Comfort and Design

Pros:

  • "It’s wide enough for both legs, the sidewalls keep your legs where they need to be so you don’t end up waking up in weird positions."
  • "This pillow works fantastic for post midfoot fusion surgeries. It has helped to relieve my pain and swelling."
  • "Very comfortable device to drain swelling."
  • "This is the only comfortable elevation pillow that you will need if you’ve had an ankle/foot injury or surgery."
  • "The handles made moving and adjusting it a breeze!!!!"
  • "From day one- it was comfortable, super easy to move around (it has handles on it!), and was so much better than stacking pillows."
  • "This was a lifesaver after ankle surgery. My foot/leg was so swollen and painful a pile of pillows wouldn’t have worked. This kept both legs elevated and secure."

Cons:

  • "48 hours, non expanded. Lopsided, piece of junk."
  • "The only thing I dont like is that it slips down towards my feet unless I turn it around."
  • "Following my surgery I needed to elevate my leg. This pillow is too high and uncomfortable for my leg."
  • "It is not memory foam it is just a block of HARD FOAM."
  • "Maybe good for ankle issues but wasn’t what he needed."
  • "Unfortunately it was too high and hard for me."
  • "However, it seemed a bit too large for me. I’m 5’2” tall."

Material and Quality

Pros:

  • "The slip cover is easy to get on and off, and it's machine washable and you can put it in the dryer."
  • "This expands nicely, the cover is very soft and pleasant to touch, and the handles are useful."
  • "The cover can come off to be washed."
  • "The pillow is high quality memory foam."
  • "The fabric is very soft. The pillow is firm but still comfortable."
  • "The removable cover is super soft velvety material that feels wonderful on sore legs."
  • "The material cover is velvety and soft."

Cons:

  • "Definitely does not look like the picture."
  • "Little too firm as well, wouldn’t mind something a tad softer and more forgiving."
  • "The product was clearly not expanding further and was improperly shaped."
  • "This 100% does not work. Sides are thin foam with no structure that kept my broken leg from falling off."
  • "Thinking this was actually memory foam I ordered it. It is not memory foam it is just a block of HARD FOAM."
  • "The only downside is its very wrinkly leaving me to believe the foam could have fleshed out a little more to make it taut."
  • "Cover is loose and kind of looks a bit like crushed velvet."

Size and Adaptability

Pros:

  • "At 5”11 and 350 lbs it is difficult to find adaptive equipment to help with comfort. This one fits BOTH LEGS very well."
  • "It is just the right amount of elevation and support needed."
  • "I am 5’3 and still have room."
  • "It seems to have just the right elevation for my achilles surgery to help with swelling and post op throbbing."
  • "It would also accommodate a much taller person."
  • "I am 5’11” And it supports my long legs perfectly my heel does not hang over the edge."
  • "I’m 4’11” and the length is not an issue."
