Royal Therapy Memory Foam Pillow, Queen Neck Pain Relief, Contour Cervical Pillow, for Neck and Shoulder Pain, Side, Back and Stomach SleeperOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

A bit of background here, as I think it's relevant. Analytical review after:I have a minor medical condition which means if I run short of sleep for a bit, I risk having multiple days of down time to recover. I have the same responsibilities as most, keeping a career on track, keeping relationships healthy, and keeping myself in a good mindset as I navigate the seas of life.I'm a middle aged 6' 0" male, with wider shoulders than average. (No, I'm not saying this because I think I'm anything special. I just have naturally wide shoulders.) I'm a side sleeper, and have always battled keeping my neck aligned to avoid snoring, or awakening due to needing to reposition. I've been through all the sleep studies. Apnea, if present at all, is quite minor. In recent years, as I've learn more, I've gravitated to firmer, thicker pillows. Those with conventional designs helped, but didn't fully correct the sleep issues.Recently, I ordered an inexpensive contoured pillow, to test this sort of configuration. I was shocked how much this improved my sleep. My wife noted I snore less often, and am more difficult to rouse from a deep sleep. Good signs. The cheap pillow was beginning to soften a bit too much, and also was not quite tall enough. I used it with a very thin pillow underneath.Armed with all this information, I began to research premium pillows, looking for more height, and customer feedback indicating good durability. I tend to watch my budget, but I recognize the importance of good sleep, so I wasn't averse to investing a few hundred dollars if I felt it would improve my rest. I found Temper-Pedic was once considered the gold standard, but it appeared something has changed in their production process, with users noting newer pillows didn't match up to their older versions.In digging around, I found this Royal Therapy pillow. Because the max height was considerably more than the pillow I was replacing, I was concerned it may be TOO tall, so the ability to remove layers if needed was a good feature for me. I needn't have worried. This pillow feels like it was made specifically for me, though obviously it was not.I no longer need an extra pillow beneath. I do not snore when using this pillow. I do not toss and turn. If I had to nit pick, the memory foam can be just a tad warm at times, but nothing which seems to impair my sleep. After a week to allow the pillow to break in, it provides the exact same experience as it did the day it arrived. It supports the void between my shoulder and head, keeping my neck and spine aligned, while my head is comfortable. Nothing but sleep, blissful sleep, to allow my body to recover as needed from the daily trials and tribulations we all experience.If I could give this six stars I would, and unless something changes with my physiology or the manufacturing of this pillow, I know where I'll be procuring the replacement, when this one wears out. Great stuff, and a very happy camper here.

Although the reviews looked mostly positive I was somewhat skeptical that this pillow would preform like the Tempur-Pedic pillows I've been using for over 20 years.I tried the pseudo Tempur-Pedic pillow that Costco sells, made by Tempur-Pedic and it wasn't a suitable replacement for the real thing.These are my initial impressions of this pillow.First off I like that the size of the pillow is the correct size of a queen pillow, unlike the Tempur-Pedic pillow which swims inside of the queen pillow case.Secondary, although the pillow had a mild smell to it, it was nowhere near as strong as a new Tempur-Pedic pillow which takes days to out gas.Thirdly, although the Royal pillow is brand new, it isn't as hard and as rigid as a new Tempur-Pedic pillow, which takes weeks to break-in, but is still firm enough to provide ample support, which was an issue with other memory foam pillows I had tried.I guess time will tell if the Royal pillow will hold up over time and not lose support to quickly. I'll be following up with future updates.

I’ve spent a small fortune on pillows over the years and have never quite found the right one. I just spent my first night with this pillow and I absolutely love it. I woke up without neck and shoulder tension. I’m going to buy a second one. Definitely a good buy. It’s both supportive and soft and the perfect height. I’m buying another one.

So far, so good. However, for the price, I'm wondering why it didn't come with a pillow case.

I absolutely love this pillow and find it difficult to sleep on any other. The height (lower side), is perfect for me once I removed the middle layer of the pillow. It is truly the best pillow I have ever used and I have spent much on pillows( up to 400 on Tempur-pedic grand etc).When searching for a pillow I tried multiple brands and returned-This one was the keeper! Even find my cat sleeping on it:)

Their products are of high quality, we bought the 4-layer and also a 3-layer pillow, they are very comfortable, easy to use, and with the option of renovable layers, if you are a side slepper or back slepper, you won't have a problem covering the distance in between your neck and your shoulder, or spine and neck.We bought so far 3 pillow, one was deliver to the wrong house, but with the help of their customer service rep. Melissa, they were able to correct the situation. Highly recommend!!

Not as comfortable as I would like, but I’m getting used to it. In the morning my neck has been okay and I haven’t had the headaches I sometimes have. I just tried to take the middle level out to see if that would be better. Unfortunately, the zipper doesn’t go around the ends, so when taking the middle foam piece out and readjusting the outer sections, 1 foam piece ripped very easily.

This pillow has helped with a neck issue I was having and has worked wonders! The size and shape is perfect for me to sleep comfortably while still supporting my body. It’s the perfect blend between soft and supportive. I am excited to say this pillow is great and I want to purchase one for my wife!
