5.0 out of 5 stars all the difference in the world, January 11, 2007

I have severe acid reflux, and, even with prescription and OTC medicines, I was still waking up almost every night of the week with miserable, choking acid symptoms.

The first night I got this was the first full night of sleep I'd had in ages. And, ever since getting this pillow two-plus months ago, I have had not one single night of acid-awakening. Not one! The difference is night and day, truly amazing.

An unexpected benefit is that the solid wedge pillow gives a great deal of back support; I've noticed a difference in upper back pain in particular since getting the pillow. It's quite firm, so it keeps your back in a firm line.

This isn't a soft, cushy pillow and isn't meant to be, so do be aware of that. But it wouldn't work if it was. I repeat, this has been a tremendous health benefit for me, in more ways than one.

Also, it's much easier than elevating your bed with casters, and it's portable.

HIGHLY recommended.

I am so pleased with this item. I am a large person with a bad back and even worse neck. I was afraid this would compress flat, losing the benefits of the wedge shape. I was also afraid my back and neck couldn't handle the incline. Not so! It is very firm but still confortable, giving support to both neck and back. It's very sturdy. It is wide enough to allow me to sleep comfortably and long enough to give me room to put my contour pillow at the top and still have head room. No snoring or reflux since night one. The pillow case is soft and fits tight. Delivery was very fast. I would recommend this to everyone, unless you are looking for a soft, cushy, squishy thing just to sit up in bed.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT RETURNABLE!, December 9, 2007

I have slept on 2 regular pillows for some time and thought this would be a better solution to my sinus and acid reflux problems. I didn't realize that 12" would be too high and I kept sliding down during the night. Be sure you choose wisely, as this seller does NOT allow refunds on pillows. I was not made aware of this anytime during the buying process. The 7" height would have probably been better for me. I tried a number of times to contact the seller but did not get any response! I thought they might be able to do an exchange.
