EPABO Contour Memory Foam Pillow Orthopedic Sleeping Pillows, Ergonomic Cervical Pillow for Neck Pain - for Side Sleepers, Back and Stomach Sleepers, Free Pillowcase Included (Firm & Standard Size

I've been using various types of pillows of various thickness and firmness and it has been extremely hard to find the right one. For years, I've gone through many different pillows, most end up causing some sort of ache by the end of the night. I got this pillow based on the reviews, knowing however that not everyone likes the same pillow. This is the first pillow of this type I've purchased with the specific intent to improve my posture while I sleep and hopefully improve the quality of my rest. I am a side and back sleeper, and find myself shifting MANY times from side to side, to my back all through the night. I got this pillow, and after using it for a few minutes I began to feel an ache in my neck. I thought maybe it was too hard...figured maybe if I slept on it all night long, I would regret it with a crook in the neck for days, so after only those few minutes I bailed on it and put my regular setup of pillows. Disappointed that perhaps I'd have to return it. The next night, I decided to try it again, but decided to intentionally go a little longer. I probably used it for maybe 30 minutes this time, before I felt like an ache was beginning to develop in my neck or shoulders. I bailed on it again, and went with my usual setup. Determined to give it a fair shake, but not wanting to cause a lot of pain because of it, I decided to try again the third night and essentially figured I'd increasingly add more time each night. Well, I must of been really tired, or something in my posture clicked because the next think I remember, I was waking up in the morning having felt quite rested. I slept on the pillow all night long, with no aches whatsoever. Since that third night, I have slept ONLY on this pillow and while I haven't yet had it for a month, I find that I shift MUCH less than before. And because the pillow maintains its support all night, I do not wake several times to readjust my old pillow setup for better support throughout the nights. I feel like my deep sleep cycles last longer. I'll update again later if things change but for now I'd encourage you to give it a fair shake. If you've been sleeping on something else that holds your neck differently, you may need to work yourself into this in stages like me. I love that both ends of the pillow have a bit of a higher contour than the center in order to hold your spine straight while on my sides. I can definitely feel the difference in the better support throughout the night. And while I might have thought it was too firm initially, it is just right. And while I might have felt like it wasn't high enough, I realize now it is just the right height. If there is any disadvantage with this pillow, the only thing I can say is that I'm used to having the soft cool feel of my pillows up around my checks while resting/sleeping and this does not provide that, but the advantages seem to far outweigh this and I suspect in time I'll get used to this new feel and not miss the old setup in any way.

I'm writing this review after my 5th purchase of this same pillow since 2019. I've had cervical (neck) disk issues since 2014 and tried a lot of different pillows to help. This pillow has been the clear winner for me - the combination of physical therapy and this supportive pillow has made a TREMENDOUS difference in pain and flare ups. I bring my pillow with me everywhere I travel (I've tried going without and the difference in my sleep quality is well worth the effort of packing it). A few of my older ones I have stashed in places we visit regularly (grandparents and in-laws houses). The fact that you can customize this one to your needs is wonderful. Personally, I've found that I need the small center insert removed for back sleeping, but need a little more height on the sides for side sleeping. The customer service will send you inserts for free and have been so helpful to work with to find the perfect fit. I've actually been shocked by how good the customer support is! If there's a minor critique it's that the memory foam starts to wear out some after about a year/year-and-a-half of regular use. That said, compared to other cervical pillows, the price point is totally reasonable and I don't mind replacing them about that often.

I ordered an EPABO pillow based on the advice of a friend who loves hers. Initially, I thought I was going to have to return it. It was hard, not comfortable and hurt, rather than helped my neck pain. Instructions came with the pillow, "if you sleep on your side do this, if you sleep on your back...but I thought they were confusing. With that said, the company made it clear they were available to help in any way and to contact them with questions. Anyway, part of the instructions recommended removing an inner padded piece inside the pillow if the pillow was too firm and if that didn't work, contact the company and they would send a softer version of the pillow. I removed the inside piece and it made all the difference. For the most part, using the pillow helps me get a better night's sleep and I wake-up with minimal to no neck pain and no headaches. After some trial and error, it has worked out well for me. Thank You EPABO!

Nice pillow

This is the best. Large pillow compared to others. My neck support is much bette and comfortable.

Today is 5/16/25 and my pillow came yesterday 5/15/. I'm happy with my new pillow. I've been having problems the last few months with a pinched nerve in my neck where the pain would radiate in my chest because of poor posture and bad pillows. I would stuff two pillows under my head that were no good and that added to the pain. After scrolling here on Amazon for pillows that support head and neck then reading reviews I finally landed on this pillow. There were a few negative reviews but honestly sometimes a not so good product slips by. Where I was sold was when I watched a young gentleman demonstrate a couple of these pillows. I figured I'll take a chance even though another gentleman was disappointed and tossed the pillow on the floor. I thought to myself I'll still take a chance. I'm glad I did! I bought the queen size one but I should've bought the standard but onward, the pillow was easy to use and there was no smell to it. After about 45 minutes the pillow fluffed up. It's firm but soft if that makes sense? It cradled my head and supported my neck. The shape is great and very comfortable and a great fit. While lying on it for a couple of hours my neck pain started to subside and when I fell asleep I slept the whole night. Upon waking this morning my neck pain is gone! It's worth the investment! Plus it is easy to wash just follow the instructions. This is my favorite pillow I love the shape and design! Truly awesome!

Not good for my neck. I was disappointed. It is a surprisingly low profile pillow.

I purchased this because I am tall with a long neck and need good support. On top of that I have sleep apnea. I have struggled with many pillows over the years. This pillow has some of the best reviews so I took a chance and I was pleased! Not as thick as some of the pillows out there. And squeezing the material in my hand I had my doubts about the firmness and support claims, but I tried it out. LOVED IT IMMEDIATELY! I got such a good night sleep! I do not find it overly firm - I find it perfect for me. I would love to see this as a king size variant of this product as it is a bit smaller than I am used to, but otherwise it just works. Love it! Will order again when I need to!

Is alright when it comes to comfort.. but does not provide the support stated. Not worth the amount I paid.

Superb. My neck is better now

It is excellent.
