I've been using this pillow for a long time and can't find anything I like better for my neck but why oh why is it baby size?? It is awkward in any standard pillow case, sliding around with extra fabric everywhere and looking silly on the bed. The worst part is it's too small to rest your arm on if you're on your side. PLEASE MAKE THIS IN A NORMAL WIDTH!
My wife and I bought purchased Tempur-neck pillows based on the company's sizing chart. Both of us experienced severe neck pain from using the pillows just one night. It hurt so much that neither of us decided to try a second night. The company's policy is no returns on pillows, so we are out a lot of money for a failed "trial". On the flip side, the family cat now has a posh bed for himself as he loves the neck pillow. No point in throwing it away if someone can use it.
This pillow is nothing like the one I had several years ago. I finally splurged and got another because I loved the old one which was a gift. It is thin and has no neck support and is too hard.
I originally bought one of these pillows many years ago on the advice of my chiropractor. It eventually wore out and I was in a hurry so I just bought a conventional pillow at a local store. I went through several regular pillows and still I was having neck problems. I finally pulled the trigger on a new Tempurpedic contoured pillow and the very next morning my neck felt better than it had in years. I mostly sleep on my sides but sometimes flip to my back. Works well in all positions.
Both my husband and I used these pillows for about 1 - 2 weeks only to find that it was worsening our neck and shoulder pain, not improving it. They turned out to be a huge waste of money. We later found out from multiple friends that they had the same experience. Please ask around, and if you've had a bad experience please review these things!!! We wish we had known in advance.
I bought this pillow thinking I was replacing a wonderful one that I'd had for years. I'm not sure if I ordered wrong, if the product has changed over the years, or what. I do know that what I received was small, less luxurious, and seemed much more cheaply made than the pillow I had & loved. It's a bummer.
