Excellent for reading in the bed
I read through a lot of reviews on this and other similar items. I chose this for two reasons. 1. Reviewers talked about it being 'firm'. That is something I needed. 2. Price. I was a little anxious about buying it without trying it but decided after reading reviews to give it a shot. I bought 2. I have back problems but like to sit in the bed at night and unwind on the computer or reading a book. I've done the whole "pillow prop" thing without a lot of success. My back problems have steadily gotten worse. But I just couldn't give up my nighttime reading. Most people talked about how it feels to sleep on it but I wont' be doing that. So far I'm loving it. I turn it vertically in my bed and it makes a great back support. Perfectly firm without a pillow needed. Just be very clear - this is a firm wedge. It is NOT like a memory foam. I won't "soften" after a few minutes. But if that's an issue, a pillow or possibly even a piece of 1" memory foam on top of it would make it perfect if that's an issue. But I didn't want one of those cushy pillows. That's what kills my back. The width is great - plenty of room for broader shouldered people. If you're hesitant about getting this - just do it. It is a good price and seems substantial. I don't think you'll regret it.

Good for my GERD
I use this so I can sleep propped up and not have reflux all night! What I don’t like: It takes a bit to break it in-it is very firm at first. I am a side sleeper so it can be a bit awkward. I am a bit taller than the average height so I use additional standard pillows with this to be comfortable. What I like: I like this pillow because It really props me up so I don’t have reflux all night AND I am not nauseated in the morning! This outweighs anything I would consider a con. Once I got used to using it, I loved it and I have ordered again and will order again and again.

Large Wedge
Good for anyone needed head and shoulder elevation when laying on a flat surface. However, make sure your bed can spare the room or your good with pillow organization, this wedge is large.

Excellent high quality foam support wedge
WOW. The old version of this product was just okay. It used a lower density foam that broke down after a year or so. I wrote a review criticizing the foam, and it seems like maybe the manufacturer read my review and took it to heart. So, last week I rebought the product, not realizing it was from the same manufacturer. It has been completely improved. It is now made of high quality, high density foam. I fully expect this pillow to last well and hold it's shape. It is extremely firm and supportive. Great product! I also really appreciate that this wedge is NOT made of memory foam. Memory foam is not the right material for a wedge pillow, because it is not designed to hold its shape. Also, most memory foams smell weird and give off gas than irritates my nose and throat. But not the foam in this pillow. It is good old high density polyurethane foam, which does the job for years and years and never smells.

Difficult to know until you try it yourself
This is one of those things like a mattress - everyone is a little bit different and so what works well for one person is just awful for another. This is not a pillow; it's a foam wedge. And it's not just firm; it's almost hard. It has less give than that extra firm mattress in the showroom. It has to be in order to support your weight well enough to retain its height. I bought this for recovery from acute reflux. Absolutely no way I could lay on it (my wife tried it and seemed OK, but then again, she prefers to sleep on plywood). I put a 2" latex topper on it, which probably would work for many maybe even most people. I added a several down pillows to shape it better to my back and head, and that made it tolerable. Another important consideration is it's 24" width and length. Some people, particular a larger or heavy-set person, may have their arms dropping alongside. I'm pretty lean; this wasn't an issue for me. But I'm also 6' tall, and that creates a very common issue with these 24" length wedges: It doesn't extend far enough down my torso. This forces me to bend at the top of my waist, which puts some upward pressure on the diaphragm that of course is not good for reflux; this could be particularly true for someone with extra weight around the waist. It probably is also iffy for side sleepers. I managed to work with the pillows in such a way I could make that work, as long as I didn't turn back and forth. It's best with reflux to sleep on one's left side, so if you can just stay in that position this isn't quite as much an issue. But it's not easy, and definitely doesn't work well if you toss and turn. The 7" height is about right for reflux, especially if you add a topper and/or pillows as I did. My gastro guy recommends a minimum of 8" (IIRC so does Dr. Oz). Again, people are different in this respect. But 7" is probably adequate for most. But just be aware that, again depending on your size and shape, you may find yourself sliding off the bottom repeatedly. The only way around this that I can see is to use the longer more graduated wedges, the 32" and 42" products which are much more expensive. I finally gave up on this wedge, tried yet another more expensive alternative, and ended up with just elevating the bed on risers. The sliding issue is more of a challenge this way, but at least my body is straight so surface wise it's like sleeping on the bed regularly and therefore I'm getting a much better night's rest. The short of it is, you won't know until you experiment with it yourself. This particular wedge doesn't have the issues that many of the other products seem to and the price isn't outrageous, so it may be worth the gamble.

Bought it for my mother who has a problem laying straight on bed due to breathing issues. She sleeps well on this elevated pillow. I wish they could've provided an extra cover with it.

Best thing I have purchased for acid reflux - keeps the head elevated without causing a stiff neck. Also great when turned around and used to elevate the feet, after a long day standing - an easy way to have a quick rest with the feet elevated without stressing the back of the knee!

Das Kissen hat an sich keinen Qualitätsmangel, aber es ist unglaublich hart. Es gibt so gut wie garnicht nach. Perfekt für jemanden der eine feste Keilunterlage braucht! Mir wäre es lieber es würde etwas nachgeben beim drauf liegen.
