Bluewave Bedding Hyper Slim Gel Memory Foam Pillow for Stomach and Back Sleepers - Thin, Flat Design for Cervical Neck Alignment and Deeper Sleep (2.25-Inches Height, King Size)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I lost my last pillow I had for 10 years by leaving it an Air BnB. I bought this to replace it (3.25"). It took a few hours to reach full thickness and 3 days to "air out" to the point where I couldn't smell it anymore. I left it in an open window with a fan on and flipped it twice a day. Since I think it matters, I'm 6'1" 180lbs. The 3.25 is right on the money to keep my neck aligned when side sleeping. The holes in the pillow are the same on both sides, meaning you can flip it without changing the feel of the pillow. I prefer this as I will flip my pillow in the night in hot weather. It feels neutral as far as heat retention. I do sleep on a plush latex mattress which has more of an "on top" feel vs a memory foam mattress which has a 'sunken" feel to me and a traditional spring mattress which feels like I'm either sleeping on a plank or in a taco, depending on the firmness and age of the mattress. While I like the latex mattress the best, I found latex pillows didn't allow my neck to sink enough into the pillow, so I always look for memory foam pillows that are plush.Overall, I'd call the firmness on this pillow as very plush and a 2-3 on the firmness scale of 10. It cradles the head very well which I prefer as a side sleeper. I don't feel like I'm going to "roll off" the pillow if I try to adjust and I don't feel like it creates a divot if I try to move my head to a different position. I toss and turn during the night, so this is very important to me. I do use a zippered cotton pillowcase with a cotton pillowcase over it, as well as what it comes. So that does have an impact on how it feels vs just throwing a pillowcase on it.I'll watch movies in bed with another pillow to prop it up. It's not as good as my last pillow for watching movies (I think due to extra plushness compared to my lost pillow), but sleeping has been great and only took a couple nights to adjust to the new pillow. I've gone through many pillows since I've had a few car accidents and have bad neck/shoulder pain if my neck is out of alignment when I sleep. I'd buy this pillow again if I needed to replace it.

I've gone through so many pillows. I've purchased on the more expensive side and cheaper side.An influencer, The Modern Nonna who shares many products and only those she uses herself shared this pillow. I figured I'd give it a shot and my gosh it is incredible.Its the perfect balance of soft and firm. I sleep all ways side, back, and stomach. I have broad shoulders and this is probably the best pillow so far. I also run warm at night but this pillow has had no affect on me.

This pillow was a game-changer for me as a stomach-sleeper! As I get older, it’s gotten harder to stay asleep at night when I’m uncomfortable, and lumpy or overly puffy pillows affect me more than they used to. Finally, with this hyper thin pillow I can sleep again. But beware of forgetting to bring this pillow with you when you spend the night away from home!

It's actually OK, not perfect for me but much better than a lot of pillows I have tried so far

This pillow is perfect for me. I sleep on my stomach, and thicker pillows hurt my neck. Be aware that this pillow is VERY thin. But I like it. It is so soft!!! It provides nice support for my head. If I am reading in bed, I fold it so that it’s twice as thick.

Started to sleep at an incline on back and normal pillows would push head too far forward which created a kink in my neck at night, many times resulting in a headache or rolling in sleep to an uncomfortable position that would result in more kinks. Since getting this pillow I sleep stationary from start without rolling and my neck and head feel great in the morning. The thinness makes a big difference and the pillow itself, even though thin, offers a good amount of padding without having too much resistance/hardness.I've been sleeping on it for almost a year now and have had 0 problems with it having an impression or losing shape and support in some other way. It's like the day I got it, doesn't have any discoloration or anything. For the price it's a great pillow and would recommend at least trying it if you sleep at an incline at all because I've found it works much better with that than standard thickness pillows.

I love the packaging and the height of the pillow is perfect for me. It does not feel medium firm as stated in the description. It feels plush.The issue is the chemical smell that has not gone away after a couple of days and caused me respiratory issues. I do have asthma so it was more noticeable. I’d hate to find out down the line that the “safer” chemicals being used in the new memory foam pillows are not actually safe.

Nice thin pillow, just as advertised, very comfortable and durable. It's great quality and looks slim and modern. It also doesnt deform, it keeps it's shape and fits my neck and head well. A lot less neck pain for me with this thinner pillow and it was a good purchase. Highly recommend if you were interested in a thinner pillow that has a great value.
