7.5 Inch Bed Wedge Pillow for Acid Reflux or Sleeping | 1.5 Inch Memory Foam Top with Stay Cool Cover | Incline Leg Elevation Pillows | Ideal for Gerd, Heartburn, and Snoring (30.5"Wx33"Lx7"H)

I have sciatica. I use to sleep on my side. I could barely walk when I got up the pain was so great. I went in the hospital for flu and my sciatica went away! Almost totally. 95% better!. I would fall asleep watching tv. I was sleeping in the elevated hospital bed on my back with my upper-body elevated, and my knees elevated. I noticed no pain when I got out of bed! As soon as I got home, I found this product on Amazon. It elevates my upper - body and I put pillows under my knees. I am pain free and medication free! I trained myself to sleep on my back and it is so worth it! I almost had surgery! Now life is good. Of course a expensive adjustable bed would do the same job.

Bought it while pregnant so I wasn't sleep flat on my back. I was having a lot of hip pain so side sleeping was a no go. I was able to get some sleep with this. Good quality, the smell (off gassing) takes a bit to go away. I left it in the sun for a few days

I am very pleased with the pillow. It has helped improve my sleeping and with combatting the acid reflux I suffer from .

Ordered this for snoring issues — inherited from my dad. But as a 5’2” woman, this was troubling. Especially when your husband of 20 years can’t wake you to stop snoring and sleeps in the guest room. This trend has ended with this wonderful pillow! He reports that my snoring has stopped (3 weeks and counting) and he can remain in our bedroom all night. Yay! The pillow arrives tightly compressed but it unfolded with no problems in about 40 minutes. It is very soft (memory foam) and comfortable for me, but may be too soft for heavier people. This is true for my husband. We ordered a similar wedge pillow for him (different brand) that was much firmer and which some customers said they returned for being “too hard.” The firmness of the other brand was perfect for him — he sank into this pillow so much it provided very little lift or support for him. But I found that this pillow gave me plenty of support, and the gentle rise to 7” at the top was perfect for me. If you are considering a wedge pillow for acid-reflux issues (like my husband), then the lift and support are key factors in your choice of pillow. Take into account your size and sleeping habits. The smaller size was also perfect for me — my arms rest comfortably on the pillow all night and never fall off. When ordering, we considered the pillow dimensions because we knew feeling stiff if your arms fall off the wedge during the night, you can wake with stiffness or feeling uncomfortable. Again, we ordered the larger size (different brand) for my husband, who is 5’10” and has wide shoulders. The pillows come with a removable, zipper cover, but it is quite tight-fitting. After reading about the problems others had trying to fit the pillow back into the cover, we ordered pillow covers (different company) that fit the dimensions of our 2 different pillows. These were like regular pillow covers in that they were slightly larger than the pillows, so were easy to put on. They were also thick (400 count), all-cotton zippered covers and although we’ve only used them one night so far, I’m prepared to ordered a second set for us. One tip we can share about using wedge pillows: Don’t put the top of the wedge right up against your headboard/wall because then you can’t get the full benefit of the wedge's lift. After trial and error, we found that by leaving the top of the wedge about 3-4” from the headboard, we got a more comfortable night’s sleep — the head doesn’t hit the headboard and we got more lift. Our bed pillows are about ¼ - ⅓ off the top of the wedge but that seems to work best for us. Highly recommend the Bamboo Wedge pillow. It has been a life saver for me.

This pillow has the right thickness to elevate my chest at a 30-degree angle to help with my GERD. I had tried a 6-inch pillow before and it did not help at all. What I really like about this model is that it is also a few inches longer than most wedge pillows (33" vs 24"). This way it supports my body from the hips up, preventing my back from bending sideways when I sleep on my side. The bamboo cover is very soft, too—no static, no itchiness, no slip. While the pillow is wide enough to allow turning around comfortably in your sleep, you might find it too wide if you sleep with a partner in a double bed, as opposed to a queen or king size bed. That would be the only downside.
