Can’t seem to get comfortable,
I think pillows are a difficult item to rate/review given the unique nature of everyone’s varying estimations of what they personally find comfortable. With that said, I could not seem to find a comfortable sleep position with this pillow.
Generally speaking, I don’t find travel pillows especially comfortable– and trust me– not for lack of trying. My work requires me to extensively travel by air (I’m on a plane traveling anywhere from 2 to 4 days a week) across a large territory. I can sleep on planes fairly well, with or without a pillow to support my head. Obviously I’d prefer to use a pillow that increases my comfort (and it would likely be better for my neck, and tension in my shoulders and back), but this isn’t that pillow.
First of all, it’s pretty big, even when secured in its attached traveling sack; I like to travel light, and there just doesn’t seem to be a good place to put this. Second, the flap that goes down the back made it a little difficult to get situated in. Third, the amount of filling behind the neck forced my neck forward into an unnatural position, which is actually one of the two things I’m looking to prevent by using a neck pillow in the first place. In order to lean my head back even slightly, I had to constantly utilize my neck musceles to fight the filling in the pillow, creating strain and tension in my neck. Last, the shape of the pillow on the sides promoted my head rolling forward as opposed to it’s being able to easily tilt to the side in a supported, resting position. Here again, if I wanted to rest my head truly to one side or the other, I was going to be engaging my neck muscles to fight the shape/filling found in the back of this pillow.
It’s worth noting that I only purchased this pillow because it was available thru prime and I wanted it quickly. However, I also purchased a “TravelRest” pillow at the same time (which was not available via prime when I ordered). For my purposes and comfort, I have found the “TravelRest” pillow to be vastly superior, and would recommend checking it out before purchasing this pillow.

|Beware: Reviews might be bogus,
This pillow is not as comfortable as it looks in the photo. My neck ended up very stiff for days because I was forced into an unnatural position. It’s also much too bulky to take on an airplane. I read the reviews today again because that is what convinced me to initially purchase this product. It seems like someone from the company may be posting their own reviews. None of the 8 reviews that were posted all on the same day (May 8th 2012) we from “Amazon Verified Purchasers” which means they did not actually buy the product on Amazon. It seems very unlikely that all of these reviews happened on the same day from real product users. BEWARE!

|Doesn’t support your head enough so you can sleep,
I was hopeful that this pillow would work for a long flight. It’s basically like the traditional U-shaped pillow (although softer) but it doesn’t keep your head supported enough to fall asleep. It looks sturdier in the photos but it’s too soft to hold your head up. I didn’t have a window seat so I had to rely on this to support me and it failed. Nice fabric and a thoughtful design and I liked that it packs into it’s own bag. The other problem I found is that it didn’t fit in my purse because it’s too bulky so I had to carry it.
