I bought two symphony pillows after using them for the past several years. The pillows were softer than previous symphony pillows. I waited 2 weeks for the new ones to fully expand, but they crushed very quickly. I was not pleased with them. I called the Temperpedic customer service center to see what could be done. I was told because it was pillows they could do nothing. I told them it seemed like the pillow configuration had changed from the last time I bought symphony pillows. I was told no. They said there was nothing that they could do for me. When I asked to please speak to a supervisor I was told the wait time might take a while. I waited on hold for 80 minutes only to be disconnected before speaking to a supervisor. I have been a loyal customer for 10 years to be treated like this and left on hold for a "supervisor" was just disrespectful.
We are side sleepers. Our head weight compresses the pillow down beyond perpendicular to shoulders. Our prior generation of this pillow held our heads just right. Too bad I pitched those when these arrived.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i was expecting it to be great when i bought it. i was highly disappointed. I was expecting a pillow that would replace the pillow from the same company i received as a gift 8 years ago. Which I love. So either the quality has gone down or there's an epic fail with this one. It was so flat that it's like putting my head directly on the mattress. I sleep both on my back and sides so in either position it feels like a used worn out pillow. I would have loved to have been able to exchange for different one but it's not offered. Will not recommend this product to friends or family.
I was on the fence about purchasing this pillow as I contemplated other brands. However, I am glad I went with this one. It is supportive, a nice level of firm, and helps me sleep each night. I am a back sleeper and I like how the contoured edges fit nicely under my neck.
I chose this pillow because I sleep on all sides and was experiencing neck and shoulder pain after a few years with my previous pillow. I decided to try Tempurpedic to get the support I need. While it definitely does not feel like a cloud, it does give the right support and my pain has significantly subsided. I wouldn't, however, recommend this exact pillow unless you like and are looking for something extra firm. I find it particularly uncomfortable for sleeping on my stomach, but it's great for back- and side-sleeping.
