I have been sleeping on a Symphony pillow for about 10 years now. Recently, I ordered a new pillow for the 3rd time over these 10 years because pillows do wear out. I will say that the new Symphony pillows are nothing like my old ones. They are only available in regular size as the older pillows were queen size. I knew that part but I decided to bite the bullet and try the smaller size. But most important, the new pillow is very soft and doesn't feel like it has any memory foam at all. I spent a lot of money on these pillows and I am very disappointed.
I have been using the Symphony pillow for years, but always bought the queen size. Tempur-pedic quit making that size, so when I was ready for a new one I purchased the standard. I don't like the shorter length. In addition, it appears they are not making this pillow as dense as they used to, so it doesn't offer the loft I need to sleep on my side. I'm very disappointed because this was my go-to pillow. I've tried more expensive brands but nothing has worked. Now I can't even use the Symphony.
This pillow has caused me such horrible neck and shoulder pain.. i literally had to switch back to my previous pillow. I gave the pillow plenty of time and chance.. thought it was another reason for my neck and shoulder pain but it really is coming from the pillow. Don't get me wrong, it's a great pillow! It's nice and firm, however it is not the right pillow for me. I can't wait to see my chiropractor for these pains.
I was in a car wreck many years ago and this pillow is the best I've found for my neck. I love how the two sides are different. That way, I have more options. My last Tempurpedic pillow lasted five years which makes it a good value for the price.
I was replacing my symphony pillow, that was several years old. This is not a replacement it is a poor imitation. The pillow is mushy and not as supportive as the original symphony pillow.
I think the pillow has too little "give" to it for me. Used it once, slept on my stomach, woke up with a sore neck, and have not used it again. I have an old Tempur-pedic pillow of a different type that I love, so I have gone back to that. Disappointing.
