 Can be good, depending on what you are looking for August 30, 2010

I got this pillow over a year ago. Considering it was only $30, I wasn't expecting a miracle. In that sense, I was not disappointed.
However, one thing to watch out for is that the memory foam morphs back pretty quickly; so when you put your face onto it, the part thats in contact with your face sinks in, but the area surrounding your face rises up, and sometimes partially covers your eyes/nose if you sleep on your side. I found this annoying, but that is my own bias. If thats not a problem for others, then this pillow is not bad.
This thing has nothing to do with memory foam! August 16, 2010

I'm still testing the pillow, but by the feel of it it looks like it doesn't fit my particular neck, head etc. I'm a pretty average size woman (173cm height, 65 kg), but the pillow is clearly too small to rest my head on it. The front contour is way too high to sleep comfortably and the pillow's inner concave is too small to rest my head in it, because the top of my head touches already the contour on the other side of the pillow. Some people complain that their pillows smell, mine luckily does not. But as for memory foam - it's clearly not memory foam pillow. It's just a foam that does not have the qualities that make memory foam pillows so desired. Since it will not contour itself by your head and keep the shape, it doesn't also have the health improving effects associated with the usual memory foam pillows. Which is not to say it's a bad pillow, just don't buy it for qualities it doesn't have.
 Really Works! August 2, 2010

I got this item based on a recommendation. I was suprised how much this item has improved my sleep and stopped my morning backaches.

Bought this pillow for my wife. She loves it. Says it is very comfortable and definately helps keep her neck and back properly aligned as she sleeps.

I originally purchased one of these pillows, and then another a month later for my wife.
The pillow has two different sized "humps" on either side with a depression in the middle for your head to rest in. Basically, if you've never used one of these pillows, you pick whichever "hump" feels better resting your neck on. No matter how you sleep (back, side, stomach, hanging upside-down) all you do is make sure your head lies in the depression and the "hump" is pressing right into your neck.
The pillow comes with a zippered case, but I highly recommend that you use your own pillow case over the included one. It's easier to remove and launder your own case.
I read another review of this pillow (I think it was this one) where the reviewer was complaining about how "lightweight" the pillow felt, even though it says it's a "3-pound" pillow, so he sent it back! *containing my laughter* The pillow's foam density (3 pound) has NOTHING to do with its physical weight. 3-pound density refers to how dense/springy/stiff the pillow feels to your head when compressed by weight. I would call this "medium" in my limited experience with these type of pillows.
Here's the number one downside to this, or I will assume any, foam pillow. The SMELL! The enclosed sheet instructs you to place the pillow in an area to "air out" for 24-48 hours to let the odor subside. This is a complete joke.
Here's what I would do if I were you...
Remove the included cover and wash it -- don't put it back on the pillow yet.
Place the uncovered pillow in a room, or even out on your deck where it can't get wet and LEAVE IT THERE FOR THREE WEEKS! The smell will go away with time.
Place the cover back on the pillow, including your own pillow case, and enjoy.
Obviously, I would buy this pillow again, because I did already.
