her headaches she was getting in the morning because of bed sleep positions.
Wow. As a previously very happy TP customer of 10 years, I'm pretty surprised to be writing this. I purchased this for my wife but neither of us can bare sleeping on it despite trying for weeks for a non-existent breakin. For reference, I am 160lbs, 5'10" my wife is 125lbs @ 5'10". * Materials are not at all the same. * Too stiff. There's very little give, and has been 0 "break in" over the course of several months. * Uncomfortable on neck -- the lack of "give" in the pillow causes your neck to be craned up in a very uncomfortable position. * The pillow smells. Though that has decreased in the last few months. * No return policy. Ouch.
After many years of using my first neck contour pillow, I ordered a new one. It was much firmer than my previous one and irritated my neck. Strong smell from the pillow despite washing the cover and allowing it to air out. I wish the return policy were different as I have liked this product in the past.
It is taking a long time to adjust to this pillow. I have used Tempur-Pedic pillows for years and have always been very satisfied. This pillow feels like it is made out of a stiffer material. Hopefully it will soften up. Not thrilled.
The pillow is everything you would expect from a great tempurpedic pillow, but it was too thin and didn't support my neck properly. I tried to return it and was told that there is a no-return policy...even for the second, unopened pillow I purchased. I'm disappointed in the company's ability to stand behind its products and would urge you to purchase with caution.
I had two instances where I did something in my sleep and then I couldn't even get out of bed because my neck hurt so bad. I was only 21 years old when this happened. I have been using this pillow for about 3 years now and my neck pain has pretty much gone away! Still hurts a little every now and then. I am a side sleeper but you can do side or on your back and both are comfortable. I tried everything, muscle relaxers, pain killers, massages. This has seriously saved my neck. I cant sleep a night without it. If you are having neck pain i definitely recommend this pillow. It is a little weird at first but you get used to it. My boyfriend can't wait for me to get out of bed so he can steal it on the mornings i go to work before him.
