Orthopaedic Foam Bed Wedge Back Support Pillow Cushion Aid For Acid Reflux, GERD, Reduced Neck and Back Pain, Breathing Problems With Washable Cover.

This is the first foam wedge that I have purchased and while on first opening it was larger than I had anticipated it is certainly extremely lightweight. When measured up it is slightly narrower than my pillow and fits nicely on my side of our king-size double bed. I tried it for the first time last night and used a relatively squashy pillow at the thick end of the wedge to support my head and neck. I was surprised by just how comfortable this arrangement was; the wedge is firm enough to offer support, yet pliable enough to give comfort. I had a really good night’s sleep and have only a little stiffness in my upper back this morning, which I think is to be expected with a new pillow arrangement. Not only did I not experience any episodes of reflux during the night I also woke up hungry, which rarely happens, so am now wondering whether sleeping in a raised position also improved the speed of my digestion. I agree with a previous reviewer in that differently-coloured cover options would be nice, as the blue doesn’t work with my bedroom décor, though I do appreciate that this is meant to be a physical aid rather than a decorative accessory. Ideally this would be used as a mattress tilter, however when I tried that it caused so much of a slant on my husband’s side of the bed that he was likely to end up on the floor! The foam wedge was also really comfortable to use sitting up. All in all I would say that this is an excellent product at an extraordinarily good price. I can see why this is a Best Seller and can highly recommend.

It's NOT a pillow! Just to point out to those complaining about this being too hard - it's not designed to be a big soft fluffy wedge shaped pillow! Regard it as a wedge shaped extension to your mattress and you won't go far wrong. It has to be firm so that it will support your body in an elevated position. (If it were a big soft fluffy pillow you'd just sink through it back onto your mattress). Yes, you will need to use pillows when lying on it (because it's an extension to your mattress) - this isn't a fault with the product, it's the way it's designed to achieve its purpose. It's not particularly comfortable to drop off to sleep on, but I don't use it when initially going to sleep. I suffer from gerd and as soon as I begin to taste that acid at the back of my throat, I lie on this and the symptoms go away and I eventually drop off without a problem. (This saves me from having to get up and go downstairs and sit in an armchair.) Wake up an hour or so later and take it off and everything's fine for the rest of the night. Difficult to sleep on it on your side as well. Depending how far up you sleep on it, you may end up with your feet stick over the end of your bed (which may be a problem is if you don't have an open end), but you could always cut it a bit shorter if you need to. Five stars simply because it relieves the reflux!!

This wedge is surprisingly lightweight but very strong. It is very hard so I have used it under the mattress which seems to work well for me. However, on opening the packaging there was a really strong chemical smell which I thought would dissipate throughout the day, as it was left unwrapped and \I used it that night. However, I woke up having real problems breathing because of the chemical smell which appeared to have filled the room. So it went outside in the garden to be aired for 24 hours and now it is fine, no smell at all. I would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the smell and I would have returned it if the smell hadn't gone but thankfully it aired well. The only other thing I would add is that if you have a double bed you would really need 2 of these.

Bought to raise me up in bed because I have acid reflux. They are much larger than I realised, tried one with a pillow on top and kept sliding down. Would have been good if smaller and slightly lower wedge. Only used one once, other unopened, therefore cannot send back. I intend to see if a local residential home would like them. They are very well made but, sadly not right for me.

Perfect for our needs. Supports my wife in several positions and after looking at alternatives it was a no brainer. To get sometthing on slightly differently, you are paying more than double for this. I have even used it and is extremely comfortable, also allowing changes in position easily. It feels nice and solid but might need a cover as I am not sure if it is wipe clean, although nothing has been splled on it, yet. I am sure a waterproof sheeting of some kind could protect it in some way, a latex sheet or similar. (Although that would make it slippery I think) All in all an excellent item and not sure how we lived without it, very helpful in contributing to a very nice sleep.

LOVE this for raising my legs in bed (great for swollen ankles after a long flight), but did NOT like it for my head (which I bought it for, to help with sleep apnoea) as far too hard (and I like hard mattresses). I used it on top of the mattress, with a pillow on top of the wedge. Could not try it under the mattress as it was to use one one side in a double bed. If you have shoulder impingement, be aware that it made mine hurt worse, even when I propped my arms up on pillows. My 12yo gets blocked noses and borrows the wedge, it lets him get some sleep. I tried it for the same and I got some rest but not sleep - it relieved the blocked nose somewhat but caused a lot of pain in my back and neck because it is too hard. Under my legs, however, I like it so much that I often use it even when I don't have swollen ankles. I can sleep on my side and on my back and be really comfortable. Others have said it smells bad - it does! I had to leave it by an open window, regularly rotating, for 3 full days and nights before I could bring it into my room. Manufacturing smell? Well packaged in a big sturdy box.

Correspond tout à fait à mes attentes. Sert de cale dos sur une banquette de jardin.

L'ho regalato per permettere a mia madre di guardare la televisione a letto, senza più quella pila di cuscini che facevano assumere alla sua schiena una postura scorretta. Acquisto azzeccatissimo. Il prodotto è perfetto, materiale buonissimo, accompagna la postura della schiena in modo corretto facendo sentire comoda la persona. Con questo prodotto, per poter guardare la televisione mia madre non ha bisogno di altro supporto se non di un solo cuscino che le tiene la testa un po' più alta. Consigliatissimo! Unica pecca è il prezzo costoso di una seconda federa, in caso si volesse il ricambio, (acquisto che non abbiamo fatto). Buona giornata :-)

Cumple con su función te eleva el respaldo. Ideal para gente con problemas respiratorios o estomacales. Es bastante firme y a algunos les puede molestar pero es mejor que sea así.

Dafür, dass dieses Keilkissen aus Schaumstoff ist, ist es sehr stabil. Bei Schaumstoff erwartet man im allgemeinen, dass er nachgiebt, dies ist hier nicht der Fall. Für die tolle Qualität, ist das Kissen ziemlich günstig. Wer auch immer gedenkt sich einen solchen Keil anzuschaffen, ist mit diesem Produkt gut bedient.

...dato 5 stelle se la federa sostitutiva non costasse tanto quanto il cuscino. Cuscini accatastati mi hanno rovinato il dorso e poi si è aggiunto il reflusso gastrico così ho trovato la soluzione con questo che è molto rigido a cui aggiungo un cuscino in memory per la nuca e poi leggo o guardo la tv senza tensioni al collo, alle spalle, al dorso. Vi consiglio di mettere un supporto sotto alle ginocchia quando lo usate per scaricare la zona lombare e le anche. Lo si può usare in diversi modi secondo le proprie esigenze. Molto leggero. Lo consiglio consapevoli dei suoi limiti.
