Comfort and Design

Pros:

  • "This contour pillow has been a lifesaver."
  • "Because of the shape I can easily turn over or move around and the pillow stays right where it should."
  • "The gel really stays cool, which makes it more comfortable on my surgery knee."
  • "The Contour Support pillow moves easily and provides great comfort for my knees."
  • "It's a perfect little pillow for hip pain. Use it between your legs to keep you aligned."
  • "This pillow is perfect for that. Cover comes off for washing."
  • "I love this product, the only thing its missing is a cover that you can take off to wash!"

Cons:

  • "It's too compressed in the middle and not thick enough to give me relief."
  • "It’s like trying to sleep with a phone book between your legs."
  • "Unfortunately, the pillow is too short and angled downward which gave it less support for relief of sciatica and backache."
  • "It's such a thick wedge that it causes your lower leg to be off-kilter as it slants downward to your actual mattress/sheet."
  • "The 'cover' it comes with makes me sweat gets dirty very fast and is uncomfortable to sleep with."
  • "The item is a good shape, but it is HARD."
  • "It was extremely hard with no give."

Size and Support

Pros:

  • "The height and fit was perfect."
  • "Perfect size, density, shape, especially for side sleepers."
  • "The pillow is the perfect size for resting between your knees."
  • "This pillow is perfectly firm, yet soft and cushiony."
  • "It gives me more support that just having a pillow in between the legs at night."
  • "This pillow fits well between my thighs and knees and I feel gives me better support."
  • "The pillow provides good, comfortable support where it is placed."

Cons:

  • "It’s far too small for an average sized man."
  • "Firm but small pillow. Thought for an adult male it would have been larger. Seems more suited to a petite woman or child."
  • "The small size did not provide enough support for my hips and legs."
  • "This pillow is too small and to thin to give me any relief."
  • "The overall size of the pillow is so small and it's so firm and thick that, while my knees are kept at a good angle, my lower legs and ankles press into each other."
  • "It seems maybe too big for my short legs? (i’m 5-2) And it doesn’t stay in place, and felt too stiff/wide."
  • "The length of the pillow was too small to be of any use for me."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "This looked to be a high quality product."
  • "Just as advertised; durable foam that holds its natural, ergonomic shape well."
  • "It’s a well made and well designed cushion that is small enough to hide in my nightstand when not in use."
  • "It has a strong sturdy shape so it stays in place easily, and still easy to move and adjust."
  • "It is still like new after all this time of use."
  • "It is firm and reverts to original shape after using it for a couple of weeks."
  • "Has held its shape & the cover washes beautifully."

Cons:

  • "The cover totally sucks. It doesn't hold up well in the wash and has ripped in several places."
  • "Took cover off to wash for the first time and the zipper head broke off so it cannot be closed."
  • "Obviously you HAVE to wash the pillow cover and that’s the problem. Zipper ripped within a month."
  • "The zip off cover started sloughing off strands and balls of fabrics which made a mess on the sheets and bed clothes."
  • "Good support in pillow. But, zipper broke after 6 months of use."
  • "This one in the picture is almost brand new and there’s already a rip along the seam and the zipper again doesn’t work."
  • "The pillow itself works well. The issue I have, is I wash it one time and it fell apart -- seam broke as I put it back on, and when I zipped it, thinking 'oh well, who cares about a busted seam', the zipper breaks off."

Odor and Maintenance

Pros:

  • "There's no strong scent from the pillow which is important for my sleeping and sinuses."
  • "Cleaning is easy- machine wash warm in lingerie bag & hang to dry."
  • "The cover can be removed for washing and it washes up well."
  • "Easy to wash the cover as well, as it zips right on/off."
  • "The cases are easy to wash, just zip them up prior."
  • "I've washed the covers multiple times. I let them air out the first night."
  • "The cover can be unzipped and removed for easy washing."

Cons:

  • "It has been been A long time since I first purchased this, and I still cannot use it because I can’t get past the toxic smell."
  • "This item stinks very bad when it arrived."
  • "The product itself comfortably fits between your legs for side sleeper support BUT the smell is terrible!!"
  • "SMELL- it smells like chemicals and mildew."
  • "They still smell pretty icky."
  • "Arrived packaged well, however, the pillow stinks so bad."
  • "Upon taking the plastic off the item, I noticed that it smells really bad."
