Bought it as a gift. They used it for a long haul flight, and were surprised how comfortable it was. Have to admit, it doesn’t feel so comfortable when holding it in your hands, but following the raving review, I think I may purchase one for myself…
Purchased as a gift for someone undergoing medical treatment that causes them to nap during the day in any chair or sofa they find themselves in, but they’d been waking up with a sore neck. This has been a great solution! They begin to feel drowsy, put it on, and know that they’ll have a comfortable snooze even sitting up! So, it’s not just for travel 😉
This pillow is never leaving me! It’s brilliant. The material itself is very comfortable, and you do feel supported. There is a bit of a learning curve to get the right positioning for you, and is quite trial and error. I couldn’t find any position towards the front that worked for me, but quickly got left and right positioning sorted.
Unexpected side benefit I discovered, which I haven’t seen referred to at all. This is brilliant if you are a fatigue sufferer and sometimes have those ‘my head feels too heavy for my neck to support it’ days. I can put it on and work comfortably instead of feeling I have to go back to bed.
The only potential issue/downsides with it I found were:
1) wearing it with my beloved noise cancelling cans was uncomfortable. Not the fault of the designers, they are big! It also was uncomfortable with Virgin Atlantic supplied headphones, so bear that in mind. However, I found it fine with both foam and flight earplugs, and my in ear back ups. (Yes, I’m slightly obsessed with having headphones on me at all times).
2) I am a person that needs to change positions often if I can’t get to sleep. I had a major case of restless legs on the overnight flight, and kept finding I needed to adjust my (attempted) sleeping position. Because of the design of this pillow, this is a bit more hassle than with a standard design travel pillow. Not a flaw, just a reality of the design. Standard travel pillows have never ever worked for me, so I’m prepared to put up with that.
3) possibly a more major issue if I’m not the only one. I noticed a rash on my neck on the opposite side to where the support part was; I’ve put the fabric part in the wash in case it was a treatment issue or something it came into contact with on the plane; alternatively it may be that I’m allergic to the velcro hook and loop type fastener that is used on the product. I really hope not because this is the most perfect travel pillow otherwise. I’ll try and report back on this point.
