CushionCare Premium Cervical Sleeping Pillow

Great pillow! I’ve always had issues with regular pillow causing my neck to flex towards my chest. The poly fill somehow always shifts and i end up constantly turning my pillow in the night, repositioning, trying to find a comfortable position. My head flexing towards my chest has caused a lot of strain in my neck muscles which resulted in tension headaches and migraines.This pillow has fixed that problem. There is no poly fill, so no shifting. And it provides great neck support! My head is where it should be all night. It’s very comfortable and just the right amount of height. I lay mostly on my back and side and it does provide plenty of support for those positions. Although it’s a memory, it bounces back quick like a regular foam does. Your head doesn’t stay buried like other memory foam pillows. The firmness is just enough for me not to feel like I’m laying on a brick, but also not too flimsy to where there is no support.They provide extra pillowcase for washing which is awesome!

For the record, I have never submitted a review so that alone tells you how much I LOVE and RECOMMEND this pillow:Similar to another reviewer, I bought several pillows and this pillow is the BEST one out there!Have you ever tried to bunch your pillow to support your neck?Have you ever slept on your side and your shoulder felt sore the next day?Have you ever slept on your side and you wake up with your hand feeling numb?Well this pillow is so comfortable and solves all of that. It supports the natural curve of your neck. When you sleep on your side, the slightly raised sides of the pillow support your neck and prevent you from putting pressure on your shoulders. It also has a really comfortable place to rest your arms and hands and the raised sides also prevent any side pressure on your arms and hands.Most importantly, you will have a GREAT night’s sleep with this pillow and feel so rested in the morning! I sleep so soundly now!Thank you CushionCare for designing this pillow! I can’t thank you enough!

I have some medical conditions, I bought the pillow to help manage mostly the pain and discomfort.The pillow is soft enough for my fibro and comfortable enough for me to lie on it for an extended amount of time.The cooling gel pad is a small square in the center of the pillow where you rest your head and isn't that great. Initially, I thought the pillow didn't come with the gel pad. I misunderstood and thought the gel was a filling in the pillow itself like other cooling pillows. This pillow instead has a pocket with a square gel pad that can be removed. The cooling it gives off isn't great, it works slightly better if you remove it and place it in the fridge for a bit. The pillow case is a little thick which is what makes the pillow more comfortable but doesn't really allow the cooling feeling to come through as well.The pillow comes already in the pillow case with an extra pillow case, I guess to use while you wash the other one. The foam pillow, itself, comes in zipped in a much thinner cloth case that has the pocket with the cooling gel pad.The pillow has a grid of holes in the center of the pillow, I guess for the "breathable" part but with the two pillowcases (the thinner one that holds the gel pad and the actual softer but thicker exterior case) it doesn't feel very "breathy"... which may or may not be another reason the cooling gel pad doesn't come through that well.For orthopedic uses, I think the pillow works well. I've been using it since it arrived and find it to be very comfortable despite my severe case of fibromyalgia. The foam is formed in such a way that allows me to rest both my head and hands as I like to raise my hands near my head and there are dip spots to rest your hands there. I enjoy this design feature.The pillow so far hasn't deflated much at all over every day use since it arrived. The foam seems to be fairly firm but has just the "right" amount of give to not be uncomfortable or stiff.I would recommend this pillow if you're looking for an comfortable orthopedic pillow but maybe not if you're looking for a cooling pillow.

Since there were so many rave reviews about this pillow I bought one. I have slept on this pillow for 2 weeks before I decided to write this review.Out of the box there was a slight odor of off-gassing, it didn't seem too strong until I slept on it the first night and that is all I could smell and I couldn't sleep. Plus this pillow feels odd and takes time to get used to it. I placed the pillow outside the next morning to air it out for several hours. There was less odor the second night, but still I am very sensitive to odors, and fragrances, so it still bothered me. By day 4 the off-gassing was barely noticeable.The pillow isn't as soft as my other "normal" memory foam pillow. The indented area is where you place your head when sleeping on your back or side. It feels different, but that indent does cradle your head and it does make your neck feel fine by the next morning. However, if you do not center your head perfectly in the pillow, you can feel the pillow dig into your neck at the base which is not comfortable at all. I have to readjust my head often when sleeping on my back. Also My hair is a few inches below my shoulders and I needed to pull my hair up and out of the way or I was pushing my hair into the indented space and by morning I had had lost several strands of hair from the pressure on my hair.I also felt very hot and sweaty on my neck and I have never had a pillow make me feel hot before. I have read reviews on this and other pillows talking about if the pillow was cool or hot and I didn't think that would be a problem for me since I have never in over 60 years felt hot from a pillow until this one.I am switching back to my other normal pillow to sleep with now. But if I ever feel neck strain, I will use this pillow as I do think it works well enough for neck pain, but I don't like it enough to sleep on it every night.
