Pillow is useless
April 22, 2008
 (1 out of 5) by CHRIS G, Alexander, AR
"I bought the pillow to assist with my sleeping. It proved to be useless. It hurt my neck, it did not help to avoid hitting the mask off my face, it was so small that it did not help prevent my "gerd" from acting up because there was not enough elevation. I am going to return it to get my money back."

"This pillow works pretty well -- no strain on my neck and I really like the way my ears don't get squashed when I lie on my sides. I recommend it to anyone with cervical spine problems and/or C-PAP useage."

Sleep Aid CPAP Pillow

"The pillow has definitely help minimize the mask leaks while sleeping. I do not wake up as often as with a regular pillow.
It would be nice if the pillow "holes" were a little bigger to accomodate the mask and hose more easly."

Too Thin
December 18, 2007
(2 out of 5) by Vernon T.
"Even though the first reviewer said that the pillow was too thin, I normally sleep on a very thin pillow and thought it might work for me. I was wrong. Unfortunately the pillow is fairly expensive and there is no opportunity to even feel it before irrevocably purchasing.
The center portion used when sleeping on my back is thinner than my usual pillow but I was able to adjust to that. When on my side, the pillow does give clearance for the mask so that is a plus. However the portion of the pillow used when on my side, while thicker than the center, is much too compressible to give adequate support. My shoulder aches after only a short time on my side. I cannot use it. I agree with the first reviewer that my pillow compresses much, much more when on my side than the one shown in the pictures – they must have used a different pillow."

Too thin and uncomfortable
November 19, 2007
(1 out of 5) by Robert P.
"I had high hopes for this pillow - but was very disapointed. The pillow is very thin - the point where your head lies is only about 1" thick. There is no neck support because the 3" of foam is highly compressible. The shape of the pillow seems like it should work, but the thinness of the material makes it as uncomfortable as using no pillow at all. Look closely at the pictures of the models lieing on their sides - you can see that their shoulders on the side next to the bed are either smushed forward or somehow lieing below the level of the pillow. It is very uncomfortable. I am going to try adding 2" - 3" of foam pad underneath the pillow to see if that helps - otherwise I am still looking for a solution."
