I recently received a TEMPUR-Neck Pillow from Tempurpedic for review. This pillos is a classic among the Tempurpedic line. I remember when this was first available in the late 1990s. It was revolutionary in that it veered from the traditional pillow shape and specifically addressed dedicated side sleepers. No doubt this pillow takes some getting used to but it has stood the test of time. The pillow currently retails at $99 for a medium size.
Here’s a picture of the pillow in the packaging.
Below is a video of me with the pillow. You’ll also get a sense of how the foam reacts and how it will look out of the packaging.
Here are the specification of the pillow according to the Tempurpedic website:
TEMPUR® material
100% Polyester Knit Cover
Removable/washable cover
Firm
Back or side sleepers
Small: 20″ x 11″ x 3″
Medium: 20″ x 13″ x 4″
Large: 20″ x 12″ x 4.5″
Travel: 10″ x 12″ x 4″
Findings
Although I am mostly a stomach sleeper, I can appreciate how this works for side and back sleepers by giving proper support for your neck while keeping you in alignment. Belos is a view of the contouring of the pillow.
Here’s a quick video of how the pillow reacts. I really like how this pillow slowly contours. That feeling isn’t for everyone but Tempurpedic is known for it and it offers excellent pressure relief.
The cover is removeable and washable which is a nice feature. Here’s a picture of the zipper.
Conclusion
I highly recommend side sleepers who aren’t getting good support to try out at neck pillow. Tempurpedic has been making them for decades and they design has stood the test of time. If you’re wondering what size to get, they have a nice chart on their website that recommends a size based on your height. Often it seems that people don’t have the right loft in their pillow causing their head to get out of alignment.
